why surya tara yoga?

Creating inner balance is our main focus at Surya Tara yoga. The mind, body and soul are three aspects of our being ~ whilst practising our postures and alignment, we create inner strength , observe what comes up in the mind, and create space for nurturing our souls.

who are we?

We are a small yoga studio with an emphasis on attending to the needs of the individual. Our classes are usually 5-12 people in size and and are held at the the Hallett Cove Lions Club on Quailo Avenue, the old original Perry Barr Farm. This old restored barn is perfect for yoga, with a great ambiance and plenty of space. We have a range of classes to suit different levels and needs, from classes based on gentle stretching and meditative practices to the more dynamic morning classes. The style of yoga we practise is mostly based on alignment, but we tailor the yoga to suit the needs of our students. The aim of our classes is to quieten the mind, to establish a strong connection between the mind and body, and to find the joy in our hearts. This is yoga.

The studio is run by myself, Ruth Stanton – I share the classes with another local yoga teacher, Lisa Hobbs. We look forward to sharing our experience of yoga with you with the community that we have built together.
