choosing a class
At triyoga there is a wide ranges of yoga styles…not to confuse or impress you, but to help you find the style that would suit you best. Classes vary from the most dynamic to deeply restorative and everything in between – so whatever your age and fitness, there are classes to suit you.
There is a full a-z list of styles below, but if you don’t want to read more and just want to start yoga, there are lots of classes on the schedule which are simply called ‘yoga’ at different levels (read more about class levels). Still unsure of which class to go for? We also have a yoga quiz to help you determine which style best suits you.

anusara yoga
Anusara is a dynamic, flowing style of yoga. You might hold some key postures a little longer so that the teacher can explain key points of alignment. The spiritual foundation of an Anusara yoga class is that you are inherently good just as you are.
ashtanga yoga
Pattabhi Jois popularised this energetic style of yoga where you move rhythmically through a set sequence of asanas that purify, strengthen and lengthen the body. See also Mysore Self Practice.
ashtanga yoga guided full primary
Taught traditionally as it is in Mysore, India – the spiritual home of Ashtanga yoga – the full primary series begins with the opening chant and then moves on to sun salutations, standing postures, seated postures and finally the closing sequence. Teachers count using Sanskrit and explain each posture (in English!). Experience practising Ashtanga is essential.
baby massage
Our baby massage classes are designed with new mums in mind. Learn the basics of baby massage routines, which you can then develop and practise at home. We have a cosy and heated room, which is always toasty warm and group sizes are kept small to ensure each everyone gets the most out of the classes. We don’t mind when you last slept or showered, just come along and let us look after you. You are welcome to feed, change and see to your baby’s needs throughout the class.
barre

dynamic pilates
Dynamic Pilates classes link exercises in a moving, flowing sequence. Pilates is for everyone – and works the entire body through a series of repetitive, mat-based exercises. Some teachers might incorporate small equipment, such as resistance bands, balls and some yoga props. When practised consistently, it will help improve your strength, coordination and mobility. Pilates can also help prevent injuries and improve recovery and performance for those doing sports or practising yoga. Open to all levels from complete beginners to more experienced students.

feldenkrais method
Expand your range of motion as you enhance your awareness, improve your function and express yourself more fully on a physical level. Lessons consist of precisely structured movements that gradually evolve into movements of greater range and complexity.
flow + restore yoga
This nourishing class fuses the dynamism of a smooth vinyasa class, with the stillness of a deeply restorative one. It begins with breath-led, alignment-based flow before transitioning into quieter work that balances the nervous system with restorative and yin postures. The result? A state of harmony and peace in both body and mind.

forrest yoga
Created by Ana Forrest, Forrest Yoga is flowing type of practice taught in a warm room. Key postures include ones that unravel tension in the neck, abdominal core work and strength-based postures.
hatha yoga
These classes focus on the fine details of yoga postures and breathing, working on both your body and the mind. Generally, our yoga classes start with meditation and pranayama (manipulation of the breath) and warm-up postures, followed by standing and seated asanas, and a relaxing savasana to finish. You’ll hold postures longer than in a flowing vinyasa class, so you can explore the technical aspects and the effects internally. Teachers of this class come from a variety of backgrounds and will have their own individual way of teaching.
inner axis yoga
Developed by breathing expert Max Strom, Inner Axis deals directly with stress, anxiety and sleeplessness. It produces a level of fitness that makes you feel better, sleep better, and therefore function at a higher level, in your relationships, life and work. Classes will include breath-based yoga movement and mindfulness and are accessible to all fitness levels.
intensive vinyasa yoga
This is a strong vinyasa practice that links unusual poses with synchronized breath in flowing sequences. Modifications and intensifications are offered to suit every student’s ability and sense of adventure. The class finishes with inversions. This is an advanced practice so please speak with the teacher before attending the class.
iyengar yoga
This is an exacting and rigorous style of yoga developed by BKS Iyengar where you work on precise alignment of all body parts in a posture. The method is progressive, safe and orderly. The individual condition of each student is always considered and adjusted for.
iyengar yoga with ropes
These classes will incorporate rope work, or Yoga Kurunta – a way of using wall ropes to learn and access yoga asana. Using the ropes passively and actively helps develop strength, mobility and relaxation. The techniques have been developed by B.K.S. Iyengar.
jivamukti yoga
Founded by Sharon Gannon and David Life in New York City in 1984, Jivamukti classes integrate the physical, psychological and spiritual aspects of yoga.

kirtan
Kirtan, or chanting, is a form of meditation that is joyful and fun. For some people who find it difficult to mediate sitting still, Kirtan makes it a lot easier as the mantras help to still the mind. Kirtan is a great way to relieve stress and pressure – mentally, emotionally and physically. Through chanting from the heart, we can better connect with ourselves and others.
kundalini yoga
Yogi Bhajan bought the technology of Kundalini to the West in 1969. It features pranayama (breath work), mudras (hand gestures), asana (posture) and always meditation. Experiencing a profound sense of personal transformation is not uncommon. Some students wear white to absorb energy and light but you can come wearing whatever you want.
meditation + mindfulness
Meditation is the process of turning your attention inward with one-pointed focus, bringing about a sense of peace and self-acceptance. There are many meditative practices and mindfulness is one where you anchor yourself into the present moment. The mediation and mindfulness teachers at triyoga will have a range of influences from Buddhist to non-secular, and they will each possess their own approach to teaching this class.
mummy + me baby yoga
Mummy and Me classes are very sociable and allow new mothers, and dads, to emerge from the potentially isolating and confusing stage of early parenthood. These yoga classes use movement, balancing, strengthening and restorative poses that allow your body and mind to recover from pregnancy and birth. You’ll get to meet other new parents and share your joys as well as your frustrations. Suitable for mums with babies from forty days to crawling.

mysore ashtanga self practice
In Mysore-style classes, students practise the postures they’ve learnt at their own speed in a group setting. This is the way ashtanga is taught in Mysore India, the home of ashtanga, hence the name “Mysore-style”. Unlike “led” classes, you’ll work at your own pace and rhythm, practising the set sequence of postures and linking breath with movement. If you are new to ashtanga, this is a great way to learn. You can arrive at any time during the session – just leave plenty of time to finish your practice before the end time. Open to all levels and suitable for complete beginners.
