Yoga with Aline

This class is for anyone looking to energise, stretch and become more present in their bodies.

These are slow-flowing classes focus on physical alignment, breath work and mindfulness.

Open to beginners and anyone wanting to revisit the foundations and the 'building blocks' of yoga, helping you to develop confidence, strength, stability and presence.

Join me from the comfort of your home to bring more balance to your day and week.

This class integrates gentle movement asana (poses), pranayama (breathing practices) and meditation techniques.

All these elements combined create a powerful recipe to enhance a sense of inner peace, calm, clarity and an overall relaxation and a soothing of the body and mind.

A great class to help you unwind from the day and enable restful sleep.

Suitable for all levels.

Make some time in your schedule to recharge and relax!

During these classes we carefully merge a yin and restorative yoga sequence.

This powerful combination of both yin and restorative yoga allows you to completely relax and surrender the body and mind. A yin yoga practice helps you to access the deeper layers of the body. The poses works on releasing constrictions in the connective tissue, ligaments, and tendons that support the joints.

With restorative yoga,we relax into the stretch or posture with the aid of props so we really can let go of tension and focus on our breath. This practice stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system (our rest and digest) which undoes the stress response in our bodies.

Start your weekend with energy, increased vitality and a calm, clear mind.

This 75 minutes class is a fusion between the more traditional Hatha Yoga inspired by the Sivananda tradition, and mindful, explorative movement.

This class integrates subtle energy work, chanting, asana (poses), pranayama (breathing practices), where self-inquiry is welcomed. 

Suitable for intermediate students.

Classes vary between a more gentle and strong approach. 

Break away from the busyness of life, feel brighter and lighter ahead of the weekend!

In this class we enjoy a good stretch, moving mindfully through a variety of postures (seated, standing, and supine poses) and relaxation.

In this traditional Hatha yoga class, we focus on stretching, alignment and breath awareness.

NEW TERM DATES: 8th SEPT - 20th OCT

Join me at the Heath to mark this year’s Autumn equinox, in partnership with the Friends of the Therfield Heath

The Autumnal Equinox marks the official start of Autumn and two moments in the year: when the Sun is exactly above the Equator and day and night are of equal length.

This outdoor class will offer the perfect way to connect with the changing of the seasons in the exceptional spot that is the Heath!

SUNDAY STILLNESS- ALIGNING TO AUTUMN WITH YIN YOGA AND YOGA NIDRA

Take some time to get cosy as the nights draw in... allow yourself some time to relax and renew, to reestablish balance in yourself as we settle into Autumn.

A Yin Yoga practice is a wonderful way to regain some centring and embrace the changing seasons.

Autumn is considered a time for letting go. To surrender. To release. To exhale.

We will explore postures to stimulate the lung and large intestine meridians (related to the Metal element) which connects us to Autumn.

Honouring transitions helps bring us into alignment with nature. It assists in letting go of habitual negative thought patterns and opens us to new potential.

The practise will end with a wonderful healing Yoga Nidra.

Yoga nidra, or yogic sleep as it is commonly known, is an immensely powerful meditation technique, and one of the easiest yoga practices to develop and maintain. Practised in savasana (corpse pose), this systematic meditation takes you through the Pancha Maya kosha (five layers of self), leaving you with a sense of wholeness.

You’ll leave feeling rejuvenated, more relaxed, clearer and ready for the week ahead!
