Yinyasa yoga classes

MONDAYS 7-8PM |VERVE WELLNESS

SUITABLE FOR: ALL LEVELS

A blend of Yin and Vinyasa Yoga to promote a well-rounded practice. Classes include still yin postures to target the deeper connective tissues of the body and the flowy movements of vinyasa while connecting to the breath. This class is accessible to all including beginners.

mystery mandala

tuesdays 6-7PM |The boat house

SUITABLE FOR: intermediate

A mandala flow is a type of vinyasa flow, however it is a more creative practice that takes you on a journey round the mat. To encourage ease and freedom in the movement, there are often repetitions, allowing you to settle in to a form of movement meditation.

Vinyasa yoga classes

Tuesdays 9:30am & 7:15pm | THE BOAT HOUSE

SUITABLE FOR: ALL LEVELS

Vinyasa is a breath-initiated practice.
We will move through our poses seamlessly working with our breath, finding stability within the body and peace within the mind. Class focus varies from deep stretching to balance but always incorporates breathwork.

Midday Alternation

Thursdays 12:15-1pm | VERVE WELLNESS

SUITABLE FOR: ALL LEVELS

Alternating weeks of either Midday Motivate or Midday Rejuvenate. Motivate is an uplifting vinyasa flow, designed for those seeking motivation through joyful and playful movement whereas Rejuvenate is all about slow mindful movement, meditation and breathwork.

Empower Hour

THURSDAYS 7-8PM | VERVE WELLNESS

SUITABLE FOR: INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED

A challenging but fun class to leave you feeling empowered. We occasionally work towards arm balances and inversions to channel your inner strength. Modifications are provided to suit any fitness level.

Slow Flow Sundays

SUNDAYS 9:30-10:30AM | THE BOAT HOUSE

SUITABLE FOR: ALL LEVELS

A gentle vinyasa-style class overlooking the calming waters of the lake, and if the sun allows, perhaps the opportunity to take our practice outdoors. Enjoy a moment of bliss before the week starts again.

kind words

Amazing first yoga session, so chilled, warm and welcoming. Can't wait to come along again soon!

I would like to express my thanks and gratitude to Lauren for the excellent classes that she teaches. Her teaching technique is very calm and person centred. She never pushes you beyond what is comfortable. I have learned a lot about my breathing which has been very helpful in controlling my asthma. The gentle stretching and movement has also proved brilliant in keeping myself mobile. A big thank you Lauren! 🤗

Love Lauren's yoga classes. Challenging enough to help you build strength and surprise yourself, but lots of modifications always available. I particularly love Embodied Flow classes - the fusion of yoga and dance speaks to my soul!

A really love the fact that there is a lunchtime class that helps me to relax and refresh during my working day in a lovely surrounding with a welcoming and knowledgeable teacher.

Fantastic teacher and lovely friendly classes, with no pressure to be perfect!

There’s so much going on in the world, and our teens unfortunately aren’t immune to this. Lauren Aimée strives to provide a safe space for teens to learn more about themselves, appreciate who they are and grow as individuals, as well as building bonds with like minded teens in the room.

We’ve explored crystal meditations, and essential oil protocols and even made our own bath salts! Sign up to my newsletter to be notified of the next course date.

1-1 yoga classes in Bedford

Whether you’ve been practicing yoga for a long time or you’re completely new to the mat, one-to-ones can be a great way to find your own pace and learn how to tailor the practice to suit you.

We all begin yoga for various reasons, whether it’s to build strength, learn more about the philosophy behind the poses, deepen our connection to our breath, find spaciousness within the body or create peace within the mind.

There’s so many glorious benefits to one-to-one yoga, where each practice is completely tailored to what you’d like to explore and designed at a pace you are comfortable with.

Sessions are held at Verve Wellness Studio.
