Slow Flow Yoga in Skipton

Gentle, mindful movement at an unhurried pace.

Give Yourself Permission to Slow Down

In the middle of a busy week, this class offers a chance to pause, breathe deeply, and come back to yourself. Blending gentle mindful movement with calming breathwork, you’ll ease tension from the body, quiet the mind, and create space for stillness.

There’s no pushing or striving here, just slow, aware movement that gives your nervous system a chance to reset. You’ll leave feeling lighter, calmer and more balanced, ready to move through the rest of your week with greater ease.

Whether it’s your first class or you’ve been practising for years, you’ll be made welcome.

Is This Class for Me?

Slow flow suits you if you’d like to move gently, without being rushed. It builds a little strength and mobility over time, but the point is how you feel at the end of the hour rather than what you can do.

You don’t need to be flexible, fit or experienced. Everything is guided, options are offered as we go, and resting is always welcome.

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.

When and Where

For now, slow flow runs in Cononley, at Cononley Village Institute, a few miles from Skipton, and it will be back in Skipton soon. Please bring your own mat, wear something comfortable and you might like to bring a bottle of water.

Slow Flow FAQs

What is slow flow yoga?+

Slow flow links gentle postures together with the breath, but at a much slower pace than a typical vinyasa class. There’s time to settle into each position, and no rush to keep up with anyone.

How is slow flow different from yin yoga?+

Slow flow keeps you gently moving, so it’s a good choice if you’d like to ease stiffness and feel a little more mobile. Yin is almost entirely still, with poses held for several minutes at a time. Many people come to both, so you’re welcome to try each and see what suits you.

Is it suitable for beginners?+

Yes. Classes are open to all levels and everything is guided, with alternatives offered as we go. Plenty of people come along having never done yoga before.

Do I need to be fit or flexible?+

Neither. The class is designed to meet you where you are, and resting whenever you need is always welcome.

What should I bring?+

For now the class is in Cononley, so please bring your own mat. Wear something comfortable to move in, and you might like a bottle of water and a warm layer for the final relaxation.

When is the slow flow class in Skipton?+

Slow flow is running at Cononley Village Institute, Main Street, Cononley for now, and it will be back at Holistic House in Skipton soon. Current days and times are shown on the booking page, where you can also book your place.
