YOGA CLASSES
At Embody we believe yoga is for everyone. The majority of our yoga classes are open to all levels, though if you’ve never tried yoga before we suggest starting with one of our Gentle Yoga classes. We also offer one-on-one sessions at Embody, giving new students the opportunity for a more personalised introduction and more advanced students a chance for specialised tuition. Frequent weekend workshops and special events complement our studio activities ensuring there’s always something to look forward to.
Yoga is an ancient and powerful practice with many time-tested health benefits. Practitioners enjoy increased energy and flexibility, improved muscle tone and strength, and reduced levels of stress and tension. Mental and spiritual elements of self are enhanced as well, making yoga one of the most effective and rewarding paths to a healthy and balanced lifestyle. Still a little nervous or curious? See this blog post for newbies to yoga with useful tips and what to expect.
Yoga classes at Embody are held in our beautiful light-filled Vauxhall studio, conveniently located on the Victoria Line between Pimlico and Stockwell, and a short walk from Nine Elms, Kennington and Westminster.
CLASS STYLES
Chair Yoga
Chair yoga is a gentle form of yoga that is practiced while sitting on a chair or using a chair for support. It is designed to make yoga accessible to individuals who may have mobility issues or find it challenging to perform traditional yoga poses on the floor. The class typically involves a series of gentle stretches, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques that help improve flexibility, reduce stress, and promote overall well-being.
Gentle Yoga
This class is ideal for beginners as well as more advanced students wanting to review the fundamentals of yoga. Our friendly and knowledgeable teacher will guide you through gentle yoga sequences with an emphasis on correct alignment and proper breathing techniques. A great way to discover the many benefits of yoga practice.
Lunchtime Flow
Our lunchtime version of vinyasa flow, this energising class builds strength, endurance and flexibility, and is a great way to refresh and recharge in the middle of the day. Suitable for all levels except complete beginners.

Mother & Baby
The focus of this gentle yet effective post-natal yoga class is to re-tone your body after pregnancy and help reduce tension and strain to your wrists, arms, shoulders, chest and lower back. The class is designed to include your baby in a playful way to stimulate development and health, and includes gentle massage, interactive play and a sing-along. No yoga experience necessary.
Pregnancy Yoga
Pregnancy yoga sessions are a wonderful opportunity to reconnect both with yourself and your baby.

The class finishes with a relaxing restorative pose accompanied by crystal sound therapy to soothe and rejuvenate.
