3 Best Yoga Classes in Aberdeen, UK

I first went to the Yoga Spot around 2011 following recommendations from a friend. I was hoping to increase mobility and strength and to find a way of dealing with the stress of everyday life and work. Michele showed infinite patience as I struggled to learn the postures in an Ashtanga Mysore class. Michele is both firm and nurturing in her approach. She has an excellent sense of humour and just when I think I have reached my limit she helps me to get that little bit further. At first I thought I would be embarrassed as I was so much older than the others but Michele made sure that I never felt that I was lagging behind the other students.

I have suffered from lower back pain and morning stiffness for many years. I had tried yoga on and off at different studios but just under 2 years ago I walked into the Yoga Spot and never looked back! I started with Michele's Ashtanga style Power yoga classes and love them. As my practice has grown I have attended other classes, there is so much choice. Michele is so supportive and has given me encouragement, strength and confidence which I can take off the mat and into daily life. And the back pain ­- it's gone.

Michele is a dedicated, highly experienced yoga practitioner and through teaching passes her knowledge on, bringing out the best in her students. Her classes are energising, challenging, fun and always worth it.

I wasn’t sure what to expect but I am loving yoga. The classes are structured to challenge but have choice. I am achieving things I never thought I could. Lauren is an excellent instructor who makes you feel very comfortable and encourages everyone whilst being very attentive. There is a very positive atmosphere in the classes. I cannot recommend them enough.

I have been attending classes since the studio opened. I was a little apprehensive at the beginning as an overweight, retired,creaky lady and as flexible as a brick but Lauren and all the other tutors could not have been more encouraging. I really enjoy the classes and find that my body is responding to the poses and philosophy. The other attendees are all friendly and encouraging too.

I find the range of different classes available at the studio really enjoyable. Having been away from practice for a number of years, Lauren was extremely helpful in advising which of the sessions would be most beneficial to me. The overall benefit has been great.
