Hatha
In this traditional yoga class, you will be guided through a set of physical postures and breathing techniques. Hatha is the union of both the sun 'Ha' and 'tha' the moon which is about balancing the mind and body. It is a class accessible to both beginners and experienced. Gentle in nature but can still be physically and mentally challenging. This class will leave your body feeling stretched and energised and your mind calm but focused.

Lessons from the mat

It is suitable for all, encouraging you to let go of competition, listen to your body and work from a place of truth.

Pilates
Joseph Pilates developed a range of postural exercises in the 1920 to build abdominal strength and body control. Over the years Pilates has developed into an array of classes from cardio Pilates, mat based, reformer classes and many more styles.
Here at Let's Retreat our classes will be focused on the 6 main principles: concentration, control, centring, flow, precision and breathing.

Somatic Flow Yoga
All heart-centred flow yoga classes are deeply meditative, nurturing and flowing practices designed to open your body, mind and heart, release physical and emotional tension, build core strength and resilience, cultivate balance and flexibility, and promote deep relaxation.
Hatha flow cultivates mindful self-awareness by uniting breath and conscious movement to leave you feeling grounded, inspired and deeply peaceful.
-
Yin Yoga with Sound
Yin yoga is a slow, mindful, floor-based practice, where postures are held passively for an extended period, using props to support the body to release.
It’s an opportunity for conscious rest, soothing the nervous system and creating space in the body and mind for deep presence and awareness.
Yin Yoga targets the deeper connective tissue tissues of the body as well as stimulating meridian lines to facilitate the flow of energy through your entire system.
This practice will finish with a healing crystal sound bath relaxation to leave you feeling balanced, peaceful and deeply restored.
-
Embodied Flow
A somatic (body) approach of inquiry, focusing on exploring through movement and poses which allow the body to be the guide rather than how we think a shape should look.
Connecting to the rhythm of the breath and creative ways to transition and move, it’s a way to honour the wisdom of your body and deepen the connection to your internal and external landscape - a home coming to yourself.
Each class will integrate a theme to explore and help reignite a sense of creativity.
-
Yoga to Unwind
With this slow hatha flow class, we begin by calming the nervous system with mindful breathwork, then move the body through some stronger postures before exploring slower restorative movement, settling both body and mind for a restful night’s sleep.
We also incorporate yoga nidra to aid sleep. All levels welcome.
-
Supple Strength
This body conditioning class is designed to help you feel stronger, build resilience and be more at ease in your body.
Supporting healthy muscles and connective tissue, improving posture, stability and everyday movement, we’ll use dumbbells alongside stretching and myofascial release to help you improve muscle tone, increase energy levels and reduce stiffness and tension. -
