Yoga Classes and Workshops in Belfast, Holywood and Newry.
Yoga which means "union", is an ancient science of life originating in India and dating back many thousands of years . It implies perfect harmony of body, mind and spirit. It is a complete "life" practice not just a physical fitness regime. Outward benefits such as slimness, suppleness, poise, coordination, tone, body fitness and good health are superficial benefits in comparison to the inner gains or goals of a calm, peaceful and relaxed mind. AYC was founded by a small group of traditionally or classically trained Yoga Teachers dedicted to keeping the ancient teachings of Classical (Raja) Yoga alive.
We believe that it for the individual to feel comfortable at all times, this is the meaning of "Asana" , comfortable seat. AYC teachers do not use blocks, straps or props but encourage students to work with the body's own intelligence and integrity.
