Guided Self Practice (Mysore Style) Classes
All levels – Glide time start
In this style of class students can work at their own pace and rhythm with personalised assistance.
Ashtanga (Primary & Intermediate Series), & Vinyasa Krama (Moon & Lion Sequences) are supported in these classes, or individual therapeutic practices that have been created in 1:1 sessions with Martina.
Essentially a One to One session in a group setting, each individual works through their own practice, in their own time with the teacher giving individual help.
Classes are on a glide time start basis, with a 2 – 2 1/2 hour window in which to do your practice.
Being a boutique studio, these classes are small so students receive plenty of personalised attention.
It’s a great way to practice, in a yoga specific space with the motivating, focused atmosphere of others practicing with you, yet still maintaining a very individual, personal internal practice.

An eloquent quote about Self Practice Classes by Rexx Samuell of Ashtanga Rogue in Washington D.C.:
“The ultimate goal of a self-practice method is to empower the student to personalise the yoga practice and to cultivate a peaceful, harmonious, internal awareness of the heart and the mind, not dependent on a teacher, a technique or a school. The ultimate gift of self-practice is to open the gates to your own inner kingdom (or queendom) of abundance, beauty and self-acceptance.”
