About Us
Essence Yoga Bristol
Essence Yoga is a small, friendly studio based at Bristol’s Paintworks. Set up to provide accessible and inclusive classes for all abilities and experience.
Classes focus on combining movement and postures (asanas) with breath and a chance for self exploration and inquiry.
Yoga is a wisdom teaching and this is central to our studio approach, we honour yoga’s roots as an ancient practice of the mind, body and soul and endeavour to create an open, inclusive and friendly space.
We offer classes for those wishing to dip a toe in the pool of yoga, without having extensive experience and welcome beginners and those with a curiosity to practice. We also offer classes where those who have experience in any style can come and deepen their own practice.
We will include where relevant elements of yoga philosophy and seek never to alienate but to create a welcoming environment where there is something for anyone, or any age, background and ability.
Yoga for every body.
“The ultimate essence of yoga is the contact and the union between the individual consciousness and the divine consciousness.”
Raphael (Ashram Vidya Order)
