Customer reviews

“I’ve been attending Sossi’s yoga classes every weekend and they are the highlight of my week! The Vinyasa classes leave me feeling energized, while the Yin sessions help me enter a deep state of relaxation. It’s a great practice to ease my shoulder pain. Would highly recommend!” Mayya (Bath, 2023)

“Having been to four types of yoga classes given by literally dozens of teachers in two different countries over the course of a couple of decades, I can say that Sossi’s classes are the real deal. Her teaching is authentic, knowledgeable, clear, varied, and carefully planned. And she’s charming. Who could ask for anything more?” Judith (Bath, 2024)

“Sossi’s classes are a wonderful mix of breathing exercises, yoga asanas and relaxation. The classes are really varied, and she caters to every level of experience. Sossi has such a lovely spirit and energy, she’s an extremely experienced teacher and her classes are welcoming and fun. I’ve also been to her Mindfulness classes and would highly recommend them too! Thank you so much Sossi.” Sally (Bath, 2024)

Who should attend

These Stretch & Restore Yin Yoga classes are suitable for all levels including complete beginners.

Yin is a slower-paced, more meditative version of the popular physical discipline of yoga. Poses are held for two to five minutes to target the joints and connective tissues (ligaments and fascia). As a result, the poses are more passive holds, with little muscular engagement.

Yin poses are designed to work on a deeper level – offering significant relief physically, mentally and emotionally. We improve the flexibility of our joints, release tension, balance the two hemispheres of the brain, unwind and allow more prana / chi (the body’s vital energy) to flow through the meridian lines of the body. Yin has its roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

Learn more about yin yoga including its history, origins, key principles and benefits (external website).

At our weekly yin classes, options are given for different levels, whenever it is possible, so you can choose your own level of challenge, should you wish to do so! We start each class with a gentle warm up including mindfulness and yogic breathing and end with a super relaxing Savasana (relaxing on our backs). This surely makes Friday’s Stretch & Restore Yin Yoga one of the best ways to wrap up your week!

If you are unsure whether these classes are suitable for you or not, you can contact me and we can discuss via email or telephone (your preference).

“Yoga classes with Sossi are unlike any others in Bath, the physical and mental benefits I have received from her classes are undeniable. As a professionally trained dancer and qualified yoga teacher myself, I recognise Sossi’s care & skill in teaching to mixed abilities. My confidence and flexibility have improved rapidly in the last 4 months of taking class with Sossi after a hiatus from yoga practice. Thank you Sossi!” Josie
