Blithe Yoga

Blithe Yoga Blithe Yoga is a welcoming, community-led not-for-profit dedicated to making yoga and holistic wellbeing accessible to all.

Come as you are - there’s always space for you here. BLITHE YOGA was founded by Lexi Elven in 2016. Lexi has been practicing yoga since 2003 after coming to the UK from Hong Kong and needing a discipline to compliment her martial arts and dance foundation. Through this love of mental focus as well as the joy of movement her classes combine strong asanas (postures) with an energetic and playful
spirit. As a musician with a keen interest in pranayama and philosophy, she focuses on how the mind and body can benefit from sound-work and meditation. Blithe Yoga is currently based in Forest Gate, London

My mother never cooked with her mother, my grandmother was an amazing cook and we all learned her recipes. But we never cooked together, she was the Queen of her domain. Mum and I cook really well together, it’s probably our best shared skill. On Winter Solstice, us Chinese like to gather and eat with family and here is mum and I cooking for our family. May we gather to enjoy the longest night of the year and look forward to brighter days to come.

HUGE UPDATE! Courses, workshops and events are on the website now. I have gone a bit mad in the process and with no internet have resorted to entertaining myself - guitar skills a bit rusty - lots of love xx

Farewell to our wonderful London home. Where we have spent almost 10 years in. Where we grew as a family. Where I first taught yoga as a supper club, to babies after giving birth, made friends, decided to open a yoga studio, became an online studio during the pandemic. Thank you for all the memories and keeping us safe. Thank you 💜

For those of you who messaged me. My family and friends are safe, but so many others are grieving hard. It’s the ugly, shocking kind of grief that brings out care and love for one another. Help if you can.

Our Story

"Blithe: showing high spirits or lightheartedness; joyfulness, playfulness and exhilaration."

Blithe Yoga was founded in 2016 by Lexi Elven. We moved into our studio location in the autumn of 2018.

The small team who teach our classes are extremely passionate about bringing all themes of yoga to their students. Each with a differing style but all with the highest quality. Delivering serious yoga with a playful spirit.

Our yoga & meditation ranges from stronger dynamic styles to gentler slower paces; for those that are pregnant; to parents and babies. We also provide a Community Yoga class every Wednesday evening at 6:15pm, this is a non-profit class where all proceeds go towards local homeless charity “Lola’s Homeless”.
