Hatha Flow
(75 mins, intermediate level)
This practice is for anyone with some yoga experience who enjoys a flowing style of yoga. We start with quiet centring, attuning to the breath, before beginning to move, stretch and strengthen in equal measure. We build towards a fluid vinyasa-style sequence of standing yoga postures and the peak of the practice. Then we wind down through quieter floor-based postures before lingering in a long savasana.
Suitable for:
Those with some yoga experience and minimal injuries.
