  • We offer children’s yoga classes through the holidays, for our normal studio classes we ask that everyone is over the age of 16.

  • We recommend to arrive 5-10 minutes before the start of class so you can settle in peaceful and get comfortable, if you’re rushing it’s not the most relaxing start to class!

Testimonials from Beginners

  • Even though I wanted to try yoga for a long time, as a beginner I felt a bit nervous and unsure what to expect from a class. I needn't have worried. A warm welcome in the stunning location of the haven, a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and excellent teaching made my beginners course a joyful and rewarding experience. I feel very lucky to have found Jasmine Yoga and would recommend anyone try a class, you won't be disappointed!

  • My wife bought me a block of beginner classes as a gift, I haven't looked back since. Jo and the team run fantastic classes for all levels in a relaxed and professional manner, at the most stunning location, the Haven. The classes have been brilliant and I can now do my shoes laces up! What's not to love?!

    Mark

  • I love everything about Jasmine Yoga. Jo and the team have created such a warm, welcoming and nourishing environment to learn, share and practice yoga together. Everbody is very friendly and encouraging and I feel comfortable attending classes on my own. The classes are varied, interesting and fun and there really is something for everyone regardless of your yoga experience, whether you are looking for a gentle relaxing class or more energetic class. Jo always offers lots of modifications to postures making the classes very accessible for everyone. Jo encourages you to do what feels comfortable/right for you and to listen to your own body. I leave classes feeling strong, grounded and peaceful. I am so happy that I found Jasmine Yoga.

  • A wonderful place. I can't imagine a better location to practice yoga. A beautiful, tranquil environment that sets the scene for fulfilling yoga. Beyond that, and even more importantly, the teaching itself is fantastic. A wide range of classes for all levels, always taught in an encouraging and positive way.
