Sequences of deliciously deep and long held floor poses inspired by Taoist Yoga. This meditative practice works on deeper connective tissues in the joints to enhance and stimulate the chi-flow to the meridian and organ systems and opens the joints.
Yin relaxes, restores and rejuvenates. It brings the moisture back into our dry and brittle areas, helping us to regain freedom in our body. Freedom in the body doesn’t depends on muscular strength, but on joint flexibility. Freedom in the body diminishes suffering. When we are not suffering we fall back in love with life, when we fall in love with life we then are able to give more back to life…
Yang is a combination of yoga and Tai Chi. A continual flowing sequences of poses that strengthens the muscles, maintains core stability, improves flexibility and agility – while enhancing our creative and active energy.
Yin yoga is an essential complement to the more active styles of yoga, sport and fitness and offers the opportunity to develop our thoughtful nature.

Yoga Orchid is a business run by Regina Kerschbaumer, an experienced senior Yoga Teacher (YAUK) and Bowen Therapist with vast experience in leading classes, workshops and retreats in the UK, Greece, Ireland, Morocco, South-Africa and Goa. She is based in Purley and Croydon were she teaches regular weekly classes.
Regina has a unique teaching style which unites student and teacher in an atmosphere of fun and well-being, allowing them to explore the relationships between the body, breath and stillness... Teaching Yin & Yang Yoga with warmth, enthusiasm and clarity, enabling her students to visualise and work with the Chakras and Meridians within the inner body to awaken a sense of inner calm and healing. Regina trained directly with Paul Grilley (the “founder” of Yin Yoga) in 2006 and has regularly updated her knowledge of this transformational style of yoga through annual training with Paul & Suzee Grilley and Sarah Powers.
Yoga is as mentally and spiritually beneficial as it is physically beneficial - creating change from within - balancing the body, mind and soul. It is so much more than just an exercise class - enhancing every aspect of your life by promoting general well-being.
I am very grateful to my wonderful teachers: Ruth and John White, Paul and Suzee Grilley, Sarah Powers and Shiva Rea.
I hope to inspire my students, as they have inspired me. Come and join me on a journey where we use yoga to 'stretch into stillness and health'.
