Hatha yoga

Hatha is a yoga practice that aims to bring balance to mind and body. It's designed to help you maintain overall health and well-being as you match breathing to postures.

Yin yoga

A slower-paced session, you’ll hold postures for longer periods of time in Yin than other yoga classes. With a greater focus on meditation and reflection, you’ll leave feeling relaxed and revitalised.

Mat Pilates in Edinburgh Shawfair

As well as our yoga sessions, we offer Pilates mat classes. There are similarities between these two low-impact workouts, but one of the key differences is that unlike most styles of yoga, in Pilates you sometimes use resistance equipment as well as bodyweight. Pilates focuses on strengthening the core to benefit the whole body, but there's usually some flexibility work, too.

Beginner-friendly yoga classes

We welcome members of all abilities and experience to our yoga classes.

Sessions are led by experienced yoga instructors who will patiently and expertly guide you through every bend and stretch. They can adapt postures and sequences to suit every level, so you'll feel comfortable no matter where you are in your yoga journey, even as a total beginner.

Benefits of yoga

Yoga is a holistic form of exercise, which means it helps you take care of both your mind and your body. As well as fitness benefits - improved strength, flexibility and posture - research has also linked yoga to reduced stress and enhanced mood.

What to bring to a yoga class at David Lloyd Edinburgh Shawfair & how to book

We'll provide everything you need in our yoga classes, such as mats and props, but feel free to bring your own mat if you prefer. Wear comfortable clothing, and it's a good idea to have a water bottle on hand if you're doing a dynamic yoga class. Think you might appreciate some extra grip? You can also bring your own non-slip grip socks and/or gloves.

Booking is stress-free with the David Lloyd Clubs app. Simple navigate to the timetable from the home screen and select the session you want.
