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.

  • Energising Flow

    A dynamic, playful, flowing yoga & movement practice that will build heat, strength and integrity throughout the entire body.

    Expect to sweat a little, smile a lot and to feel energised and ready for the rest of the day.

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

  • Slow Flow

    A slow, conscious and nourishing yoga and movement practice incorporating longer holds, with deep awareness to ground and regulate the nervous system and help you unwind. Likely to have some longer held yin and restorative poses to fully enable a state of deep unravelling and rest.

  • Hatha Flow

    This class blends the focus and depth of Hatha with the flow of Vinyasa.

    It allows students to delve deeper into the postures while also exploring the space in-between them, making the entire experience an inquisitive exploration of what is for the student right here, right now.

    Expect grounding pranayama (breathing exercises), balancing sequences and strength-building flows, with lots of modifications to amplify or modify your practice. All levels are welcome.

  • Slow Flow to Yin

    A delicious, slow practice guided to soft candlelight and music, to help you slow down and turn the gaze within. Beginning with meditation and breath then easing into slow flowing movement to free up the physical body.

    Finishing with longer held and supported Yin and restorative poses to allow for down-regulation of the nervous system, leaving you feeling grounded and peaceful. All levels welcomed and catered for. Bring a good pair of socks and an extra layer or 2 to ensure deep comfort in the final resting savasana.

  • Strong Flow

  • Medicinal Movement

  • Soulful Flow

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