Elemental Mandala Flow (Challenging)
Service Description
This circular flow works towards a firm intention and is based on the four elements that bring connection between you and each of the Elements in the Universe – Earth, Water, Fire and Air. Each of these elements have their corresponding Chakra energy centers and group of muscles. The Mayan calendar will set the intention for the class and then inspired by the spiral patterns of nature, you will explore circular movements around all four corners of your mat. Flowing in this 360 degree circle, slightly slower than a fiery vinyasa class, this class prioritises breath to movement connection and whilst it is full body, will work on a particular target area (element) in the body. Starting and ending with a short yin session to ‘prepare’ and ‘close’ the areas of the body, this is a fun, dynamic and powerful class that has creativity combined with repetition to build strength, flexibility and a connection to the elements of nature. Air will work on the Anahata / Heart Chakra with quads, shoulders and heart opening backbends to help us find space in our hearts, our social identify and self love. Fire will work on glutes and spinal twists to energetically activate the Manipura / Solar Plexus Chakra and our sense of self and power Water targets the groin and hips working with pour Svadhishthana / Sacral Chakra and our source of movement, emotions and creativity Earth with its grounding poses and focus on hamstrings and forward folds will activate our Muladhara / Root Chakra and our sense of security and stability.

Cancellation Policy
Please arrive around ten minutes before your class is due to start. Access will not be possible until 15 minutes before the class start time in order to allow the previous class time to vacate the studio. We do not allow late access to class as the outside door will be closed to entry just before the class starts to protect peoples belongings in the reception area. Refunds will not be given if you are late and unable to attend the class. Block Booking cancellations can be made via the app with up to 24 hours notice. To cancel a single booking please contact me at least 24 hours in advance. I'm afraid refunds cannot be guaranteed if 24 hours notice is not given. Please park considerately and be mindful of our neighbours when leaving the studio. Please be respectful to your fellow yogis and teachers and ensure your behaviour does not affect their enjoyment of the class in anyway. This is a strict no shoes studio so please leave your shoes in the storage boxes inside the front door. Small lockers are provided for your valuables. But you might like to leave your bags in your car. We recommend bringing into the studio only what you need for class in order to keep space between the mats nice and clear. Please bring your own mat if you have one, though we do have spares. All props will be provided but you might like to bring your own blanket for savasana. Special events / workshops cancellation: 100% refund if more than one weeks notice given, 50% refund in the event of 1 to 7 days notice given. No refunds issued in the event of cancellation within 24 hours of the event
