The classes here are excellent, and although they can be quite demanding and high-impact, they are always fun.
You can walk in at any time in the day and there will be something going on, and they have a HUGE range of classes. I rocked up on a Monday night, on a whim, and I decided to go for a more relaxed class. Dynamic flow yoga is actually more tiring than your usual class; theres not much time to stop and rest like there sometimes is! You move from pose to pose in a flowing manner and the focus is on holding the poses with strength, breathing well and being strong (basically, it does what it says on the tin).
The teacher was really supportive, and made everyone feel like it was a one-to-one class. She offered options for the less yoga-tastic in the group and pushed the regulars to take each pose further. It was one of the best yoga classes I have done. Having said all of that, its slightly off-putting to be able to hear the pumping music leaking in from next door while you’re in ‘relaxation’ at the end of the class!
All in all, a great class. Challenging without being horrendous, nice friendly group (good job really, as we were all jammed in pretty close) and fab teacher.
Best bit – felt challenged but also relaxed
Worst bit – the studio is more set-up for pumping dance classes than relaxing yoga
Good for – improving your yoga
Score – 8/10
