Small Group Classes
Regular grounded yoga sessions in small-group classes, focused on building strength and stability from the foundations up. Each class moves at a considered pace, creating space for awareness, guidance, and steady progression without pressure to perform.
Suitable for beginners and those returning to practice.
Small Group Classes are 60 minutes long.
Each class has a maximum of 8 students, so you get personal attention, space to grow, and a more supportive experience.
We teach across multiple locations in Hertfordshire.

Faqs
-
Classes at Alaya Wellness are intentionally small, allowing space for careful guidance and a calm, supportive atmosphere.
We begin slowly, often lying or seated, with breath awareness and gentle somatic movements to help the body arrive and release tension from the day. From there, movement gradually builds through simple sequences that develop strength, mobility and balance, always guided by the rhythm of the breath.
The pace of practice is unhurried, allowing time to feel how the body moves and organise each posture with stability and ease.
Each class concludes with an extended savasana — a quiet ritual of rest supported by gentle hands-on adjustments, calming oils and sound. This final part of the practice allows the nervous system to settle deeply and the body to fully integrate the work.
Classes are suitable for a wide range of bodies and experience levels. Options and adaptations are always offered so that you can move in a way that feels supportive and sustainable for you.
-
The Alaya Method welcomes a wide range of bodies and experience levels.
It may feel particularly supportive if you are:
New to yoga and looking for a gentle, thoughtful place to begin.
Returning to movement after a break or period of stress.
Seeking a slower, more intentional style of practice.
Interested in developing strength and stability without rushing or strain.
Looking for a space where rest and nervous system care are valued as much as movement.
Many students come to Alaya simply wanting a moment in the week to slow down, reconnect with their bodies and move with greater awareness.
-
Classes welcome beginners as well as those with more experience. Movements are taught slowly with clear guidance and options, allowing you to move at a pace that feels supportive for your body.
-
Yoga mats and props are available in the studio, so there is no need to bring anything unless you prefer to use your own mat.
Wear clothing that feels comfortable and allows you to move freely without restriction.
-
The practice builds strength gradually but avoids rushing or forcing the body. Movements are slow and deliberate, allowing the body to develop stability and resilience over time.
As with any movement practice, it is important to listen to your body and recognise when to ease off or when you feel ready to build strength.
-
Options and modifications are often offered during class so that you can move in a way that feels supportive for your body.
However, you know your body best. If you have an injury or health concern, it is important to move within your own limits, and if you are unsure it is always advisable to consult your doctor or health professional before attending.
-
Classes can be booked online through the website. Simply choose the class you would like to attend and follow the booking instructions.
If you have any questions before your first class, please feel free to get in touch — I’m always happy to help.
