‘Yoga allows you to find a new kind of freedom that you may not have known even existed.’ - B K S Iyengar

What is yoga all about?

Yoga is an ancient practice designed to harmonize mind, body, and breath. From restorative yoga to a powerful, meditative vinyasa flow, yoga can help us to unwind, create more space and release, and ultimately a deeper connection with ourselves, our bodies, and the greater world around us. The main components of a yoga practice are asanas or postures (a series of movements designed to increase strength and flexibility) and the practice of breathing and meditation. Yoga literally translates as ‘to yoke’ which indicates union or oneness.
