A typical class is comprised of:

  • breath awareness and breathing practices
  • guided relaxation (savasana)
Beginners may slot into Fundamentals, Yoga 1 or Gentle (Gentle recommended for 60+ age group who are new to yoga) Yoga 1 Fundamentals: An introduction to the practice of yoga. Exploration of the breath, movement patterns, basic asanas and deep relaxation is included. Yoga 1: This class is suitable for all levels including beginners. We explore yoga and movement to find a balance between fluidity and clear alignment, so that we may move with more ease, comfort and integrity. Yoga 2: This class will cultivate breathing, strength, cohesion, flexibility and deep relaxation. The classes will include vinyasa (dynamic flow), and some of the more challenging postures so is not suitable for complete beginners. Gentle: This class suits those who would like an on-going gentle practice (perhaps due to age and/or health condition). The classes will include yoga asanas, gentle flows, somatics, breathing practices and deep relaxation. Pregnancy Yoga: Pregnancy yoga can help women enjoy their pregnancy by minimising discomfort, cultivating breath awareness and strengthening the body in preparation for labour and motherhood. Pregnancy yoga also provides a space for women to connect in with baby, as well as being a wonderful place to spend time with other 'mums to be'. WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
We'd always wanted to try yoga as we'd heard how good it was for strengthening the body and relieving stress. However, as we'd never been to a class before, and were both fairly un-stretchy and recovering from injury, we were nervous about committing to a class. Joining The Yoga Place was the best decision we've made - the classes are small, personal and non-threatening. Most important, we're learning yoga and having fun at the same time. If you're like us and want to give yoga a try - then you have to go to The Yoga Place. Trust me, you'll never look back! Mel & Colin, Christchurch Pregnancy yoga at The Yoga Place was the highlight of my week throughout my pregnancy. A gentle stretch and tone on an ever-changing body, a holiday for the brain from a busy world, physically bonding with your growing baby. Yoga when pregnant is really the yoga I love best. I would put it on the must-do list when brewing your precious bundle. Juliet, Christchurch I came to The Yoga Place as a beginner who needed some ‘me time’ and to do something to increase my physical wellbeing. I have loved the classes and how they have progressed and I have been able to challenge myself further. Jo’s calm and interactive teaching style is fantastic – she talks you through the sequences and helps to correct your postures while you are learning. I am in my 3rd term now and have definitely increased my strength and balance in particular. I would highly recommend the The Yoga Place to others. Clare, Christchurch
