Yoga Synergy - flow style
​
Yoga Synergy’s aim is to teach the ancient art of yoga in a safe, fun and enjoyable way, whatever the level of practitioner. The beauty of the Yoga Synergy style is that it allows students to practice a more challenging flowing style of yoga while remaining safe. The strong physiotherapy background of the practice caters for the Western body, more prone to neck, shoulder, lower back, knee weakness and injury.
This style offers:
-
a safe practice suitable for all body types across all levels of fitness
-
suitable for those who have little yoga experience and those trying to rehabilitate or manage injuries
-
challenging enough for those more familiar with a regular physical practice
Yoga Synergy is built around 5 sequences per year, which are tailored to nurture a person’s body and mind as it adapts to the changing seasons. Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether – these 5 dynamic sequences of yoga postures are taught in the Yoga Synergy method, designed by Simon Borg-Olivier and Bianca Machliss, who are both Internationally known, highly experienced yoga teachers and qualified physiotherapists.

Typically a class will involve a grounding and settling breath practice and a warm up, moving into a lovely flowing sequence to open every part of your body and quieten the mind. We'll then move into some wonderful floor postures, followed by a deeply nourishing release sequence, breath work, guided relaxation/meditation and chill time - Savasanaarrhhh.
