Yoga Styles
Vajrasati yoga combines the postures, breathing and meditation techniques of classical/modern postural yoga, along with innovative explorations outside ‘traditional’ postures from a conscious, subtle and energetic alignment perspective. The classes are always suitable for all levels and won't fail to integrate the newest student whilst providing a fresh perspective for very experienced students.
Accessibility for the newcomer with detailed clear instruction and depth for even the most experienced practitioners allows for an inclusive practice which is at the heart of Vajrasati yoga. Vajrasati draws on traditional teachings of yoga philosophy and brings them to life through an embodied understanding to truly give the student the experience of yoga/union beyond just a physical exercise, but a whole-being experience.
Scaravelli-Inspired Hatha Yoga enjoys traditional Yoga postures and practices with particular attention to the spine and how we breathe and how we rest on the ground. It is suitable for every-body.
