Yoga at The snug - wellbeing studio
Welcome to Flow Yoga and Meditation.
Yoga is an ancient form of exercise for the mind and body, originating around 5000 years ago in India. The exercises are a combination of breath work, stretching, and strengthening which improve tone, flexibility and strength of the body, improving the flow of energy and releasing stress and tension in the body.
Our yoga classes are based on the principles of Hatha yoga, which places emphasis on the subtleties of correct postural alignment and breathwork. We offer a range of classes, with something to suit all abilities (and ages).
Classes are held in the beautiful tranquility of The Snug our own private boutique wellbeing studio, a dedicated space for calmness, connection and community. All equipment is provided, so you can turn up ready to ease into your flow.

Yin Yoga
Relax ~ Release ~ Restore
Yin Yoga Relax and Restore
An hour of blissfully tranquil Yin Yoga. Enjoy a deep sense of calm and relaxation through a series of yin yoga postures, deep breath work and guided meditation.
Yin is a restorative mat based yoga practice, focusing on stillness and calm. Easing slowly from posture to posture, working with deep calming breath work, we flow soothingly from one posture to another, holding each posture for a number of minutes as we enjoy the release of our muscles softening and tension melting away.
Yin Yoga gently releases and eases the fascia of the muscles, slows the heart rate, brings a gentle mindfulness to the body and breath, creating a deep sense of tranquility.
Your relaxation is supported by bolsters, blankets and props, to allow you to fully let go and be carried to calm.
The second part of the session is a long relaxing yoga Nidra to leave you feeling completely restored.
All abilities welcome, including complete beginners.
