Our aim is to offer sessions from the
best teachers, teaching a broad range
of truly authentic styles of yoga in a
great environment; so you could find
a class suited to you and so that yoga
could and would be for everyone –
regardless of age, size, gender, fitness,
diet and lifestyle.
Our main principle is to honour the tradition of yoga
and to create a sense of entering a sacred space.
We wanted to dispel the illusion about who can practice
yoga because it is truly for everyone – hence, everyone is welcome at Spirit Space.
Flow yoga is based on rhythm. The word flow means "movement aligned with breath, which rhythmically builds on itself". Yoga in this style means that you will smoothly perform one asana after another in the rhythm of breath in and breath out. ... This is a dynamic and physically demanding form of exercise, often called Dynamic Yoga.
Yin yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga with postures, or asanas, that are held for longer periods of time—for beginners, it may range from 45 seconds to two minutes; more advanced practitioners may stay in one asana for five minutes or more.
Vinyasa, also called flow because of the smooth way that the poses run together, is one of the most popular contemporary styles of yoga. It's a broad classification that encompasses many different types of yoga, including Ashtanga and power yoga.
In contemporary yoga parlance, vinyasa stands in opposition to hatha. Hatha classes tend to focus on one pose at a time with rest in between. In contrast, flow classes string poses together to make a sequence. The sequence may be fixed, as in Ashtanga in which the poses are always done in the same order, but most of the time vinyasa teachers have the discretion to arrange the progression of poses in their own ways.
Hatha yoga is known as the yoga for the physical body. In Sanskrit, “Ha” represents sun and “tha” represents moon,
This alludes to the opposites in our lives, such as yin and yang, light and darkness, hard and soft, vigorous and gentle.
Hatha yoga is about finding balance. Through working with the physical body, releasing tensions and traumas stored in the body, you create space in yourself and, through that space and balance, the opportunity for spiritual growth.
