​​​​​​

​

• Raja Yoga & Yoga Nidra
  Thursdays 18:30-19:45 (fortnightly - 2nd & last Thursday of the month)

​

       Join Joanne for a beautiful start end to the day, a candlelit space to slow down, quieten the mind & reconnect with your inner stillness.
Drawing from the classical teachings of Raja Yoga & Transformational Yoga, we explore breath, awareness, meditation & gentle movement to cultivate greater clarity, balance & presence.
We then journey into the deeply restorative practice of Yoga Nidra — yogic sleep, guiding the body into profound relaxation whilst remaining gently awake & aware.
A nurturing practice for releasing the stresses of the day, settling the nervous system & creating space for deeper rest, inner connection & quiet reflection. Each session offers a little time to simply *be* — with an optional cup of tea and gentle connection after class if you wish. Suitable for all levels, ages & abilities.
No previous meditation or yoga experience needed.

One evening each month

A beautiful space to pause, breathe & turn inward. Join Joanne for a gentle practice combining pranayama (breathwork), guided meditation & periods of stillness to settle the body, quieten the mind & reconnect with yourself.

We will raise our frequency through meditation, with the intention of allowing the peace, compassion & positive energy we cultivate within to ripple outward into the world.
Practice can be seated on the floor or on a chair & you won't be sitting the whole hour!

No previous meditation experience needed. Suitable for all levels & ages/abilities.
