During the class you will learn breathing exercises, postures and kriyas (a series of specially designed exercises) that you can use to powerfully enliven your physical and energy body. A Kundalini Yoga Meditation and a Sound Relaxation (Gentle Gong or Crystal Bowls) will also be integrated into the class. After the class you will feel more aware, vibrant, centred and relaxed.

Reset, Reconnect & Revive
An alchemy of traditional yoga practices, creative flows and fiery moments to remove stagnation and feel your most alive, connected self.
Guided by my own self study + practice I share what is most potent from experience so that in just 1 hour you can benefit from a full reset that will last beyond our time together.
We go slow, soft and fluid to support the smooth flow of energy through the body (really important during spring) maybe getting a little sweaty along the way but that’s optional
You may also make some new local yoga buddies. What’s not to like.
Everything is provided so just book your place and roll on down to @sensatespaandstudios

Lucy Payne
Hatha Flow Yoga
I started yoga in 2000 to help me stretch and strengthen my body at a time when I was doing lots of running. I soon realised that yoga was not just about stretching, it was so much more. I always felt better physically and mentally after a yoga class so I continued attending. After years of regular classes I decided to become a yoga teacher, completing my training in 2017, and have been teaching ever since.
My classes are open to everyone whether you are a beginner or already enjoy yoga. I include yoga asana and short flow sequences to strengthen and stretch the body. I also teach pranayama (breath) practice in each class to promote restoration and wellbeing.

Gentle Yoga for Midlife with Monika
A friendly and welcoming class designed to support people in midlife, helping unlock stiff joints, ease aching shoulders,

ease.
Gentle yoga and mindful movement is beneficial for everyone in midlife. We work slowly and at your level, with lots of
opportunity for rest. Each week we focus on yoga-inspired movement and poses to build all-round strength and mobility -
accessible, but surprisingly effective work - with a little focus on the breath and meditation to create a sense of calm.

Strengthen and soften (your way), body and mind, together with the uplifting energy of a group class.

Yoga for New Mothers – Wednesdays 10.30 - 11.30am / 7 Week Courses or drop in
Guided mind-body care, and friendly community, for mothers to practice gentle yoga with their baby.

Vinyasa Flow Yoga
Vinyasa Flow
Thursdays
6pm - 7pm
This is a Vinyasa class inspired by seasonal energies. We will move towards inner alignment through flowing sequences, fun balances, meditation, and pranayama. Every body is welcome!
I've been practising yoga for seventeen years and it has genuinely transformed my life. In my day job I'm an academic; I turned to yoga as a way to get out of my brain and into my body. I thought it would help me connect to my embodiment and integrate my spiritual, physical, and psychological experiences. But yoga has brought me so much more: I think of it now as a technology of the spirit, mind, and body. I qualified as a teacher so I could share the practices, and the growth that they bring, with other people. I have practised many styles: Kundalini, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin, and Hot.
In my teaching I'll lead you towards an expansive and grounding experience, with plenty of modifications and alignment cues. It's my aim to help people meet themselves on the mat in nourishing ways.

Rise & Shine Yoga
Rise & Shine Yoga
Fridays
7.30 - 8.30am
Class starts 9th January 2026
Rise and Shine with my morning yoga flow class! Fridays 7.30-8.30am. Weather bleak overhead? Let's generate a little sunshine of our own with a yoga flow to warm you up, stretch you out, find some balance and set you up for the day.
My classes are Vinyasa style, generating warmth and strength, with lots of options and invitations to rest where you need to make it accessible to everybody.
Do you need to offset your other training with some mindful balance, stretch and mobility? All while taking a micro-retreat in your week, time out to pause, reset and find some calm? We have some fun in these classes, having a go, wobbling, trying again, laughing it off, and keeping on flowing. A moving meditation, time to tune into how you're feeling and, importantly, LSP is open for coffee immediately afterwards!
I was first introduced to yoga 20 years ago and have practised different styles since, and particularly enjoy and practice Vinyasa. Since having children I've been more aware of how yoga can support us through different life phases, and help us to really listen to our bodies. It is easy to forget but you always feel better for moving!
As well as training in Level 3 Yoga Teacher Training, I'm also trained in Level 2 Exercise to Music and have been regularly teaching dance fitness, stretch and mobility and Les Mills BodyBalance. I'm CIMSPA registered and my training has incorporated anatomy and physiology, principles of exercise and fitness and over 200 hours of yoga teacher training.

1.5 hr Restorative Yoga
Friday 6.00pm
In Restorative classes we follow a gentle sequence of poses, mainly seated and reclining, designed to bring a calmness and release to both body and mind.
It is practised at a slower pace, focusing on staying in poses for longer, on stillness and deep breathing.
Restorative yoga supports and encourages physical, mental and emotional relaxation.
Joanna incorporates some simple breathing techniques which aid the release of tension, anxiety, pain and stress.
These techniques also help to relieve insomnia.
* deeply relaxes the body
* stills the busy mind
* releases muscular tension, improving mobility and flexibility
* balances the nervous system
* boosts the immune system
Quote
"Restorative yoga is for everyone, not just those who are recovering from illness or injury.
My classes are both energising and deeply restorative, resulting in you feeling lighter and calmer as you walk out the door.
Beginners and more experienced are welcome, regardless of your level or ability.
I look forward to welcoming you”.

Restorative yoga is a deeply relaxing style of yoga that is all about slowing down and opening your body through passive stretching. We also combine deep breathing, long holds of supported and modified yoga poses. Expect to use lots of props for a single pose that allows the body to be supported so the muscles can relax deeply. Restorative yoga was founded by B.S.K. Iyengar and was traditionally used to get your yoga practice when you were tired, sick, or injured. It is now a popular style of yoga that supports the body to rest and relax when stressed or busy and you need relief from over activity. At the end of the session you can be left feeling calm, relaxed, and your body open and refreshed.
