Slow Flow Yoga in Cononley
A calm, steady way to move, breathe and unwind. Wednesdays, 6–7pm · Cononley Village Institute · £9 a class
What Is Slow Flow Yoga?
Slow flow brings movement and breath together at a calm, considered pace. Rather than rushing from one pose to the next, there’s time to settle into each movement and find an option that feels right for you.
Expect gentle, flowing movement, moments of stillness and a good rest at the end. It’s a chance to step away from the day, move your body and leave feeling a little more settled.
Whether it’s your first class or you’ve been practising for years, you’ll be made welcome.
What to Expect
Each class includes:
- a gentle arrival and time to settle;
- simple, calming breathwork to help you relax;
- mindful movement linked with the breath;
- clear guidance, with different options offered as we go;
- an unhurried pace; and
- a restful finish.
I’ll offer options throughout so you can listen to your body and move in a way that works for you. There’s no pressure to keep up, and no need for a pose to look a certain way.
Is This Class for Me?
This class suits you if you’re new to yoga, returning after a break, or prefer a slower, more mindful way of moving.
You don’t need to be flexible, know the names of the poses or have any experience at all. I’ll guide you through each part of the class and offer options, so you can choose what feels comfortable.
If you have an injury or a health condition, or you’re pregnant, do send me a message before booking so we can talk about whether the class is right for you just now.

Your First Class
Coming to a new class can feel like a big step, and you’ll be warmly welcomed. Wear comfortable clothes you can move in and bring your yoga mat. Please arrive five minutes early to get settled before we begin.
Once you’ve booked, you’ll be sent a confirmation email. If it’s your first time coming to class, please complete the Health & Wellbeing Questionnaire ahead of time, so I can make the class safe and comfortable for you.
If you’d like to know anything before you come, send me a message. No question is too small. And if Wednesday evenings don’t suit, you can see all my weekly classes on the classes page.
A Little About Me
I’m Victoria. I’m a 200-hour qualified yoga teacher with a further 50 hours of yin yoga training, and I teach calm, accessible yoga in Skipton and across the Dales.
I create classes where you can move without judgement, slow down and take some time for yourself. Whether this is your first class or yoga is already part of your week, you’ll be encouraged to practise in a way that feels right for you.
Questions People Often Ask
Do I need any yoga experience?+
No. The class is beginner-friendly, and I’ll guide you through each part of it.
Do I need to be flexible?+
Not at all. Yoga isn’t about how far you can stretch or how a pose looks. You’ll be encouraged to work with your own body and take the options that feel right for you.
Do I need to bring a mat?+
Yes, please. The Institute is a village hall rather than a yoga studio, so I kindly ask you to bring your own mat. If you don’t have one, don’t worry. I have a few spares, but please let me know before the class so I can bring one for you.
What should I wear?+
Comfortable clothing you can move easily in. There’s no need for special yoga clothing.
