All classes are taught by me Karen Patterson. My aim is for my students to develop the clarity and strength to take charge of their lives as individuals. We do this by developing mental clarity and physical strength in yoga. In the exercises, certain parts of the body are strengthened to give core stability, whilst other parts become more relaxed, flexible and free. Structuring the movements in this way gives the positions a graceful, artistic form. Some of the exercises are light and energising, others work more to build up strength, and others again are done with calmer, more focused awareness. This combination of calmness, strength and energy creates a feeling of centred alertness and aliveness. The weekly classes are always based around a central theme with a main learning step each week. This means that you understand what you do and why you are doing it and can make better progress.
