Align and Flow Yoga
Led by Deborah Le Vene-Page
Align and Flow Yoga is influenced by the biomechanics and heart orientated philosophy of the Anusara Hatha style of yoga. With a specific alignment focus within the flow of postures the practice will tone and strengthen the body, improve posture and create more freedom in the body and mind resulting in a calm and relaxed state of being.
Each week there will be a different theme weaving its’ way through the session, but a typical class starts with breathing techniques to centre and ground, poses to warm up and then progresses to a fun and challenging mix of vinyasa and alignment yoga.
This class is designed to cultivate focus, stamina, strength, and flexibility. Leaving time at the end for a well-deserved relaxation.
Come prepared for an energising class that will also leave you feeling relaxed.

The Seed of the Sacred Fig (15)
Dir: Mohammad Rasoulof 2024 | 167 mins
Farsi with English subtitles
Shot entirely in secret, Mohammad Rasoulof’s searing, award-winning thriller speaks to the dividing lines in Iranian society.
When Iman is appointed a judge in Tehran, his family is thrust into the public eye. As political unrest erupts in the streets, Iman realises his job is even more dangerous than expected. Becoming increasingly paranoid and distrustful, even of his own wife Najmeh and daughters Sana and Rezvan. His divided loyalties are exposed when his government-issued gun goes missing and suspicion falls on the women in his home.
Combining an electrifying generational battle with real-life footage of Iran’s protest movement, The Seed of the Sacred Fig has a lightning-in-a-bottle urgency that’s hard to capture in fiction or documentary alone.
A mesmerising drama about the courage it takes to resist toxic regimes.
Nominated for Best International Feature at this year’s Academy Awards and BAFTAs.
'Mohammad Rasoulof’s arresting tale of violence and paranoia in Iran' ★★★★ The Guardian
'Mohammad Rasoulof’s domestic thriller is an elegant warning to the Iranian regime' BFI Sight and Sound
