A RESOURCE FOR THE YOGA COMMUNITY IN OXFORD





Yoga Oxford



Why We Built This Site



This site has been developed as a resource for the yoga community in Oxford. Visitors to Oxford and those new to yoga are able to find the classes they will enjoy. Teachers can promote their classes, workshops and holidays.

If you are new to yoga, the best place to start is the descriptions of styles of yoga available and then look for the teachers who practice the style you prefer.

Information for the site is provided by teachers and we are unable to guarantee its accuracy or whether it is up to date. We suggest that you confirm details with the teacher before joining a class.

lotus sanctuary



Nurturing spirituality and sustainability



The Lotus Sanctuary is a centre for holistic living 30 minutes south of Oxford near The Ridgway. We run our own courses and the Centre is also available for hire. The beautiful grounds of around an acre make an ideal venue for hosting yoga and/or meditation courses or retreats. There is a 45-square metre log cabin studio with stunning far reaching views over the valley and the Downs. The Centre also has a wild flower meadow, vegetable garden and orchard perfect for teaching courses promoting sustainability. Nestling in a secluded valley in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, yet easily accessible from Oxford, Newbury, Reading and London, the Centre's setting brings a deep connection with the natural world that immeasurably enhances the benefits of yoga and meditation practice and is a beautiful place to host such courses. The vast and gently rolling North Wessex Downs lie on our doorstep. Our vision is simple: to offer courses based on principles and practices to nurture ourselves and our environment thereby promoting a more positive spiritual and sustainable lifestyle to benefit our generation and future generations. We provide a beautiful location, warm personalised service and a suitable environment to facilitate our courses. For teachers whose visions are aligned with ours, we are happy to give space and support for their training and work. For further information, our website is www.thelotussanctuary.com.

Yoga Quota’s 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training



Spreading the Benefits of Yoga





Our objective is to train passionate, enthusiastic and compassionate teachers who pride themselves on their commitment to sharing yoga with everybody. Yoga Quota's 200 hour Teacher Training offers an internationally-recognised qualification (Yoga Alliance US), which meets strict syllabus requirements. You'll be trained in a contemporary vinyasa flow style, with secondary focusses on yin, restorative, accessibility yoga for pregnancy, disability, elderly & children. ​You’ll be empowered and encouraged in every aspect of your yoga practice from day one.

Yoga Quota’s YTT is one of the most flexible options out there: take all modules sequentially, or mix-and-match to create a schedule that suits your lifestyle. With streams running throughout the year you can start pretty much immediately and work at your own pace. Teaching groups are kept small (10-12 students maximum) to ensure quality learning and individual attention. Check out our website (http://www.yogaquota.com/200-hrs-teacher-training.html) for more info on our flexible pricing options. A 10% student discount is available with valid ID.

Charity is the backbone of what we do: you'll be trained to teach accessible yoga and supported to find charity classes in your area. All of the profit from your training goes towards Yoga Quota funding charity yoga classes around the UK. You’ll also be able to teach as soon as you feel ready. Our “Green Vinyasa” class is for our trainees to practice their teaching in a studio environment with real clients.

'The YQ YTT course is sheer brilliance and the community that surrounds it is friendly and empowering.' Isobel, 2017
