Groups and Private Yoga Classes

Private Yoga Classes are a great opportunity to tailor classes to an individual’s specific needs and levels of ability. After an initial consultation, Atma chooses Kriyas to elevate the individual and also offers advice on developing a personal practice and lifestyle.

Workshops
Spring
Vitality - A Kundalini Yoga and Meditation Workshop
This workshop helps us to develop tools to recognize stress in ourselves and others and to transform it and balance it with conscious relaxation. Kundalini Yoga prepares each of us to act with undaunted spirit, exalted calibre and character, and the vitality to cross every crisis. In this workshop we will look closely at how we react to, cope with and master our own vitality.
Summer
Summer: Yoga for Relationships Workshop
Venus Kriyas are partner yoga exercises and meditations. Unlike acrobatic yoga, this type of yoga is designed with the Soul purpose to bring couples, partners, friends and even strangers closer together through a unique application of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation.
Autumn
Autumn: An Autumn Equinox Kundalini Mind and Meditation Workshop
During this workshop you will deepen your practice of meditation, by participating in collective and individual meditation sessions. You will explore the relationship to your own mind to realize your true nature and fulfil your potential. Learn to recognize the different functional parts of your mind, clear it of distractions and intrigues, and practice how to master your mind through meditations focused on your specific mental constitution.
Winter
Winter: Lifecycles and Lifestyles – A Kundalini Yoga and Meditation Workshop
During this workshop we will learn how we can better fulfil our potential if we can grow beyond the emotions and commotions of day-to-day life into a state of balance and clarity. A human being grows and matures through different stages of life defined by a dependable set of cycles. These cycles are built into the structure of the human body and human mind, and over centuries have been investigated by the yogic practitioners. Understanding these cycles and how they impact your life is a powerful aspect of Kundalini Yoga. This workshop will help you to discover these cycles and their impact on you, and to redefine, transform and redirect the influence of negative experiences in preceding cycles.

Inclusive Yoga
Atma is committed to providing inclusive yoga. In her work she aims to create a supportive space for people with neurodiversity, the LGBTQ community, people of every race and socioeconomic status, and those in differently abled bodies. The founding principles in Atma’s work have evolved alongside her experience leading and teaching yoga and meditation practices within her local community and abroad. She has come to realise that there is a way through every barrier that may seemingly prevent people from marginalized populations against practicing and embracing yoga and meditation. These barriers may include financial accessibility, able-ism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and geographical availability. In response, Atma draws upon her practical experience, the philosophy of Yoga and the teachings of Austrian philosopher, Martin Buber who was best known for a form of existentialism focused on a relation of reciprocity and mutuality. This enables Atma to authentically meet the participant and introduce them to their personal relationship with Yoga practice.
