When: Thursdays 6:30pm–7:30pm

Regulars: Book this class Join the waiting list

Hatha Yoga at The Pavilion at Cringleford Recreation Ground is one of the two closest in-person Blossom Yoga venues to Norwich: five to ten minutes from most of south and west Norwich, with a modern hall, good heating and free parking directly outside. The Thursday evening class has become a settled community of Norwich residents, UEA staff, and the surrounding streets: Eaton, Costessey, Keswick, Unthank, Newmarket Road. The class is classical Hatha: careful warm-up, held standing and seated poses, long supported rest at the close.

What distinguishes Cringleford is the character of the group. There is a roughly equal balance of men and women, spanning their 30s to their 70s, and most have been coming for years. It is the strongest class on the schedule: a committed, long-standing group who have improved together and who genuinely enjoy a strong, challenging practice. Ania teaches to that level.

The class is limited to sixteen students and is currently full, with a waiting list. To join the waiting list, contact Ania directly. When a place comes free, first visits are easy: parking is never a stress and the group is welcoming without fuss.

About Hatha Yoga

What the practice involves

Hatha Yoga at Blossom Yoga is a careful, traditional practice: classical postures held long enough to settle the body and quiet the mind, sequenced with breath work, and taught with individual attention. Classes build strength and flexibility gradually and suit beginners alongside experienced students. The pace is unhurried, the room is warm, and nothing is competitive. This is yoga for everyday bodies, taught in Norwich and surrounding villages since 2014.
