What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?
I love sitting cross-legged, which is known as padmasana or lotus. It's simple but reminds me of my childhood and it's such a comforting pose for me that I find myself sitting in very often. I feel grounded, long in my spine and it instantly signals me to focus on my breathing.

I love all inversions because the fun of going upside down still gets me! Most hated pose = warrior 1!

Nina
Yoga Teacher
What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?
I see the benefits of every style of yoga, generally I lean towards practices with a steady pace and plenty of space to breath and explore. For me that includes ashtanga, jivamukti and yin.

It always changes but at the moment my favourite is the dolphin pose. I feel strong when I’m in it.

What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?
I love restorative poses like reclined butterfly. Also, love leg strengthening work in lunge variations. I am led by my intuition what style of yoga I feel I need. I will practice Ashtanga and Flow and equally love Basics and Restore.

Yoga Teacher
What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?
My favourite pose changes throughout the year as sometimes my body finds some poses soothing, relaxing comforting but sometimes I am craving a more powerful stronger asana. I am really enjoying wild thing at the moment- it opens the heart space and feels amazing in all it’s glory.

Yoga Teacher
What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?
My favourite yoga pose is Urdhva Padmasana - Upward Lotus Pose - I've loved this pose ever since I did it for the first time in an ashtanga class. It's a pose in which the body feels very light but also grounded, almost like you could stay there forever.
My background as a yogi is ashtanga, and I still love it for the consistency and easy to measure progress. In a sense this is why my favourite style is rocket yoga, as it retains those elements of ashtanga but also allows for a more creative and playful side to the practice, as well as making a lot of the poses more accessible to a wider range of practitioners.

What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?
I LOVE Yoga Nidra. So relaxing. But I also love a strong dynamic flow such as Jivamukti.

Ella
Yoga Teacher
What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?
I love Ashtanga Yoga because it seems like such a simple practice but it’s not. As a system it’s got many layers; parts of the sequence are really fun, parts are challenging, parts seem simple but there are always ways to explore within that.

It's got to be chair pose/utkatasana! It helps me to feel powerful, stimulated and strong.
