Three kinds of class depending on the week you're having. Options cued out loud in all of them, so you can take the strong version or the quiet one without anyone noticing.
Vinyasa
Continuous, breath-led movement. Strong, but nobody's checking whether your leg is straight.
Yin
Floor shapes held three to five minutes, propped so you can actually stay. Good for stiff hips and a loud head.
Restorative
Almost no movement. Bolsters, blankets, an hour where nothing is asked of you. People fall asleep. That's allowed.
Drop in to any of these. No membership, and no need to tell me you're coming.
If you run a studio, put a festival together, or teach something that would sit well beside yin, here's where I am at the moment. All of it is current, and I take it down when it isn't.
Covering classes
Short notice is fine, and I don't need a briefing. I've subbed at most of the studios in the centre and I know how to walk into a room that isn't mine.
A regular slot on your timetable
I have space for one more weekly class, ideally a weekday morning. I bring a group with me: about sixty people come to my classes regularly and a good number would follow.
Travelling to teach
Guest classes, weekend workshops, festival slots, and the yoga half of somebody else's retreat. I've done all four and I'm easy to have around.
Building something together
Almost everything I'm proudest of has been with someone else. Yin under Sofia's bowls has been running since spring and sells out every time. I'd like more of that.
I found yoga during a burnout year, not on a retreat brochure, in a cramped studio above a bakery in Porto. I was the stiffest person in the room by a distance and spent the first month staring at the ceiling wondering what everyone else knew that I didn't.
Ten years later that's still who I teach for. What I care about is that you leave knowing your own body slightly better than when you came in, not that you got the shape right.

What the room sounds like
Class changes, new retreats, and the odd last-minute space. Sent to you directly, not left to an algorithm to decide whether you see it.
