What does yoga philosophy look like when we actually practise it?

Join and for Yoga Philosophy in Practice — an afternoon of conversation, reflection and embodied exploration at Sol Centre.

We’ll begin with 75 minutes of philosophical discussion, exploring ideas and stories from yoga’s rich traditions through the framework:

INTENTION → ATTENTION → CONNECTION

Drawing on texts and teachings including the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gītā, Yoga Sūtras, Ta***ic treatises and the work of modern teachers, we’ll explore how philosophy can move beyond something we simply read or understand — and become something we experience.

Then Mary will lead a 75-minute physical practice, bringing these ideas off the page and into the body through movement, breath, pauses and awareness.

A workshop for teachers, trainees and curious practitioners who would like to go a little deeper — not in search of perfect answers or perfect postures, but through inquiry, experience and connection.

📅 Saturday 17 October
🕒 3:00–5:30pm
📍 Sol Centre
£45 general admission | £30 Yoga Teachers’ Club members

MONDAY REFLECTION | Is non-action also a form of action?

The Bhagavad Gītā is one of the most influential texts in the history of yoga. Through a conversation between the warrior Arjuna and Kṛṣṇa, it explores some of yoga’s enduring questions: How should we act? What is our responsibility? And how do we act without becoming attached to the outcome?

At the beginning of the Gītā, Arjuna is facing an impossible dilemma. He doesn’t know what the right thing to do is. Acting has consequences, but withdrawing from action has consequences too.

Later, the Gītā offers a fascinating idea: there can be action in inaction, and inaction in action.

I’ve been thinking about this recently, particularly after last week’s difficult news within the yoga community, and reflecting on the different ways we respond when something unexpected happens around us.

Sometimes something happens around us and we genuinely don’t know how to respond. We may want to help but worry that our intentions could be misunderstood. We may speak because remaining silent feels wrong. Or we may choose not to say anything publicly because speaking doesn’t feel like the most meaningful way to help.

But choosing not to act publicly is still a choice.

Not posting is a choice. Speaking is a choice. Helping quietly is a choice. Stepping back is a choice.

Perhaps, then, the question isn’t simply “Should I act?” but “What is moving me to act, or not to act?”

Fear? Self-interest? Compassion? A sense of responsibility? The desire to be seen doing the right thing? Or a genuine wish to help?

The Bhagavad Gītā doesn’t necessarily give us a simple world in which one choice is “yogic” and another isn’t. Instead, it invites us to look more carefully at our actions, our intentions and our attachment to their outcomes.
And perhaps yoga asks us not only to consider what we do, but also why we do it — reminding us that action can take many forms, and that some of the most meaningful ones may happen quietly, away from public view.
Something to reflect on this Monday. ☀️

Another week at Sol Centre ☺️

A bright and busy reception area, Chair Yoga, plenty of Barre burn, and the studio starting to feel extra cosy as the evenings get darker 🍂

Our second Chair Yoga taster went down a treat, the Barre crew keep coming back for more (and still leave smiling!), and we captured Anita doing her thing with some content filming 📸

A special thank you to Claire Lau for her donation of our beautiful new vase - in Sol purple, obviously 💜🌻

And perhaps the most exciting behind-the-scenes update of all… the sauna shower drain is finally fixed 😂🚿

Just a few little moments from another busy week at Sol 💜

THE CLOCKS ARE CHANGING. MAYBE IT’S TIME TO SLOW DOWN TOO. 🍂

Root & Release: A Seasonal Sound Bath Journey
with Dina Cohen & Martina Saorin

As the days grow shorter and we move into the quieter season, give yourself an evening to pause, let go and turn inward.

We’ll begin with gentle movement to shake off what you no longer need, followed by breathwork and restorative yoga to help you settle and ground. From there, you’ll be guided into meditation, deep relaxation and an immersive sound bath with gongs, singing bowls and other instruments.

Think of it as an autumn reset — a little space away from the noise to rest deeply, listen inward and make room for what you want to carry into the season ahead.

Dina and Martina have been working together for five years as part of the Humblewell Wellness team at Glastonbury Festival, offering yoga, sound baths and moments of calm amongst the festival crowds. Martina is a yoga teacher and sound therapist, while Dina brings 25 years of yoga teaching experience to her playful, intuitive approach.

🍂 Root & Release
✨ Movement + breathwork
✨ Restorative yoga
✨ Guided meditation
✨ Deep relaxation
✨ Gong & singing bowl sound bath

Come exactly as you are. Leave feeling a little lighter.

Yoga has never stood still.

From its beginnings in India, yoga has been interpreted, practised and transformed by different communities across centuries. Its meanings have changed too, from practices concerned with meditation, consciousness and liberation, to physical disciplines, systems of health and wellbeing, and eventually the many forms of modern postural yoga we recognise today.

The yoga that travelled around the world during the 20th century continued to evolve. New teachers, cultures and generations reshaped it, and we are still doing that now.

Today we have Hot Yoga, Power Yoga, Yin, Rocket, Flow and countless hybrids. Increasingly, we also see practices rooted in modern postural yoga appearing under entirely new names, sometimes incorporating music, weights, mobility work or other forms of movement.

Is yoga changing again?

Perhaps the more interesting question is: what remains when the forms keep changing?

For me, somewhere underneath all these transformations is a continuing exploration of what it means to inhabit a body and a mind, and how practice might support our physical, mental and spiritual lives.

From this week, our Sunday Reflection becomes Monday Reflection. Each Monday we’ll explore a little piece of yoga, its philosophy, history and changing practices, and occasionally the wider movement traditions that have crossed paths with it.

Not necessarily to find one definition of what yoga should be, but to understand a little better how we got here. ☀️Adriana, Sol Centre
