Hatha Yoga in Sprowston

At: Sprowston Diamond Centre
When: Tuesdays 5:40pm–6:40pm

Hatha Yoga at Sprowston Diamond Centre is the north-east Norwich class, the one that’s easiest to reach from Thorpe St Andrew, Old Catton, Rackheath, Spixworth and the NR7/NR6 postcodes. The Diamond Centre is a modern community building with wide corridors, accessible toilets and a spacious practice room called The School Room, with a suspended wooden floor. It’s one of the most comfortable venues I teach in. The Tuesday evening class has a slightly more mixed age profile than some of the other venues: retirees, men and women in their 40s through 60s, and a smaller handful of younger students, and the community here is warm and notably friendly. Parking is abundant and free. For anyone living in the north-east of Norwich who has been driving further west for classes, this is the obvious switch. For residents of Rackheath, Wroxham and Coltishall, it’s often easier than going into the city. The class itself is standard Blossom Yoga Hatha: careful sequencing, variations offered throughout, a long supported rest at the close, and an atmosphere that quietly makes the rest of the week better.

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.
