Welcome to YogiSoc!

We are about all things wellness and yoga. We run a variety of yoga classes for students throughout term time, including Vinyasa Flow, Hatha, Yin, Power, restorative meditation, and a Foundations Class. We also run workshops and social events. Whether you’re a complete beginner or yoga enthusiast, YogiSoc has the perfect class for you.

All classes are held in the Large Rehearsal Room on the top floor of the Union unless stated otherwise. Attendance ranges from 5-25 participants per class, with evening classes filling up. Classes are first come first served, there are no advance sign-ups. Classes start promptly so we reccomend arriving 5-10 minutes early to queue up for membership checks, grab your props and get set up. Mats and props are always provided at no cost.

Our class schedule includes two classes daily (roughly 9 a week), and is posted on our Facebook and Instagram every Friday. We also send out a weekly email newsletter every Friday with our schedule and events; sign up for our mailing list at the top of this page!

Accessibility

We aim to make YogiSoc welcoming for all and as such have signed the accessibility pledge. This means that we will be running monthly disability classes, all events will be designed with disabilities in mind, and we shall ensure our social media is accessible. All events and classes will be accompanied with accessibility statements, and we will be transparent if a specific accommodation cannot be made. 

YogiSoc acknowledges the deeply spiritual, ancient roots of Yoga, originating in India over 5,000 years ago. We strive to respect the orginal traditions of Yoga and resist the appropriation and colonisation of this practice. 

Any concerns about the accessibility of YogiSoc can be reported to us via email (yogisoc@) or our confidential feedback form here and at the end of our emails.
