Sylvia Ferguson
Flow Yoga and Restorative yoga
Sylvia’s upbeat approach and her good humour will help you to let go and guide you towards feeling grounded, spacious and calm
Her classes are very supportive, nurturing, invitational and fun.
She uses yoga, pranayama, meditation and Yoga Nidra to calm the nervous system and ensures that there is a lovely relaxed and safe environment in her classes.
Sylvia teaches both Yoga flow, and also Restorative yoga. In her yoga flow classes one’s focus is maintained on the breath, and coordinating the breath with the flowing movements. Sylvia’s Restorative yoga is more relaxing and restorative.
Weaving Mindfulness and Compassion into all classes, Sylvia’s practices are designed to guide you towards feeling grounded, spacious and calm. Yoga and meditation classes are clear and easy to follow.
Sylvia’s classes are a lovely balance of quiet and calming practices, and also some strengthening and provide an opportunity to explore, try something new and emerge feeling empowered and refreshed.
She loves to bring a playful energy to her classes, and helps one to let go and to feel the nervous system relaxing as one begins to let go into the present moment… and to simply Be.
