Yoga Wellbeing – Whitstable is a serene yoga studio located close to Whitstable town centre on a quiet street. Offering a variety of yoga classes, the studio specialises in hatha yoga with a strong emphasis on the nourishing power of the breath. For those looking to build more power into their sessions, vinyasa flow classes are also available.

In addition to their in-studio classes, Yoga Wellbeing creates a sense of community through their active Facebook and Google+ groups, welcoming individuals to join and connect with like-minded people.

The studio space itself is warm and inviting, providing a comfortable environment for yogis of all levels. Yoga Wellbeing believes that yoga is not solely about being extremely flexible, but rather about the holistic journey it provides. Alongside physical asana practise, the studio incorporates breathing exercises (pranayama) and meditation into their classes, making them accessible to all individuals, regardless of flexibility or experience.

For those curious about the relationship between meditation and mindfulness, Yoga Wellbeing believes that if one practises meditation with an open heart, mindfulness will naturally follow. Mindfulness, in their view, is essential to truly experiencing the benefits of meditation, much like eating a meal that has been prepared with care.

If you are new to yoga, Yoga Wellbeing offers an induction session to consider your overall wellbeing from both a physical and psychological perspective. This session will also delve into your reasons for becoming interested in yoga and what you hope to gain from it. The studio provides various resources such as reading lists and video lectures for those who wish to engage more deeply with the subject. Client development is closely monitored and adjustments are made as necessary, ensuring that each individual's yoga journey is tailored to their specific needs.

Yoga Wellbeing chose to establish their studio in Whitstable due to the town's unique coastal charm. Located on the north coast of Kent, Whitstable is just five miles north of Canterbury and two miles west of Herne Bay. The town is renowned for its “Native Oysters,” which have been collected from beds beyond the low water mark since Roman times. This rich history is celebrated annually during the Whitstable Oyster Festival, held in the summer.

Yoga sessions in Whitstable can take place in various picturesque locations, whether it be in the purpose-built residential studio, on the sandy beaches, or on the slopes of Tankerton. For those seeking privacy, Yoga Wellbeing also offers home sessions, as well as online classes.

Yoga Wellbeing can be contacted for classes by prior appointment only at The Retreat on Station Road, Whitstable. The studio's opening hours are from Monday to Friday, 10:00 AM – 9:00 PM.
