“Folc is a hidden gem, but once you step through the door you're glad you discovered it.”

Life can be challenging, scary, hard, complex and overwhelming at times. And that’s OK.

Our studio is specifically designed to create a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. We’re here to help you reset and get back to you.

No matter where you’re at, we’ve got you.

Our core classes

  • Dynamic Flow

    A breath-led yoga flow drawing on Ashtanga, Vinyasa, and Hatha to build strength, flexibility, and present-moment focus.

  • Mindful Flow

    A steady, accessible vinyasa flow linking breath with movement to build strength, mobility, and present-moment awareness.

  • Sunrise Flow

    A breath-led morning yoga flow to awaken body and mind, build mobility, and set a focused, energised tone for your day.

  • Yoga for Beginners

    A welcoming, slower-paced introduction – foundational postures, simple breathwork, and guided meditations included.

  • Stretch & Strengthen

    A slower-paced session combining gentle stretches with strengthening exercises to release tension and build stability.

  • Pilates

    A low-impact, mat-based session to strengthen your core, improve posture, and build body awareness through controlled movement.

    A gentle, supported yoga session using a chair throughout — ideal if getting up and down from the floor feels challenging.

  • Restorative & Somatics

    A trauma-informed session blending restorative yoga, somatic movement, and breathwork to rest and regulate your nervous system.

  • Somatic Slow Flow

    A mindful flow combining Vinyasa, Hatha, and somatic movement to reconnect mind and body from the inside out.
