An hour of honest work

This is the class for people who like to sweat and then lie very still. Sophie sequences it like a training session: a proper warm-up, a hard middle, a taper and a genuine recovery, all in an hour.

Expect

  • Twenty minutes of building standing work.
  • A demanding middle section with limited rests.
  • Hip and hamstring work on the floor.

Built for people who train

A lot of the room runs, cycles or lifts, and the sequence is written with those bodies in mind. There is deliberate work for hip flexors, thoracic rotation, ankles and shoulders, which is where most endurance athletes get stuck.

The last fifteen minutes matter

Sophie will not shorten the close, however good the flow felt. Long supine shapes and a full savasana are the part that makes the rest of it useful, and skipping out early is the one thing she will actually mention.

What the hour delivers

Athletic sequencing

Strong, continuous flow that assumes you can move.

A long, honest rest

The final fifteen minutes are the point, not the cooldown.

Mobility that transfers

Work that shows up in whatever else you do.

Recovering properly

Bring a towel and more water than you think you need. It is a hard hour, but it is not a competitive one.

I lift four days a week and treated yoga as a warm-down for years. This class is not that. Sophie made me take the last fifteen minutes seriously and my recovery is unrecognisable.

Get In Touch

Do I need experience to start?

No. Every class is taught with options rather than expectations, and our Fundamentals and Gentle sessions assume no prior practice at all. Tell your teacher it's your first time and they will look after you.

What should I bring to my first class?

Comfortable clothes and a water bottle. Mats, blocks, straps and bolsters are all provided, and there are showers and lockers in the changing rooms.

Can I come without a membership?

Yes. Drop-in classes and pay-as-you-go class packs sit alongside our memberships, so you can practise as often or as rarely as suits you.

How early should I arrive?

Fifteen minutes before your first class, and around five for every class after that. It gives you time to check in, settle and set up your mat without rushing.

Can I pause or cancel my membership?

Pause or cancel anytime with 30 days notice. There are no joining fees and no lock-in contracts, and any unused class credits stay on your account.

Do you teach pregnant or injured students?

We do. Several of our teachers are qualified in pre and postnatal practice and in therapeutic yoga. Let us know before class so your teacher can adapt the session for you.
