About Yoga @ Sunshine :Yoga @ Sunshine offers weekly vinyasa flow yoga classes.
Built on the foundation that yoga in the city should be accessible and sustainable for all, classes run at S.I.A’ s community C.A.F.E (Carnival Arts for Everyone); a charity supported by Arts Council England. This wonderful creative space enables us to keep yoga classes affordable; nurturing the gathering and growth of a community spirit in Loughborough Junction, whilst providing a welcoming environment to move our bodies, to find a stillness within, to breathe, release and reconnect.
Classes : Yoga at Sunshine classes are all open level vinyasa flow and suitable for beginners. Classes incorporate traditional teachings of yoga; pranayama (breathing techniques), asana (physical postures), and meditation. On a physical level, strength, suppleness and balance of body are created as physical tensions are eased. On a subtler level, space and stillness is created within, easing emotional stress and calming overactive minds.
Class Schedule :
Tuesdays, 7:15pm – 8:30pm
Thursdays, 7:15pm – 8:30pm
Sundays, 10:30am – 11:45am
Drop ins welcome, although pre booking is advised due to limited spaces.Suitable for beginners.
FIRST CLASS FREE, normally £8 per class.

We all had a great time! As a community group ourselves, the ethos of C.A.F.E matched ours. We wanted somewhere flexible and affordable and also easy to get to.
