This mindful, breath-centred practice invites you to meet yourself exactly where you are — with compassion, curiosity, and care. Moving at a slower pace than our more dynamic Yoga Flow classes, this class offers a spacious environment that is ideal for all levels, including beginners, with modifications and variations always provided.

Expect more time to settle into each posture, with an emphasis on awareness, breath, and embodied experience — rather than how a pose looks. At its heart, this class is about presence, self-connection, and creating space to move with intention and kindness.

• More About Emily.

  Emily is a Sheffield-based yoga teacher, with ten years of teaching experience. Trained originally in vinyasa & hatha yoga, Emily has studied yoga, breathwork and yoga philosophy in the UK, India and beyond. 

  With a strong belief that there is no one-size-fits-all approach in yoga, Emily teaches a variety of different styles. Whether a dynamic vinyasa class or a deep and meditative stillness practice, Emily’s classes are warm, engaging and welcoming. 

  Some words from Emily:

  “My classes are playful but grounded, encouraging students to have a strong awareness of their breath. I believe that yoga can change the world and my goal is to strengthen the body and quiet the mind, for happier, healthier humans. We spend too much time rushing around, with our brains chattering away. For me yoga is about slowing all of this down, being more present, finding joy in movement and living more fully. "

  Emily is the Yoga and Wholebeing Lead at Open House. When she’s not at Open House, Emily’s love of the outdoors takes her off into the hills, or you’ll find her pottering in the garden.

• More About Flow Yoga.

  Flow Yoga refers to the styles of yoga characterized by stringing postures (asanas) together so that you move from one to another, seamlessly, with a big focus on your breath - your life force. In flow yoga styles you will feel the benefits of lengthening, twisting, balancing, bending, strengthening, reconnecting and revitalising your body and mind. There are several styles incorporated into flow yoga including Vinyasa, Hatha, Ashtanga and Dru yoga, each one it’s own sacred practice and offering something different for the yogi’s body, mind and spirit.

  While yoga is an excellent way to keep your body healthy, mobile and strong (especially your core), it is so much more than a form of physical exercise.

  The word yoga comes from the Sanskrit root “Yuj’ which means to join or unite, and in the old Hindu yogic scriptures the practice of yoga is seen as both a discipline and an art form that connects the individual consciousness with the universal consciousness, meaning we feel more in harmony in our own body-mind-spirit, and that we as human beings remember how connected we are to each other and to the rest of nature.

  In a world where we see things in separate categories (body or mind, out-there or in-here, work or rest, them or us etc), that feeling of union is pretty amazing, even if it starts as just a feeling for a fleeting hour on the mat. Yoga is a wholeness practice, for every body and every mind, and that’s also why no one can be bad at it.
