With Sam-Lee Doyle.
Join Sam for a revitalising Yin yoga experience that targets the liver and urinary bladder meridian lines, promoting balance and harmony within the body. This class will guide you through a series of gentle, long-held poses that stimulate the flow of energy along these meridians, helping to release tension, improve circulation and support organ function.
Through deep stretches and mindful breathing, you’ll activate the liver meridian, which is associated with detoxification and emotional well-being. This practice encourages the release of stagnant energy, allowing for emotional release and rejuvenation.
Additionally, we’ll work on the urinary bladder meridian, which runs along the back of the body. By opening up this pathway, you can ease tension in the spine and alleviate stress. The poses in this class will focus on promoting flexibility and relaxation in the lower back and hips, contributing to improved energy flow and overall comfort.
Whether you’re looking to enhance your physical flexibility, reduce stress or promote emotional balance, this Yin yoga class centered around the liver and urinary bladder meridians offers a holistic approach to wellness. All levels are welcome to join in cultivating a sense of calm and renewal.

Yin & Yang for the Glutes – 30 mins
With Catherine Bernard
In this 30-minute practice, Cat will take you through a series of postures and exercises for the glutes. Some will be repeated a number of times, for strengthening and mobility, and others will be held for longer, for stretching. Having strong glutes is so important, as they help stabilise the body, improve posture and lessen lower back pain.
Yin for the Spine – 45 mins
With Catherine Bernard
In this 45-minute practice, Cat will take you through a selection of Yin postures that target the spine. In our daily lives, we might move the spine in two directions at most, and that’s why so many people feel stiff and get back pain. In this practice, the spine will move in all directions: forward, sideways, backward and twists.
The benefits will be physical, with improved mobility and range of motion, as well as energetic, as a lot of nerves, blood vessels and organs are connected to the spine.
