Seven Chakras is a top-tier yoga studio opened by Rebecca Gulvin in 2017. The studio is comprised of highly knowledgeable and experienced teachers who deliver unparalleled classes designed for a range of abilities. Rebecaa established Seven Chakras with the aim of creating a safe, calm, and peaceful space that welcomes her clients to let their guard down and heal both their minds and bodies through yoga. “I want to provide a welcoming space for everyone to be able to work with the mind, body, and soul,” she tells us. “I’d like to help people, whether physically or mentally and provide them with a safe space to do that. COVID-19 showed us that peoples’ needs are always evolving and changing, and we are alwayss trying to improve, learn more, enhance the experience, and learn where we can.” Rebecca tells us that the COVID-19 pandemic and its subsequent lockdowns were incredibly difficult for the fitness industry, with the cost of living crisis bringing additional adverse effects. However, consumer behaviours have begun to shift in recent years as people start to invest in their mental and physical health once again. Seven Chakras has noted an increase in the number of clients returning to the studio, in addition to new clients. Seven Chakras offers a wide range of yoga classes taught by specialists who have been trained extensively in their individual disciplines and strive to share their vast knowledge and learned experiences with clients to promote their overall health, vitality, and wellbeing. The studio offers classes suitable for all levels of ability, offering recommendations for beginners tailored on their individual needs and objectives. Beginner Yoga is taught for those with no experience and is taught Wednesday and Thursday nights, whilst a variety of other classes are aimed at different objectives. Yin Yoga uses long-held stretches and increases flexibility. Vinyasa Flow and Ashtanga are faster paced classes for those that wish to build strength and stamina in addition to flexibility. For those needing extra attention due to an injury or health condition, Iyengar Yoga uses props such as chairs, bolsters, and blankets to provide support. As well as its regular classes, Seven Chakras runs special events for clients that extend beyond yoga practices and explore other elements of wellbeing. Clients can participate in Gong Baths, where sound and vibration is used to bathe the body, or a fast-paced Hot Yoga class in a heated room. Slowed Down Sunday is a popular session with Yin Yoga and guided meditation, with Ecstatic Dance and Cacao Ceremonies on the other end of the scale providing clients with a real opportunity to shift and work their energy. The studio’s specialised services are delivered by an exceptional team of professionals. “I couldn’t run the studio without my fantastic team,” Rebecca tells us. “Whether it’s the cleaners, the receptionist, or the teachers and instructors, I like to thank them and acknowledge their hard work and dedication on a daily basis. Whether it’s treating them all to a massage or a simple text message to say thank you. I am very grateful to have such wonderful people working for me. We help each other out and look after each other.” Thanks to its harmonious team and outstanding classes, Seven Chakra has established a reputation as a reputable, expert yoga studio. The studio has been praised for its welcoming atmosphere, beneficial classes, and knowledgeable instructors. “Seven Chakras is such a lovely studio,” says Leanne. “The staff are friendly and helpful as soon as you arrive. Their beginner sessions are great and really suit all abilities. I would recommend Seven Chakras to anyone.” “I had tried practicing yoga before coming to classes at Seven Chakras, but I never really stuck with it,” says Mina. “Since I first attended a class at the studio, however, I’ve found myself practicing it more and more. There’s no great mystery there – Rebecca, her colleagues, and her guests running workshops are all brilliant, each with a personable and vibrant style of their own combined with flawless knowledge and passion.” Contact: Rebecca Gulvin Company: Seven Chakras Limited Web Address: https://www.sevenchakras.com/ As busy as the world is, we all need to carve out some time for relaxation and selfcare.
