Restorative Yoga

Restorative Yoga was developed by B.K.S. Iyengar in the mid-20th century and later popularised by his student Judith Hanson Lasater, who brought it to a wider audience in the 1990s.

It was designed as a deeply supportive practice, using props and long-held poses to allow the body to fully release without any effort or strain. Today it is widely recommended by doctors and therapists as one of the most healing and nourishing forms of movement available.

If life has been feeling a little heavy lately and your body is quietly asking you to slow down, Restorative Yoga might be exactly the medicine you need.

This is not a practice about pushing or achieving — it is about giving your body full and generous permission to rest, recover and simply be. It suits absolutely everyone, but especially those carrying stress, fatigue or tension they just can’t seem to shake.

• You will spend each pose fully supported, allowing muscles to soften and the nervous system to genuinely unwind
• It is one of the most effective practices for managing burnout, anxiety and the kind of exhaustion that a good night’s sleep doesn’t seem to fix
• Because there is no straining or forcing, it is perfectly safe and deeply beneficial for all ages, abilities and fitness levels
