Yoga Leaders in the UK and Europe

We introduced Hot Yoga (Bikram) to the UK in 1994. After the success of our four yoga studios, and years of Michele's observing and teaching over 250,000 students, we launched the new yoga method Fierce Grace in 2013 to industry acclaim. We now have Fierce Grace studios in locations around the world including London, Rome, New York, and Queenstown. Studios opening in Australia and expansion in the US are in the pipeline. We have classes in the esteemed David Lloyd centres, Dublin and dotted around the planet.

A Cutting-Edge System

Beautiful sequences for a beautiful body and mind

Fierce Grace is a revolutionary new yoga style that draws from Ashtanga, Power, classical Hatha yoga, Iyengar and Bikram yoga, and is sequenced in ways that adhere to ancient yogic principles as well as the latest cutting-edge fitness research. Interval Training, strength training and Super-Slow® wisdom have been integrated into the classes for optimum results. Twelve foundation poses are woven throughout the system in various forms like a skeleton to ensure progression and safety. The other 250 poses create variety of movement, awaken dormant muscle, address postural issues and keep us surprised and interested.

Each of the classes has a focus and emphasis. The system allows us to mix and match the classes to our mood and goals, helping us develop mentally and physically by allowing all aspects of ourselves room for expression. Performing all the classes regularly can bring about spectacular results both within and without. The classes you will learn on this course (Fierce Grace and The Fix) are multi-level and multi-style and are suitable for everyone.
