WHAT
ARE CLASSES LIKE?
Amanda’s classes usually begin with breath awareness and gentle
warming-up exercises. These are followed by Sun Salutations and dynamic
‘vinyasa flow’ sequences. Classes finish with relaxation
and meditative practices.
An important aspect to Amanda’s teaching style is to find
creative ways towards greater ease in movement and natural alignment.
These include exercises and inquiries deriving from her background
in dance and study of Body-Mind
Centering® principles.
VENUES
Tuesday classes are held in the new studio at the Academy which
has a beautiful wooden floor and soft lighting. It isn’t
necessary to be a member to join these classes as Amanda works
independently from the Academy. There are directions to the Academy
from their website which can be accessed from the links page.
Wednesday classes, which include Beginners, take place in a small
studio in the centre of Harrogate. Numbers are limited to seven people
which ensure that Beginners receive individual attention as they learn
basic principles of Yoga.
COURSES
Amanda runs her classes as courses, not drop in classes. This is
so that students can progress in a class with others at a similar
level and because Amanda wishes to know her students – their
personalities, abilities and any health problems, so that she can
teach in a safe and personal way.
