Yoga Dharma Centre offer vigorously physical and intellectually stimulating yoga classes. Classes consist of Vinyasa (flowing asana sequences), hands-on adjustments, Pranayama (breathing exercises), meditation, Sanskrit chanting, Yogic philosophical teachings and deep relaxation. To keep the practice inspiring, asana sequences are varied and evolving using Astanga vinyasa as the foundation. Atmosphere and the use of inspiring music, plays an integral role in the class.

We offer varied classes from beginner to advanced. Classes are 75-120 minutes. Astanga vinyasa Yoga is one of the nine internationally recognized styles of Hatha Yoga.

The centre also hosts a wide range of therapies and workshops by acclaimed teachers.

In the West, the most widely taught form of yoga is Hatha Yoga with classes offering students exercises to stretch and flex the body, develop breath awareness, relaxation and sometimes meditation.

Some classes may be low impact while others can be very demanding.

In a typical class, 10-20 minutes is usually given to relaxation, at the beginning and/or the end. Most students lie in 'savasana' (lying on your back).
