Shennon’s 90 minutes practice is what one would describe as challenging but rewarding. Designed as an immersion of Ashtanga-style practice and MUST be incorporated with Fun, Laughter and Endurance, this class is suitable for everyone with an open mind and a smiley face. Having the garden as a backdrop, nothing compares to the combination of nature, yoga and (simply!) breathing. We invite you to take a break from the buzz of everyday life and instead have fun on a Saturday morning in this nourishing practice. See you on the mat!

Encompassing the ability to connect with people, teaching was a natural route after completing Ashtanga teacher’s training in 2010. Since then, continuous professional development is a big part of Shennon’s reflection and evaluation of her own practice and that reflects in the enthusiasm she exudes in class.

Shennon’s Yoga course is quite involved and not suitable for beginners.

You might know us as the Ventnor Botanic Garden, but many years ago our site was the Royal National Hospital. Boasting one of the freshest, cleanest air climates in the country; the Hospital was seen as a natural remedy for Tuberculosis. Today, much of the old Hospital is destroyed, but the site’s heritage can still be seen and heard by those perceptive enough…

Join Marc Tuckey every Tuesday as he tells the garden’s story with a Ghost Walk! Get exclusive entry down our underground Victorian tunnel (pictured below).

Walk begins at 8pm, meet in the Car Park at least ten minutes before.

Bihar/Satyananda yoga classes are accessible for everyone regardless of age, gender, physical ability or experience. They emphasise the spiritual and meditative side of yoga. Classes include postures, breathing, meditation, deep relaxation and chanting. Although the structure of the class is similar each week, the content takes you through a journey of progression and self-awareness.

For Nickie the focus is on ensuring that the class practices can be transferred to daily life ensuring students maximise their physical good health, mental wellbeing and sense of purpose not just when they leave class but throughout the whole week.
