Yin
Postures held for minutes at a time, cosied up with blankets and bolsters. A slow practice rooted in Chinese medicine that challenges the mind to find stillness, and leaves you restored.

Meet Ashton
“Yoga is a hug on a mat, and that is how I hope every class feels.”
Hi, I’m Ashton. I’ve practised yoga for over fifteen years, and I have been teaching since 2018. Years in an office taught me that moving regularly wasn’t optional for my wellbeing, and now I’m lucky enough to share that with hundreds of people every week.
Yoga is more than a physical practice. You don’t need to be flexible to begin. You only need to be flexible of mind. Every class offers modifications, whatever your experience.

Good to know
Do I need to be flexible?
No. You don't need to be flexible to do yoga. You need only be flexible of mind. Modifications are offered in every class, whatever your experience.
I've never done yoga before. Which class should I start with?
Both classes welcome complete beginners. Choose vinyasa if you want to move and build energy, yin if you want to slow down and stretch deeply. And your first class is half price with code FIRSTCLASS.
What's the difference between vinyasa and yin?
Vinyasa (Yang to Yin) is a music-led flowing practice that raises your heart rate and softens towards the end. Yin is slow and still: postures held for minutes at a time, cosied up with blankets and bolsters.
Do you teach reformer Pilates?
Yes. Reformer Pilates runs every Wednesday, 8 – 8.45 pm at FitLife Haddenham, and you can book it like any other class. Ashton also offers mat Pilates and personal training as private sessions, arranged directly with her.
Where do classes run?
Vinyasa is weekly on Tuesdays, 8 – 9 pm at FitLife Gym in Haddenham, and reformer Pilates weekly on Wednesdays, 8 – 8.45 pm, at the same studio. Private sessions and personal training run around Oxford and the Buckinghamshire border. The timetable above is live, so it always shows exactly what is bookable next, wherever it is.
How do I book?
Everything runs through Bookwhen. Pick your class, pay, and you're on the mat. Spaces are limited, so booking ahead is the safe move.
Retreats & workshops
Time set aside for yourself, off the clock and on the mat. Ashton’s retreats and workshops run from a few focused hours to a full day, gathering a small group for movement, food and stillness.
