Classes explained:
| Power Yoga |
Combines flowing postures with rhythmic breathing for an intense body-mind workout. Based on Ashtanga Yoga it has the ability to build strength, increase endurance, release tension and create more flexibility in the entire body. |
| Hatha Yoga |
The discipline of Hatha Yoga aims at the release of tensions and stress in the body through the physical approach of its postures called asanas. The distinctive method of classical Hatha is the way asanas are performed, slowly and mindfully. The mind is helped to create a "feel" for the body through the intuitive performance of the asanas. The body responds by becoming stronger and more flexible, releasing the resistance established by the lack of practice and old habits. |

Iyengar is mainly responsible for bringing yoga to the West. The Iyengar style of yoga is probably the most widely practised form of yoga in Europe and America. It will help individuals to make progress according to their own abilities, and is a methodical, progressive inclusive approach, emphasising detailed correctness and absolute safety. |
