Join us at Open House on Saturday 14th February as we celebrate two wonderful years of Open House with a special day of classes, a kitchen takeover and an evening of dancing & music.
We’d truly love to see you there.
The Open House teachers are marking this milestone by throwing open the doors to Upstairs as a space to gather and sharing a day filled with 45-minute taster classes. All as a way of saying thank you for being part of the community!
Drop in anytime to say hello, there’ll be free teas and snacks Upstairs throughout the day, creative things to do around the table and yoga teachers floating about (as they do). Come by for a class or simply to share a cuppa and a natter.
Throughout the day FREE classes will be offered by a host of Open House teachers. The day is designed to give you a feel for the varied styles of yoga and embodiment that we offer and the unique approach of each teacher. A day to try something new, and to celebrate the teachers you know and love!
If you’ve never stepped through our doors before, this is the perfect opportunity to visit the studio, meet the teachers, and get a sense of what makes Open House such a special place. And if you’re already part of our community, we’d be delighted to celebrate this anniversary with you and say thank you for being part of our journey.
