Whilst the structure of my classes is largely āsana based, the heart of them will always be philosophical.
Or, to put it another way, āsana may be the bread of the sandwich, but philosophy will always be the filling.
This year Sammy has been working her way through the teachings of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali as the foundation of what she shares in class.
There are many definitions of yoga, but Patanjali offers one of her favourites - yoga as the nirodha of the citta vrittis — the stilling, settling or restructuring of the fluctuations of the mind.
Recently we’re exploring Sutra 1.12:
Abhyāsa vairāgyābhyāṁ tan nirodhaḥ
A simple but profound teaching on how we begin to settle the mind: through the two pronged approach of abhyāsa (steady, committed practice) and vairāgya (non attachment).
Fancy joining Sammy on the mat to get a taste of it yourself?

We often get this question: am I good enough to take this course?
And the simple answer is: If the practice called you in beyond the regular class attendance, if you feel drawn to know more, if you feel that you want to share it with others and help them see the incredible potential this practice offers - you are ready❣️
Don’t look for external signs, look within.
The studio has been a little oasis these past few days with the heat. 🔥

Our brand had a little refresh. ✨
After 8 years of the familiar Yoga House style, and with the recent additions, we thought it’s time to tidy up and polish our brand identity. So it works across all offerings, showing off what we believe in and are about.
Still with the same familiar leafy and earthy feel, but with some additional colours and variations of our logo, that will sit across our social identity, but also new merch and studio communications.
We chatted with Alice 15 South ✺ Branding & websites about our brand values, our mission and brand positioning.
For 8 years we walked the talk, so now it’s time to talk about it too.
Our studios are here to serve community, through warm, high quality and inclusive environment. Through expert teaching, a wide range of classes and a space designed to feel calm, from the moment you step in.
There is no level you need to reach to be welcome here. We believe the practice should meet you where you are.
We believe everyone deserves access to exceptional teaching, high quality equipment that respects the practice, and beautiful spaces.
8 years on, the commitment is the same. The teaching is honest, the quality is real. We do not cut corners, or pretend to be something we are not.
Every decision from the incense at the door, to the free tea after class, is made with the same intention: to make people feel genuinely welcomed.
Our new look will communicate it even better.
✨🦋✨
Thank you 15 South ✺ Branding & websites for giving us this new fresh look 🫶
