Most gentle and relaxing yoga classes with relaxing music accompanied by a mindfulness meditation customised for plus size bodies or with limited mobility.
Body Love Yoga is focusing on accepting and loving your body just the way it is. It is specifically designed for round-bodied people with a desire to try yoga for the first time or if regular classes cause discomfort. However, no matter the shape, size, age or gender - everyone is welcome. No experience required. These classes focus on creating comfort, safety, community and connection. Non-competitive classes include deep relaxation practices, gentle poses, mindful movement with a mindfulness meditation at the end. Small class sizes ensure lots of individual attention and modifications. The classes are led by Eugenia Nikiforow. Eugenia is a Nutrition and Mindfulness Coach, Yoga Instructor and a Business Psychologist. She is a founder is Body Love Yoga and MindFoodNess. "I have a personal experience of healing body hatred, negative self-talk and an eating disorder with yoga. I believe that yoga can be healing for every BODY, no matter the shape, size, ability, age or gender. It is my Mission to provide space for you to experience love and compassion for yourself to heal your wounds, no matter what they are." - Eugenia
Hope to see you soon.

A Reminder, No Class this evening Labour Day.
To all the wonderful people who have been coming to classes over the past few years, it is with sadness that I let you know that I will be stepping away from leading Bodylove yoga. It has been a difficult decision to make, but with family and other work commitments it has become increasingly difficult to find balance and it's time to step down. The last Bodylove class will be held on Monday 24th November 6pm.
Rest assured any of you who have remaining classes on your concession cards at that date will be fully refunded for any unused sessions.
It has been such a pleasure over the years guiding you through these practices and I will miss seeing you all. I very much hope to see you all sometime/somewhere. Reach out via pm if you have any questions.
With Love

Body Love Yoga are the most gentle yoga classes specifically designed for people who don’t feel comfortable going to regular yoga classes because of their body shape or size, because they haven’t done yoga before or just because they are looking for a safe and comfortable environment to connect with other women.
Eugenia, the founder or Body Love Yoga, focuses on creating comfort, safety, community and connection. These are non-competitive classes that include deep relaxation practices, gentle poses, strength building classes accompanied by mindful movement with a mindfulness meditation at the end.
We have two classes per week:
Tuesday - Restorative Yin Yoga with Mindfulness meditation
This class is suitable specifically for plus size bodies, people with injuries or limited mobility, beginners or if you are looking for a meditative relaxing yoga class with music accompanied by a mindfulness meditation.
Body Love Yoga is focusing on accepting and loving your body just the way it is.
Thursday - Shape up yoga class
This is a slightly more advanced class for those who want to get stronger, fitter, get their heart beat up and build toned lean muscles. However, you don’t need to have done yoga before and no matter your shape, size or gender. Everyone is welcome. I always adjust my classes to my students’ needs.
Your safety is my MUST. Small class sizes ensure lots of individual attention and modifications.
