The Gorey YOGA Studio
Yoga is a simple form of exercise, available to all and will make you feel relaxed, content, alert and energized. Classes take place every evening Monday through Thursday and on, Friday and Saturday mornings. All of our teachers are qualified, insured and most of all, truly believe in Yoga as a way of life. They will teach you Yoga in a way that is of most benefit to you, with a view to helping you achieve your personal goals in the practice of yoga.
We teach two simple styles of yoga; Hatha and Ashtanga according to a tradition that dates back thousands of years and through a lineage that includes spiritual teachers such as Swami Sivananda and Shri K. Pattabhi Jois. We endeavor to pass on these teachings in a pure form that precludes modification from other forms of physical exercise.

Ten Students Only Per Class
The Studio is small and really ideal for traditional yoga classes. We can fit ten people comfortably and will rarely go beyond this number so you are assured of your teachers attention.
Hatha Yoga
Hatha Yoga at the Studio comes mainly from the tradition of Swami Sivananda through present day Yoga master Yogi Hari. Classes begin with 4 or 5 gentle Sun Salutations to warm up and then progress through a series of standing, inverted and then seated and lying postures which aim to stretch the body and move the spine gently through its entire range of motion. It is typical to feel relaxed, refreshed and energised after a Hatha Yoga session. Each session ends with a short conscious relaxation and meditation session of 4 or 5 minutes.

Ashtanga Yoga
Ashtanga Yoga is a unique movement and breathing system dating back thousands of years and brought to the modern world by Yoga master Shri K. Pattabhi Jois and his family. At the Studio we teach mainly the first series which focuses on strengthening and purifying the body. Each session begins with 10 sun salutations and then progresses through standing postures, seated postures, and then to the finishing sequence which includes back bends and inverted poses. It is typical to feel warm, energised, toned and stretched after an Ashtanga yoga session.
