ABOUT US
ABOUT US
We are Cambridge hot yoga collective Girton and we are passionate about hot style yoga. We are delighted to be able to bring this beneficial practice to our community here in Girton.
​
The yoga series is made up of 26 postures performed in a warm room, enabling you to really connect with your practice and benefit from being able to stretch your body in the warmth.
The postures never change and are always repeated in the same order. They always feel different and always leave you feeling great.
The practice is strong & disciplined and really challenges you but it is
suitable for all levels from beginners to advance as well as different fitness levels and ages.
If you do want to attend class, you will be very welcome, just remember to hydrate throughout the day and avoid eating 2 hours before class.
This style of yoga, is not suitable in the first 3 months of pregnancy and after that, it is only for very experienced expecting practitioners.
​
Come and try it and perhaps you’ll love it as much as we do.
OUR TEACHERS
ASIF
Asif uses his yoga and martial arts experience to find mental and physical balance in all aspects of life. He was first introduced to yoga while competing at national level, finding that the physicality of martial arts was complemented perfectly with the meditation and breathing of yoga.
It was this realisation and the belief that mindfulness and wellness is what we need more of in society today that motivates him to help others.
​
When not teaching yoga, he loves spending time with his family, travelling and photography
SHAFIYA
With a scientific background, Shafiya has always had a passion for understanding the human mind and body. Her interest in yoga began when she had a back injury and was looking for an alternative form of rehabilitation.
Through consistent practice, she discovered the benefits of yoga. She finds it to be the perfect holistic approach to balance physical and mental wellbeing. She embarked on a teacher training program to share her knowledge with others and continue her own practice.
​
As a mother, she appreciates the miracles and capabilities of the human body as well as some of the challenges it brings! She is passionate about helping others find their calm.
