Steady, encouraging classes that help you build a practice you'll come back to.
FlowStrengthPrivate sessions
Small yoga classes in a sunny room on Green Door Lane
Eighteen mats, four teachers and a timetable that starts at seven. Come for one class, or settle into a weekly habit.
We keep classes small so your teacher knows your name, notices the shoulder you're protecting and can offer you a block before you need to ask.
Lotus opened in 2016 above the old print works. Most people come twice a week, a few come every morning, and plenty of them had never done yoga before their first class here.

Our classes
Three ways in, whatever your week looks like.
Classes
This list is unavailable right now.
Your first class
There's nothing to buy and nothing to learn beforehand. Here's what happens.
Book a beginner-friendly class
Anything marked “all levels” works. Slow Flow on a Tuesday evening is a good place to start.
Arrive ten minutes early
We'll show you where to leave your things, find you a mat and ask about any injuries.
Rest whenever you like
Your teacher will offer simpler options all the way through. Lying down for a bit is always allowed.

From people who come here
I'd tried three studios and felt lost in all of them. At Lotus, Sam noticed I was guarding my knee in the first ten minutes, and two years later I still go every Tuesday.
Restorative Evening is the only ninety minutes of my week when nobody needs anything from me.
The 7am class is small enough that I'd feel bad skipping it, which is exactly what I needed.
