What
type of person does Outdoor Yoga suit?
Classes are tailored to suit all levels and are generally frequented
by both men and women ranging in age from their late teens upwards.
One can expect to find anyone from the beginner to keen yogi
sharing a class with the likes of rugby players, triathletes,
martial artists and people just wanting to give it a go.
What
do I need?
- On the first day you must arrive with your waiver
form signed and classes must be paid for prior to, or on
arrival.
- Water.
- Bring layers. Our Irish weather can change a lot in an hour.
- Yoga mat.
What
should I wear?
Loose comfortable clothing.
How
do I pay?
Class cards purchased at your first class. Please arrive a little
early.
What
type of Yoga is it?
The Outdoor Yoga classes are dynamic flowing classes where movement
is synchronised with the breath - not unlike an Ashtanga Vinyasa
class in that sense. As classes are only an hour long the focus
is on Asanas i.e. the movement limb of yoga - although students
are encouraged to use the peaceful surroundings of the parks
for personal meditation afterwards.
When
can I join?
Anytime.
Can
I try 1 class before committing to a 6 week course?
Of course. The drop-in rate is €15/€10 for lunchtime
(Must be booked in advance- click here
for contact details)
Can
I drop-in to classes?
Yes - but class places must be reserved in advance by phone
or email no later than 30 minutes before class start time. Click
here for contact
details. Drop-in places are subject to availability. May not
be available at all times scheduled.
I’m
not sure if I can commit to the same time every week. Can I
attend any of the scheduled classes to make up my class card?
We all have busy lives and things come up so you can attend
any six of the Outdoor Yoga classes provided:
- You reserve a place in the class you wish to attend no later
than 30 minutes before class start time.
- You bring your class pass.
- Your class pass is in date.
Who
will my teacher be?
All teachers are fully-qualified and insured with full permits
to teach at every location advertised.
I’ve
never tried Yoga before. Will the classes be too advanced?
All classes are programmed to challenge everyone participating
in a fun and easy-going atmosphere. Each and every client is
encouraged to take breaks whenever needed with emphasis on doing
what one can. Absolute beginners come down all the time so don’t
worry if it’s your first time.
I’ve
been practicing for some time now. Are the classes for beginners
only?
Each class is for all levels. Beginners are encouraged to take
breaks when needed and the more advanced students are encouraged
to try more advanced variations of each Asana (posture).
Where
can I find you in the Parks?

of the centre of the park.
Phoenix Park
Come to the Tea House which is right beside Dublin Zoo.
Herbert Park
