Yoga
Improve your suppleness and flexibility, reduce stress and keep fit
We offer four types of Yoga classes at Malvern Active. Read more about each of them below to see what will be most beneficial to you.
Yoga
Classes with Miranda: Monday at 6:10pm | Tuesday at 9:45am | Thursday at 9:45am
The mindful approach of yoga helps to ensure that stretching is done safely, allowing the nervous system to release the muscles into gentle, effective stretches. This reduces the risk of injuring ligaments and tendons, which can occur through more aggressive approaches to flexibility training.
Yin Yoga
Classes with Gemma: Thursday at 6:15pm
This is a stretch class that encourages relaxation.
Using body weight exercises, Yin Yoga aims to lengthen and strengthen the connective tissues like our fascia, ligaments and tendons. It is also a great way to learn to sit for longer periods of time in our mind and thoughts, escaping the hamster wheel of life and taking the time to connect and restore yourself.
Vinyasa Yoga
Classes with Jo: Tuesday at 8:15pm
Designed to nourish your body and mind, Jo offers flowing vinyasa classes that connect movement and breath. Through a series of energising postures, Jo weaves a thread of yoga philosophy throughout her classes to help take the practice beyond the mat and into everyday life. Jo's classes provide a happy and welcoming space to find connection and slow down after a busy day.
Therapeutic Yoga
Classes with Love: Sunday at 10:45am
Join Love every Sunday for a therapeutic yoga class suitable for all ages, genders and abilities. Within this session we will aim to curate a healthy, tension-free body to support mental well-being and emotional clarity. This is beneficial for those looking to find a balance between strengthening and stretching their muscles, increase their overall range of motion, rehabilitate old repeating injuries, maintain youthfulness and create a state of being that is both energised and relaxed.
Location: Studio
I really like the Spin classes with Sarah and Tim - one's up and down fun, loud music/loud shouting and the other is more relaxed, and all about getting your breathing under control. I became a member of Malvern Active to help my mental health, but actually my body feels so much better. I've never been happier!
Always great to come back and use @MalvernActive facilities. Amazing to think it was ten years ago that I used to train in the old pool!
