Power yoga provides a more dynamic style of practice compared to traditional versions of yoga. The faster pace and intensity creates a focus on balance, strength and flexibility and less on meditation and chanting. However harmonizing breath with movement provides a form of physical meditation that promotes blood circulation, relives the body of tension and helps to alleviate stress, whilst boosting the body’s immune system.
Physical developments include improved muscle tone, increased strength in the upper body, hamstrings, quadriceps and abdominals as well as improved flexibility and posture. Combined with the flow of breath and movement, Power Yoga allows you to reshape your body as well as your mind. Appealing to both men and women of all levels, this style of yoga is great for creating communities of fun loving yogis.
As the founder of Yoga Tribe UK, I have had the benefit of participating in various styles of yoga before deciding that power yoga was the one for me. As a working mum with very little enthusiasm for the gym, I needed a form of exercise that created space and calmness within my mind whilst giving my body a work out that enabled me to grow stronger, fitter and feeling fabulous! I was hooked after my first class.
I completed my Yoga Teacher Training with Dylan Ayaloo at Hot Power Yoga and experienced a phenomenal journey of self-discovery, combining my spirituality with the knowledge and ability to teach and serve others.
Our mission with Yoga Tribe UK is to serve and create value within the lives of others through the practise of yoga. After identifying the struggle of many teachers trying to find time to exercise following a long working day, Yoga Tribe UK launched an initiative amongst schools in South London. We provide teachers and other staff the opportunity to swap the class for a mat, allowing you to de-stress within a 60-minute class and still be home for teatime!
Other benefits include offering access to affordable yoga, promoting the wellbeing of staff, combating stress, increased fitness, and developing communities of teachers and staff (and in some schools parents) practicing yoga.
