Yoga
Regular Yoga practice can have a profound affect on health and well-being. At Pingala we offer group and private Yoga classes, focusing on energy alignment and breath.
We offer a variety of styles including vinyasa, ashtanga, restorative and Yoga Nidra.
Yoga is for all ages, and can help to improve strength and build core strength, as well as relax and find stillness. Yoga can also help to build cardio.
We are experienced teachers who have witnessed first-hand the amazing affect this practice can have on individuals.
Ayurveda
Ayurveda, which means 'science of life', is at the centre of much of what we do at Pingala. This ancient system of healing is the sister science of Yoga, and is a complete modality for health and healing; it encompasses diet, nature and exercise.
Ayurveda treats everyone as an individual, with their own 'prakriti' or constitution. It can then be assessed what is the best treatment for that person to achieve health and balance.
Cooking
Food truly is medicine, and at Pingala we teach cooking and preparing food to bring a person into balance and treat illness and disease.
We believe in real food; delicious, easy to prepare and full of nutrition, for a happy, healthy body.
We prepare food from all over the world, vegan and vegetarian using raw and superfoods.
If you are interested in learning how to prepare food for health, we offer group and individual classes.
Treatments
Treatments at Pingala include massage, reflexology and energy work. Massage focuses on the person's individual constitution. It is then decided which oils to use, if any. Massage types offered include shiatsu, tsuina and abhyanga.
Reflexology focuses on the feet and uses cream.
We also offer reiki and energy work, as well as chakra and crystal healing.
Other treatments include facials, head and hair, and nails.
Meditation
Meditation is a great tool for self-realisation, and it is fundamental to everything we do at Pingala. We teach a variety of different techniques enabling the practitioner to discover stillness and inner peace.
