🌱 Foundations Yoga – Perfect for Beginners in Christchurch
New to yoga? Start here.
Our Foundations classes are ideal for beginners, seniors, or anyone looking to refresh their practice. You’ll learn the basics of breath, movement, and alignment in a supportive environment — no pretzel poses required.
Whether you’re brand new or just want to build confidence, this is the best way to get grounded and stay safe on your mat.
🌀 Evolve – For Building Strength & Confidence
When you’re ready to grow, step into Evolve. This class helps you move beyond the basics and explore new poses, transitions, and creative sequences. It’s a great next step after Foundations for building strength, flexibility, and personal empowerment.
🌊 Flow – For Energy, Movement & Mindfulness
In Flow, movement and breath sync together to create a dynamic and energising practice. This is where you’ll break a sweat, find your rhythm, and walk out of class feeling both grounded and uplifted.
It’s the perfect class for those who love variety and want a physical challenge with plenty of mental clarity baked in.
😌 Yoga for Stress Relief – Yin & Restorative Yoga
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out, these classes are for you.
- Yin Yoga involves long, deep holds that target the body’s connective tissues and help melt away tightness and stress.
- Restorative Yoga is the ultimate reset — with the support of props, you’ll rest deeply and intentionally. These classes are seriously good for your nervous system.

🧘♀️ How to Build a Balanced Yoga Routine
Not sure where to begin or how often to come? Try this:
✅ Start with Foundations

A balanced weekly routine might look like 2–3 active classes plus one slower, more restorative practice. This combination supports not just strength and flexibility, but mental clarity, emotional resilience, and better sleep.

We get it. Life’s busy. But here’s the truth:
