The kinds of practice on offer
Yoga fills most of the timetable, and vinyasa is the style you will meet most often, followed by flow and power classes. Yin, Pilates and core and pelvic floor work offer a different pace. A smaller set of sound bath, gong and bowls and breathwork classes fills out the schedule for anyone who wants something quieter.
The class names are a good guide. Power and Strong classes push the pace, while Restore, Calm and Flexibility classes slow things down. Many classes come in both 45 and 60 minute versions, so you can match the length to the time you have.
How the week runs
Classes begin as early as 6am, and about half of the schedule falls in the morning. Evenings are also active, with starts around 5:30pm and 6:45pm among the most common. The busiest days are Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, and weekend classes make up about a third of the week.
Facilitators are a team of about ten, and the studio's classes are spread across them, so the timetable varies from one day to the next.

How long are the classes?
Most classes run 60 minutes, though 45 and 75 minute versions exist for some styles, such as Power 45, Vinyasa 45, Soul Flow and Breathwork. Shorter classes suit a lunch break or a busy morning, and the longer ones give more time for slow movement and sound.
Who leads the classes?

Is Garden Hill Yoga good for beginners?
Yes. Yin and sound bath classes are a good fit for slower, quieter practice, and the Calm and Restore classes are gentle. Vinyasa 45 and Mat Pilates give a structured start without a long session. Ask the front desk which level suits you when you arrive.
