“I thoroughly enjoy and look forward to each session. Like many people I have a busy life crammed with work and family commitments. Over the past 3 years SunYoga classes provide me with an opportunity to stop and ‘just be’. Yoga helps me to feel fitter and stronger, but more importantly it helps me to be calmer and more accepting of myself and others.” - Lynda, 2008

SunYoga Groove - exercise for the soul!

"Love it. Love the cardio exercises, feels liberating. Brings back childhood memories of freedom & fun in exercise." Jayne, 2010

 
It’s playful & fun and we have to admit, sometimes a little bit ridiculous. If you want to get your heart beating, and are willing to shake your booty to disco music, then this is the class for you!

You get all the benefits of yoga with some extra emphasis on toning and strengthening. We begin with a gentle warm up, move into a broad range of yoga postures and then roll up the mats and spend 15 minutes or so grooving to our favourite tunes. It’s invigorating, de-toxing and cleansing for your body, mind and soul, and each class ends with some slow stretching and a guided relaxation…

Classes open to all, some prior yoga experience is advisable and a sense of humour is mandatory!

Women's SunYoga Groove - is as the name suggests, for women only. Exercise in a safe, inclusive and non-competitive environment. SunYoga is an upstairs studio, completely private and guaranteed male-free for the duration of this women's class.
