Richmond Win at UK Yoga Championships

Our school enjoyed incredible success at this year's UK Yoga Asana Championships. Twelve students from Richmond entered the championships and trained hard for many months in preparation. All that hard work paid off when Kristin Bergman and Matt Farci, both representing Richmond, won the Women's and Men's Division. And it didn't stop there, Sue Gosling from our school came 3rd in the Women's and Cassiano Garcia came 3rd in the Men's.

Good luck to Kristin and Matt who are now training towards representing the UK at the International Championships in Los Angeles in February.

Full Results:

Johnny at International Yoga Championships

In January, Johnny competed at the UK Asana Championships and went on to represent the UK at the International Asana Championships held in Los Angeles in February.

"I didn't think I was ready to compete this year but I'm glad that I did as being involved with the international competition was quite an inspirational experience."

Johnny spent a week training with Mary Jarvis at his old studio in San Francisco prior to heading to LA for the finals.

Competition Winner

Congratulations to John Middleton. John entered our website launch competition and won himself a year membership at the studio worth £999!

New Website Launch

Welcome to our new website! We hope you like our new look. We will be adding a couple of further features to this site in the coming weeks, including some Flash and more info on our Community pages.

Studio Facelift

If you haven't been into the studio for a while, you may not recognise us when you come back in! We are half-way through a full revamp of the reception area and have re-fitted out the men’s toilet area. We’ll post some more photos of the studio space once the work is complete.

Even more exciting than the building work is what we are doing with the stairwell and down into the front porch where we are positioning a number of big canvas prints from our photo-shoot that took place earlier in the year.
