All of our York Classes are with one of Teapot’s yoga teachers, Amy. Amy offers a variety of practices throughout her classes and encourages you to see everything she offers as an invitation to explore, to be curious and to take what resonates and leave the rest. Amy invites to you find out what works well for you and to set your own boundaries by honouring your own needs.
Amy loves yoga philosophy and applying the learnings of this ancient wisdom to the societal issues we are facing today. Amy writes regularly on her Substack: she is currenly writing about each of the 196 yoga sutras. Join her on this explorative journey as a subscriber (it’s free!)
Yoga for Social Justice
This is a monthly accessible yoga class for folks who care deeply about the injustices of the world. Yoga is a practice where freedom is at the heart. What can we learn from yoga in our movements toward social justice? How can the practice of yoga support us to navigate these deeply turbulent times?
Each month will be themed and we’ll explore the theme through movement, meditation, mantra, mudra and more. We’ll practice for 1 hour followed by 30 mins of discussion in community.
We will offer multiple options for each practice, you can practice on a chair or on a mat. If you’re practicing on a mat please bring one with you (it can be a blanket or towel if you’d don’t have a mat).
Price: We operate a sliding scale of £5, £7 or £10. Please choose the price that matches your affordability no questions asked and there is no judgement for the option you choose. If these prices are inaccessible please send events@sparkyork.org an email to get a discount or free place.
Strength & Stillness
This is a weekly yoga class on Tuesdays 6:45pm-7:45pm at Orchard Park Community Centre in Huntington. This is an integrated class therefore you can either practice on a chair or a mat. Amy will be giving options for both. We are focusing on warming up the body, gently moving through some strengthening asanas followed by an exploration of stillness, quietening of the mind, through a multitude of mindfulness practices from chanting mantras to working with energy centres in the body. We’ll dedicate time for deep rest and relaxation too.
This class operates as a sliding scale so please pay the amount that you can afford. The price options are: £5, £7 or £10. You can either book via the link below or just turn up and pay in cash. Any questions please let Amy know.
