We are pleased to offer quality yoga classes at the Manchester Climbing Centre.

Increase flexibility, balance, strength, and peace of mind.
Some of the world's best climbers have a regular yoga practice as part of their training regimen.

Yoga is a holistic system, and classes are taught so that all parts of the body are integrated. However there will often be a focus on the needs of climbers.

Non-climbers are more than welcome and will gain just as much benefit.

Many of the injuries and strains particular to climbers can be alleviated with a regular yoga practice.

The very foundation of yoga is built upon the integration of mind and body, using physical postures, breathing and meditation to function from a place of mindfulness and presence.

Vinyasa and Yin Yoga
Rejuvenating class that is 2/3 open level vinyasa (flow) & 1/3 yin postures. There is also a strong focus on integrated movement, which is invaluable to climbers. Yin yoga allows deeper release in the joints and connective tissues and will make new types of movement available to you. All levels welcome.

Vinyasa Flow class
Moderately paced vinyasa class with a focus on flowing movement and alignment in standing poses, arm balances, backbends, twists, seated poses and inversions. A dynamic and invigorating class with modifications offered for beginners and those with certain conditions. All levels welcome.

Dynamic Flow
Often based on the traditional Ashtanga system, a dynamic class in a flowing style. The first hour of the class is one where you keep moving! Followed by 30 minutes of cooling down and restorative postures. All levels welcome, however previous yoga experience is recommended.

The teachers
All teachers are fully certified with internationally recognized organizations - the British Wheel of Yoga or the Yoga Alliance. Each teacher will be bringing their own style to the class.

Possible class in the future: "Yoga for Experienced  Climbers"
Please let us know if you are interested in attending such a class. This is not currently being offered becase it would not be for the masses - it would involve subtle and sophisticated bodywork which the more experienced climber would appreciate as a tool for furthering their climbing development. Mature climbers ofren have developed a certain physique over the years, one with certain needs, and this would be a class for a niche demographic. If you think this is something you would want to be involved in, please call us and we will then tailor a class to meet your needs and schedules.

If you have any injuries or certain conditions, please call us to find out the most
appropriate class for you.
