Laura McDonald
Laura McDonald instructs the following:
- Yin Yoga w/ Meditation (75 minutes) Studio 1
- Hot Bikram Yoga (90 minutes) Studio 1
In Yin Yoga you will experience a slow, steady and soothing class where you will hold individual poses for longer to work deep into the 'yin' tissues. When you gently stretch connective tissue by holding a Yin pose for an extended period you make your muscles and tissues a little longer, stronger and more resilient (which is also a great complement to your Bikram practice!).
At the end of the class you will be guided through a relaxing meditation using visualisation techniques and breath work to encourage maximum restoration and relaxation.
The class is practised at a moderate temperature and is candlelit when it’s dark outside to create a serene atmosphere, but during daylight hours, we embrace natural light.
Classic 90 (90 minute class)
The original hot yoga. You will be guided through your dialogue-led practice doing two sets each of the 26 postures and two breathing exercises. Pure Bikram.
The heat boosts circulation, mobility, and detoxification, while mindful breath control fosters mental resilience.
