Our embodied approach

Flow State was born out of a passion for an ‘embodied approach’ to yoga and movement, coming from a place that recognises that there is no one pose that could suit any one person, as we are all so beautifully unique.

We are here to wholeheartedly celebrate your uniqueness and offer a practice that is for Every Body.

Each and every class and teacher on the schedule will offer adaptations to enable you to move in a way that feels good, encouraging you to make choices based on your physiology and energy that day.

As the incredible Vanda Scaravelli once said ‘don’t kill the instinct of the body for the glorification of the pose’.

OUR CLASSES

  • Embodied Flow

    A yoga and movement flow focused on somatic (body) enquiry, connecting to the rhythm of the breath, with a focus on feeling and exploring movement and poses and allowing the body to be the guide, as opposed to thinking and forcing the body into a preconceived idea of a shape.

    Each class will incorporate mindful, connected, slow movements, with creative transitions and theming, welcoming you to really meet yourself where you are and to trust the wisdom of your body.

    Suitable for all levels with options given to enable a more restful or dynamic practice.
