Yoga

Create Space

Yoga brings together our outer and inner worlds – combining strength, resilience and presence in both body and mind. Working with movement, breath and mindfulness we aim to find presence on and off the mat.

Yoga will help you create space where there is tightness, strength where there is instability and calm where there is chaos. It will help you to move better but more than that – to move with mindful awareness and self acceptance, without judgement.

We have an everchanging and varied range of yoga teachers and styles at Sandwickhill Studios – to help you find the perfect fit. Each brings something different to the table, and allows you to explore your yoga practice in your own way – whether you’re looking for a slow and chilled yin experience, a more powerful dynamic class, or anything in-between.

Types of Yoga

Flow Yoga

Flow or dynamic yoga, also know as Vinyasa yoga, involves moving through a series of postures in a dynamic way, flowing with the breath from one pose to the next. Poses and sequences will vary from class to class and teacher to teacher. It is one of the most popular yoga styles in the Western world. Moving with the breath can help find clarity and focus, building heat in the body can improve flexibility and typically a flow class will involve postures and transitions that build inner and outer strength. Despite the dynamic element of these classes they also usually incorporate longer holds, and opportunities to find presence and peace. It is this balance of movement and stillness, ying and yang, effort and ease, that helps create a feeling of deep relaxation.

Heated Yoga

Heated yoga covers a myriad of styles, from dynamic vinyasa to power yoga to yin - but the one thing they all have in common is that they take place in a heated room. Our studio uses infrared panels to provide an even heat - 30 to 39 degrees for hot yoga, and around 24 - 27 for warm classes. Coming into a heated room is a treat during Hebridean winters when the weather is often wild. Not only that but the heat helps you focus and find clarity, anchoring you in each breath. You'll feel more flexible (so be careful not to overstretch) which can feel great on tight bodies. You'll sweat more (this isn't the same as detoxing despite claims to the contrary - your liver and kidneys do that) so stay stay hydrated and drink plenty water. Hot yoga may feel more intense so listen to your body, stay connected to your breath and enjoy a different type of class.

Restorative Yoga

Yin and restorative yoga both incorporate longer held poses allowing you to slow down from the busy-ness of day to day life. The longer held poses increase mobility and flexibility, and the pace of the class can promote feelings of calm, and help reduce stress and anxiety, as you find stillness and let go. In each pose there is nowhere to be and you need to be doing or thinking - we can practice the art taking our time and just being. In restorative classes we use bolsters, blankets and props to offer more support to your body in these poses.

Hatha Yoga

‘Hatha Yoga’ is often used to describe the gentle, slow flowing style that we often associate with Yoga. In Sanskrit, Ha’ means ‘Sun’- representing heat, male energy, present in the right side of the body, and ‘Tha’ means ‘Moon’- representing cooling, female energy, present in the left side of the body, according to ancient Indian tradition. Brought together, the word ‘Hatha’ encapsulates the physical, energetic practice of Yoga. We usually start with ‘pranayama’ or breathwork, which settles us into our space by bringing our awareness to our breath and inner energy, followed by a lush combination of seated, standing and balancing postures- settling into each pose or ‘asana’ for 3-5 breaths. I always offer variations and options throughout my classes, and love using props (like blocks) to support our practice in various ways- there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to do yoga- if it works for you, its yoga! Overall Hatha Yoga subtly strengthens and beautifully balances us, in body and mind, so we step off the mat feeling more present, calm and at ease- the perfect way to start your day.

Buti Yoga

The only way to transform your body in a sustainable way is to fall in LOVE with your workout and wellness lifestyle. Buti Yoga isn't a workout; it's a chance to create, let go, connect and sweat with intention. Every time you step on your mat, break through the emotional or physical barriers to set yourself free. This calorie scorching workout fuses power yoga with cardio-intensive tribal dance and body sculpting movement. Created by Celebrity Trainer Bizzie Gold. Buti Yoga utilises the Spiral Structure Technique to sculpt and tone the deep abdominal muscles that stabilise and strengthen the body. Instead of linear movements, Buti favours movements that challenge the body along with planes of motion. - THE RESULT - long, lean muscle with sexy feminine curves.
