Service Description

Slow flow sessions combine a mixture of mindful movement, breath and relaxation. Including moments of both stillness and fluidity, the breath links movements together to help create more space in body and mind. Sessions are open to all levels of experience with modifications offered to all practitioners. Monday evening sessions will be led by Katherine, Wednesday evening sessions by Marie and Saturday morning sessions with Dani. Benefits of yoga: + Improves Flexibility - gentle, sustained movements allow muscles and connective tissue to gradually open and lengthen. + Builds strength mindfully - slower pacing helps you engage muscles with control and proper alignment, reducing risk of injury. + Enhances body awareness – moving with intention fosters a deeper understanding of your body’s needs and capabilities. + Supports stress relief – the meditative pace calms the nervous system and lowers cortisol levels. + Increases balance & stability – holding poses for longer builds stability, coordination, and joint support. + Improves posture – focus on alignment helps correct imbalances from sitting and modern lifestyle habits. +Boosts Mind-Body Connection - slower transitions encourage presence, mindfulness, and intentional breathing. FAQ ~ Do I need to be experienced? No, this class is open to all levels of experience. If you are a complete beginner and find that it is too fast paced you may want to try the gentle yoga class or the Yin classes (which are a different style of yoga which are slower and potentially more accessible). ~ How mobile do I need to be? Being able to get up and down from the floor easily will be beneficial for this class. If this is a challenge the chair yoga classes may be a better fit. ~ Do I need to sit on the floor? Sitting on the floor will usually form at least part of the classes - props (blocks and bolsters) will be provided and different options to try and make this as accessible as possible. What style of yoga is this? A Hatha/ slow Vinyasa style. Is your question not here? Email Marie: marchesmovement@gmail.com
