Our Classes

We are a modern Yoga and movement studio where you can connect with the tradition of Yoga and the science of mindful movement.

  • In our Flow Yoga class, we blend movement, breath, and mindfulness. These are our general Vinyasa Style Yoga classes. Suitable for all levels of practitioner, we give modifications and encourage you to tune into what your body needs.

    Flow classes are on daily.

  • A slower paced class that gives you more space to inhabit your practice. Time to get present with your breath. Slow Flow will vary with the style of different teachers, sometimes more restorative, sometimes with more flow and challenge.

    Slow Flow classes are on daily except Wednesday.

  • Our Ashtanga Program includes three Mysore style classes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and a Led Sanskrit class monthly.

    Mysore classes are group classes where students progress individually with the direct guidance of the teacher.

    Led class is a guided group class that is led in Sanskrit and moves through the Ashtanga Primary Series.

    6am Mysore Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday

    7am Led last Saturday every month

  • Yin yoga is a practice of long passive holds. It targets our joints, ligaments and bones through the energetic super highways of the body - the Meridians of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the connective tissue of fascia. It offers us the opportunity to find quiet contemplation while immersed in a deep body experience.

    Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings.

  • The Iyengar Yoga method focuses on the precision and alignment of poses and is a systematic approach to yoga. With the consistent practice of Iyengar Yoga, unconscious habits and patterns are replaced with deliberate, conscious actions to overcome imbalances and restrictions. It is a practical, challenging and therapeutic method of yoga, which can be practiced by anyone regardless of age or fitness.

    8am Thursday, 10.30am Friday

  • We begin with gentle pranayama to steady the breath and settle the nervous system. We then move through a mindful slow flow to build quiet strength and awareness. Each class will close with seated meditation to integrate the practice.

    Unhurried and grounding, this class is for those wanting to explore yoga beyond the physical shapes and cultivate a deeper sense of calm and clarity for the weekend ahead.

    11.30am Saturday

  • Sunday Mellow is our semi-regular space on Sunday afternoons created for you to chill, replenish and reset before the week ahead.

    Sunday Mellow sessions will rotate between different contemplative and slower practices.

    Expect to experience Pranayama, Yin Yoga, Meditation, Yoga Nidra Meditation, Yoga talks.

    4pm Sundays

  • Bodhi means awaken in Sanskrit.

    The Bodhi Suspension Method is designed to awaken your deepest muscles through activating the righting reflex in your body.

    This is an exercise system designed for core activation and strength building. You can expect a whole body work out.

    This is not aerial yoga. Bodhi is very different and the focus is on using the ropes to awaken your system. No fancy tricks.

    10.45am Monday & Wednesday

  • Our new Foundations course is coming soon on Sundays.

About Us

What people say about us

  • I have attended Sandra's yoga classes since 2015 and I have always felt glad I went even when I didn't feel like going. She has always had a calm, soothing voice and a passion for helping others: the perfect combination for a yoga instructor. I would recommend Sandra's classes for anyone who wants to try yoga for the first time or is an experienced yogi or someone carrying an injury. Sandra will be able to modify the the poses to suit the individual.

    ⏤ Karen

  • I've been going to Sandra's yoga classes for 8 years and that speaks volumes. A lovely, knowledgeable, dedicated and genuine person.

    ⏤ Lin

  • “My regular yoga classes with Sandra are highlights of my week, and have helped me in many ways. I love Sandra's passion for yoga and her generosity in deeply wanting to provide us with the best experience possible. She shares her knowledge and wisdom balanced with a sense of humour and fun. Each class leaves me feeling joyous and rejuvenated, thank you Sandra!”

    — Toni

  • “Sandra is a great teacher. Doing these classes feeds my soul and brings joy to my week.”

    — Art of Flow student

  • I started practicing yoga about 15 years ago when I was attending grad school in Pittsburgh. I was craving something that balanced out all of the running I was doing. I started with a hot power flow and moved onto Hatha and Ashtanga. I found Sandra when I moved to Sydney with my husband and have been with her ever since. I can truly say that she is one of the best teachers I have ever had. She sincerely integrates best practice in anatomy and physiology with yoga. She is for whole-of-life flourishing, not just achieving the best looking pose. My mind and body are very thankful for her.

    ⏤ Kelly

  • “I like that classes are as hard or as relaxing as we want it to be.”

    The following classes are suited for post-partum:
