A yoga practice in the evening
Most of the practice at element yoga is yoga in the evening. Classes start between 5:30pm and 8pm, and the busiest starts fall around 5:30pm, 7:15pm and 8pm. Monday and Thursday carry the most classes, so these are the evenings to plan around.
The classes are mainly vinyasa and hatha yoga. Vinyasa links traditional hatha postures into a flowing, energizing sequence, and the class listed for level one and two suits people with some experience. Hatha is slower and more detailed, with each posture explained step by step, which makes it a good fit for people who want to refresh their practice or learn the basics properly.
What a visit is like
The studio is in Essen, not Düsseldorf, and the classes are taught in German. Most lessons run for about ninety minutes, while the hatha class is a little shorter at seventy-five minutes. Because the practice is focused on yoga alone, you will find a consistent rhythm of flowing and grounding classes rather than a mix of styles.
