Yes. Yoga with Romy is highly individualised using many different props to suit your specific needs. If you are not very flexible, the yoga will help you relieve a lot of tension in the system.

It really depends on the injury. Romy invites each participant to a complimentary 15 minute session to identify issues and ascertain whether classes will be suitable. In many instances they are.

Romy’s classes are very small, with a maximum of 6 people in each class. Each person is made to feel very comfortable as an individual. We recommend you try one class and see how you feel. We strongly believe the support and care we offer will immediately make you feel at home. Each person is honoured as an individual in Romy’s classes.

Props help individualise the yoga so that every person, no matter their situation, can access a pose. They also help you get deeper into the pose, creating a more potent positive effect.

Although our classes are highly individualised, private sessions are great for people who want a more personalised focus and more flexible scheduling. Some people like to combine the two.

FAQs - Meditation

Find answers to common questions about our services and policies.

Meditation is not about stopping the thinking mind. This is a common misnomer. Nobody can stop their mind from thinking, it’s a human attribute. In meditation we learn how to cultivate attention, and if our mind wanders off, we simply bring it back to what we are placing out attention on. The more we notice our mind wander and bring it back, the better we get at harnessing our attention. This is the process of meditation. As we get gaps in our thinking, we experience deep relaxation in those gaps.

One of the greatest benefits of meditation is that it gives the brain a rest and therefore leads to greater clarity and efficiency. So, people who meditate often need less time to get things done.

Meditation accesses different brainwaves that induce blissful and relaxed states.

Meditation when sitting is cultivating attention when you command that of your mind, not only when it just happens. This helps us reach peaceful states during all phases of life, i.e. during easy times and difficult times.
