The benefits of yoga
Looking for a good reason to try yoga?
Well, there are hundreds of benefits that come with practising this ancient art – regardless of your age or fitness level.
One of yoga’s greatest physical benefits is increased flexibility. You might not be able to touch your toes at the start of your first class, but over time you feel your body begin to loosen and those seemingly impossible poses will become second nature.
Other physical benefits of yoga include:
- Increased muscle strength and flexibility
- Better posture
- Stronger joints
- Greater bone health
- Improved circulation
As well as its many physical benefits, yoga is also great for the mind. Studies have shown that yoga increases serotonin and can help reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression.
Yoga can also help to:
- Improve focus, memory and reaction times
- Relax and re-energise
- Boost your self-esteem and confidence
- Cultivate your inner strength
- Increase self-awareness and encourage self-care
Vinyasa yoga
Vinyasa yoga is what you might call a ‘dynamic’ form of yoga, featuring a sequence of classic poses that are executed with energy and enthusiasm.
Vinyasa yoga can be challenging, but we encourage you to practice at your own pace and the long-term benefits are incredible.
Hatha yoga
Hatha yoga is all about a slower pace and the peace that comes from complete relaxation.
Suitable for all ages, this class also incorporates elements of Pilates and Tai Chi.
Pregnancy yoga
For all of the joys that come with having a baby, pregnancy can take a heavy toll on the body.
Practising specially tailored yoga can help with the physical strains of carrying a baby, while also promoting calmness and relaxation.
Baby yoga
There’s nothing more special than a baby’s bond with its mother. Baby yoga helps to take that emotional bond even further, through positive touch and movement.
Baby yoga can also establish strength and balance in your baby, while also helping you get back into shape.
