Description

In this unique collaboration, Vinyasa flow yoga teacher Claire Missingham and composer Nitin Sawhney come together to explore life's journey of physical, spiritual and sacred fulfilment. Expect to join in a flowing yoga class, with sublime musical interludes in which Nitin and Claire share personal journeys through music and yoga – Nitin Sawhney, guest singer Nicki Wells and tabla player Aref Durvesh will play live with Claire leading the yoga class.

Open to all, but you'll enjoy it all the more if you have previous yoga experience.

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN YOGA MATS AND ANY PROPS YOU MIGHT NEED.
