What the practice feels like
The classes at yoga met monique are mostly yin and hatha, with yoga nidra and meditation alongside them. Yin asks you to hold each pose for several minutes, so the work happens gradually, in the connective tissue and joints rather than through effort. Hatha classes follow the saswitha approach and cover a range of postures at an unhurried pace.
Most classes start in the evening, and a smaller number begin in the morning, around 10am. Monday, tuesday and thursday carry the most classes, so these are the days to expect a fuller room.
Who leads and who it suits
Monique Luneburg leads most of the classes at the studio. Many of them are open to all levels, and the first class ever option gives newcomers a starting point. Each class runs about 75 minutes, which leaves room to move, rest and come back to the breath.
For a first visit, the hatha yoga light class or a yin session is a sensible choice. Both keep the pace steady and do not ask for prior experience.
