A regular, dynamic yoga class in the heart of Thirroul.

​

Thirroul Yoga Shala offers a weekly 90-minute guided Ashtanga yoga class in a spacious, light-filled room designed for calm, focused practice.

​This class is for people who enjoy moving their bodies, want to build strength and mobility over time, and appreciate a grounded, non-performative approach to yoga. There’s no pressure, no commitment, and plenty of space to practise at your own pace.

The Practice

​Classes are rooted in the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series and taught in a progressive, supportive way.

​Each session begins with breath-led movement to gently warm the body, followed by standing and seated postures that develop strength, stability, and mobility over time. The class concludes with rest and quiet seated contemplation.

​Modifications and options are offered throughout, allowing students to work intelligently within their own capacity while still feeling part of the group.​

The emphasis is on:

• steady breath

• clear alignment

• confidence and consistency

• respect for individual bodies​

You’ll leave feeling grounded and clear, rather than exhausted.

 

 

The Space

 

Classes are held in a large, beautiful room that comfortably accommodates up to 30 people.
There is plenty of room to move, rest, and breathe — the class is never crowded or rushed.
