Kai Yoga

OUR PHILOSOPHY

On a daily basis we plug into our emails, but how often do we plug into ourselves?

KAI YOGA is a boutique yoga studio that blends mindful movement with breath to help us reconnect to what matters.

A space where you can be all that it is to be you. All levels, ages, shapes and sizes are welcome at KAI YOGA... and celebrated! Community is important to us. Through community we support each other on the journey to living our full potential - as Nelson Mandela says "As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same."

We're dedicated to creating a conscious practise on and off the mat. Through mindful movement we can create conscious living.?

CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

VINYASA FLOW
Flow & Glow

Vinyasa Flow is a dynamic class where mindful movement and rhythmic breathing come together to create a flowing, glowing and energising yoga practise. The blend between strength and flexibility is perfectly balanced so that your body, mind & spirit find harmony.

Temperature set to a warm heat to give you a glow, promoting the warmth of your muscles and the detoxification process.

It is energising, powerful and peaceful all blended into the one class.

VINYASA SLOW
Refine & Align

Our Vinyasa Slow classes maintain an element of flow but the tempo is slowed down so that movement can be refined and aligned. It is a practise designed to build strength and stamina for both the body and the mind. Through progressive sequencing that builds on a key alignment focus, or gradually builds towards a peak pose, those who are new to yoga will be educated on alignment, whilst at the same time, more experienced practitioners will appreciate the refinement and detail at a slower pace.

A gentle heat will take the chill out of your bones, warm your muscles and stimulate the detoxification process.

A slow and steady pace will put a smile on your face :)

YIN YOGA
Be still & feel

Yin Yoga classes offer us a chance to balance the Yang nature of our lifestyles. This is a practise that is slower, grounding and meditative in it's nature. Postures are held for longer periods of time to connect to deeper, more subtle layers of the body. With the support of bolsters, blankets and blocks, deep inner tensions that live in the connective tissue can be released. This also taps us into the Meridian System of the body, drawing upon Traditional Chinese Medicine, Zen and Buddhist philosophies.

Yin Yoga is practised at room temperature. All levels can benefit from this style of Yoga as it serves to be a wonderful balance to any Yang practise.

VINYASA BASE
Foundations to flight

Vinyasa Base is a gentle introduction to Yoga that will set you off in the right direction! You are only ever a beginner at something once, so at KAI YOGA we honour those first steps into a practise that can be life long. Beginning from the base, you will be gently taken through the foundations of the practise - posture, breathing, meditation. Preparing you in a way that you feel confident to explore other classes.

Vinyasa Base classes are gently warmed to help warm up your body, cleanse and also prepare you for the heat of the open level classes.

You will feel the powerful effects of Yoga after your first class! A stronger, more flexible body and a resiliance in the mind.

MEDITATION
Quiet time to unbind the mind

Developed by the ancient yogis, the physical asanas of yoga is a practice to prepare your body and mind for meditation. The cultivation of meditation to accompany your yoga practice will provide you with an even greater sense of clarity, calm and connectedness to face and embrace the demands of modern life. More presence, gratitude and compassion are just some of the gifts you will receive from meditation.
