Hot Yoga classes are in the Vinyasa-flow style of yoga.
Vinyasa means breath-synchronised movement, and the flow describes the way you will move fluidly from one yoga pose to another in rhythm with your breath.
The heat not only encourages you to detoxify through sweating but it also warms your muscles meaning you get into your yoga stretches more quickly and deeply – increasing the effectiveness of your session and lessening your chances of injury.
Thursday’s 6.30pm-7.30pm
Saturday’s – 11.00am-12pm

Right in my first yoga class I was fascinated by the challenge of not judging or evaluating any upcoming bodily or mental sensation, but solely experiencing the effects on all levels.
Shortly after that, I strongly felt the need to more and more engage into the world of Yoga and the concepts it holds for increasing life quality and emotional well-being. In 2011, I started my teacher training with the German and European Yoga Union (BDY/EYU, an associated organization with the Bristish Wheel of Yoga, BWY and Yoga Alliance) and received my certificate (500hr teacher training) in 2013 and completed my 4-year (800hr) training in November 2015. Additionally, I have accomplished an Ante- and Postnatal Exercise Training to guide pregnant women and new parents through their times of change with Yoga.
As my Yoga teacher training also embraced the beneficial aspects of core stability, I am also a Pilates instructor and started to joyfully teach both Yoga and Pilates in 2012 in different studios in Germany. During this time I also became a stress management trainer (certified by the Institute of Health Psychology, Marburg, Germany), learned about mindful-based meditation and (after Jon Kabat-Zinn) and completed my PhD in Psychology at Jena University, Germany.
Due to the variety of experiences I made, all my classes, so both groups and privates, always incorporate a holistic approach towards the clients’ health and wellbeing.
Perceiving an urgent desire to work with people, I appreciate the opportunity to bring a little joy and peace to the lives of others.
I teach at Shaping Futures in Durham (see link to website below), at Yogalilies in Newcastle (www.yogalilies.co.uk) as well as at the Alington Community Association in Durham (see my own website prathanayoga.com). I am available for both private and group sessions. Please do not hesitate to contact me.
