The Vitality Clinic
Welcome to The Vitality Clinic
Give us your body. Gain a tranquil mind.
Yoga is a valuable means of self-healing that provides physical and mental therapy through the practice of yoga postures, breathing techniques, relaxation and meditation. The physical and emotional benefits of yoga are endless. Science has proven that yoga slows the ageing process through balancing the endocrine and nervous system which directly affect all other systems of the body. Yoga improves energy flow throughout the body, enhancing health on every level. Yoga is ever growing within Western culture as more and more students report improved health, fitness and flexibility, decreased stress levels, raised energy levels and an overall sense of well-being and calm.
Why Vitality Yoga?
The Vitality Clinic prides itself on providing a style of yoga that is relevant to modern living, addressing the demands of lifestyles today. Yoga is thousands of years old, developed when man lived in harmony with the earth; he worked and lived off the land, ate simple, unprocessed foods, slept on the earth and squatted instead of using chairs. Not only have our lifestyles changed dramatically, but so have our bodies. Yoga in its classical form can be extremely challenging for the average Westerner’s busy mind, body and unconditioned spine. Vitality Yoga is founded on classical yoga, but adds a little more, incorporating other healing modalities such as Kinesiology and Chinese medicine to enhance yoga’s benefits and opening yoga to a wider group of people. Vitality Yoga empowers students through communicating the therapeutic outcomes of each technique or posture. Vitality Yoga was developed to address the needs of modern lifestyles and its unique approach has been highly popular among both experienced and first time yoga students. Our class sizes are small so that students can challenge and extend according to their own body under careful instruction from our teachers. Students acquire tools to deal with the challenges and demands of modern life. Everyone will benefit from Vitality Yoga regardless of age, gender, fitness or flexibility.

Introductory yoga provides a foundation for yoga practice. Over two classes, students will learn the basic premise of yoga, obtaining tools to move safely through a yoga practice with awareness and depth. Introductory classes are suitable for beginners and are also recommended for those who have practiced yoga previously but are new to Vitality Yoga.
General yoga classes are the most popular and are the next step, following on from our introductory classes. General classes begin with preparatory postures to warm the body and settle the mind, they then move into Salute to the Sun Sequences followed by various yoga postures and concluding with meditation or relaxation.
Prenatal yoga classes are dedicated to expectant mums and the babies developing within them.Through yoga postures, breathing techniques, relaxation, visualizations and sound therapy, pregnant women leave prenatal yoga feeling relieved and relaxed.
Advanced yoga is a challenging class with a stronger emphasis on the physical aspects of yoga. This class is suitable for intermediate and advanced students who have a sound grasp on the importance of using the breath to stay safe within yoga practice.
Gentle yoga classes are suitable for beginners or for those who have chronic back or neck injury and any other physical aliments that may require a gentler practice. Gentle yoga allows students to work at their own pace and comfort and provides modifications and alternatives to classical practices.
Mums ‘n’ Bubs yoga is for mothers and their children – babies through to 3yr olds. The classes are light and informal. Children and babies can participate in the class or simply play with other children. New mothers are encouraged to involve their babies throughout the class but they may find their baby will wish to sleep beside them. This class helps mothers discover that peace and calm can be experienced, even when their child is with them.
