Welcome to Elowen
A calmer space for your everyday life.
We opened Elowen in 2019 with a simple idea: a yoga studio should help you slow down, not speed up. Every class is capped at sixteen people, every teacher knows your name, and nobody is in a rush to roll up their mat.
Classes every week, from sunrise flows to candlelit Yin
Teachers with over sixty years of experience between them
People maximum in any class, so no one gets lost

What we offer
Thoughtfully built for calm, strength and balance.
Four ideas shape every class we teach, whether it’s your first time on a mat or your thousandth.
Move with strength
Slow, deliberate sequences build the kind of strength you notice on the stairs, in the garden and at the end of a long day.
Breathe with ease
Every class begins and ends with the breath. You will learn techniques you can use long after you leave the room.
Rest without guilt
Yin, restorative and guided rest are part of the practice here, not an afterthought squeezed into the last two minutes.
Grow at your pace
Options for every shape, teachers who check in, and no pressure to keep up with anyone but yourself.

The studio
A little space to reset.
Two rooms filled with morning light, warm wooden floors and real plants. Mats, bolsters and blankets are washed after every class, and the kettle is always on.
This week
Make time for your practice.
A rhythm of morning, midday and evening classes, so there’s always one that fits around the rest of your life.

“I came for my back. I stayed because I leave every class feeling lighter than I arrived.”

The teachers notice everything, in the kindest way. My balance has never been better.

Wednesday Yin is the only hour in my week when my phone is in another room. I protect it fiercely.

I was nervous about my first class. Juno made it feel easy. Six months later I’m still coming three times a week.
