Yoga with Lisa Toth

I have been practicing yoga for 12 years and I’m a trained Sivananda Yoga Teacher and a Member of Yoga Alliance. The spiritual name that was given to me is Janaki (Mother Earth). I’m also a qualified Reiki Practitioner and Coach.


I came to Yoga because of stress that manifested itself in migraine attacks, vertigo and insomnia. Yoga helped me overcome this by restoring my body’s natural energy flow, focusing and calming my mind and releasing tension in my body. I discovered Yoga touched on all aspects of the person: the physical, energetic, emotional, spiritual and cognitive realm. I felt amazing and Yoga became my way of life.


My passion is to pass on all the wonderful things I have learnt over the years, to actively support my students in restoring balance to their lives, to experience greater awareness and mindfulness. In class I give students the opportunity to explore and experience the mind- body-spirit connection in a guided and safe way.


My focus is on wellbeing, relaxation, restoring vital life force (Prana) and working with the body’s limitations. I have studied Iyengar, Astanga and Sivananda Yoga but I do not follow one particular style of Yoga in my classes as I found this too prescriptive in my own practice; instead I choose to draw on the inspiring teachers I have had and I combine a gentle asana flow (physical practice), with pranayama (breathing) exercises, meditation and chanting in my teaching. With beginners I focus on posture, alignment and breath awareness as I see this as the foundation to an enjoyable and safe practice.
With intermediate students I focus on asanas to develop strength and flexibility in the body and the active use of breath control as a way to control the mind and find inner stillness.

Join me on the wonderful journey of discovery of the Self through Yoga.

Yoga with Rachel Johnston

My classes combine an appreciation for alignment with a real love of movement, while including more restorative practices as appropriate. Classes incorporate the philosophy of yoga – learning to be present, not on 'automatic pilot', so that we can practice being as fully alive as possible in each moment in every day life - not just on the mat.

I like to keep my mind open to the possibility that I can always learn as much from my students as they can learn from me and I believe in each person finding their own level. I aim for my classes to be fun, challenge the body, engage the mind and quicken the spirit, whatever the level!


Yoga has been a constant part of my life since the age of 17 and I started teaching in 2009, once I had completed the Karuna Yoga Teacher Training Diploma (RYS 500hours) with Ruth White. My teaching is grounded in the alignment of the Iyengar system, as taught by Ruth, but also greatly influenced by the teachings of Vanda Scaravelli, Vinyasa flow and meditation.

Starting on the 5th January 2012 I will offer a class of Restorative Yoga + Pranayama:
Suitable for students of any age and experience, who wish to practise softly and relax deeply. Also ideal for beginners and for those recovering from illness or injury.
The class will consist of quiet, restorative yoga postures and Pranayama (breathing exercises) that help relax the body's muscles, tissues, organs and nervous system. Restorative yoga is practised with the assistance of props that support the body while in positions, encouraging a release of deep tension and replenishment of energy.

I teach classes in 5 week blocks on:

Tuesdays : 7pm - 8.15 pm; 8.30pm – 9.45pm

Wednesdays : 6.30 pm - 7.30 pm; 7.45 pm - 9 pm

Thursdays: 6.30 pm -7.30 pm (Restorative Yoga); 7.45 pm - 9 pm

Kundalini Yoga with Isabella Devjeet Kaur

I started my yoga path in 1999 with an antrophosophic style of Hatha Yoga followed by Sivanda style classes. For many years I practiced general Hatha Yoga. After moving to London I also tried Ashtanga for a while before finding a very inspiring Hatha teacher at my gym. He has been amazing and his classes are still a treat for me. He mentioned Kundalini Yoga every now and again and made me very curious as I was looking for a more holistic yoga style than the one you usually get at big gyms. I went to a class with my current KY teacher and I knew I found the style of yoga that I can never get tired of practicing. Kundalini Yoga has given me so much I quickly knew I want to share it with others so they too feel the fantastic benefits.

Kundalini Yoga helped me to recuperate mentally, physically and spiritually after a challenging time in all areas of my life. Yogi Bhajan called Kundalini Yoga also the Yoga of Awareness as it brings our awareness back to ourselves. It helps us to stay grounded, cope with stress and stay focused and calm during the challenges that come with our modern lifestyle.

A Kundalini Yoga class as taught by Yogi Bhajan usually consists of a tune in mantra, warm-ups, a yoga kriya (or set), relaxation, meditation, and a closing mantra. Often the meditation also contains movements, breath work and/or mantras that are chanted both aloud and silently.

My favourite quote of Yogi Bhajan who brought Kundalini Yoga to the West in the late 1960s says: "You have a right to be healthy, happy and holy. It is your birthright."

So come and join me on this jouney of awareness.

I teach a class on Fridays: 6.30-7.45pm starting on 13th January 2012

Vinyasa Flow Yoga with Clare Marie Moody


Clare Marie has started a new Saturday morning class at the centre on 21st January. 

There will be an aspect of dynamic yoga for the first part, followed by some more relaxing poses to bring balance into the class. 

"My main practice is Vinyasa Flow and I am passionate about this creative and dynamic style of yoga.  It is meditative, therapeutic and alignment focused; influenced by my background as a Clinical Psychologist and my regular Iyengar practice. Kramic sequences build up gradually throughout the class to create a challenging yet deeply relaxing experience.  I emphasis the synchronisation of breath with movement enabling you to connect more fully with your internal rhythm."

Time: 11.15 to 12.45 am
