Movement for Life
Yoga & Pilates at Essence Wellness

Movement isn’t about performance.
It’s about living well for life.

Move confidently through everyday life

At Essence Wellness, our exercise classes are designed around mobility, strength, and functional movement, the things that allow you to move confidently through everyday life as you age.

  • Getting up and down stairs.
  • Carrying shopping.
  • Reaching, bending, lifting, balancing.

These are the movements that matter and they’re the ones we train.

Whether you’re starting young and building strong foundations, or beginning later in life and reclaiming confidence in your body, our classes meet you exactly where you are.

Why Mobility Matters

Mobility is one of the most powerful tools we have for long-term health and independence.

  • It reduces injury risk
  • Supports joint and spinal health
  • Improves balance and coordination
  • Builds strength without impact
  • Protects independence as we age

You are never too young to build good habits and you are never too old to improve your mobility.

Consistency, not intensity, is what creates lasting change.

Our Approach to Movement

Our classes are:

  • Low-impact and joint-friendly
  • Focused on strength, control and range of motion
  • Suitable for beginners and experienced movers
  • Designed to build confidence, not exhaustion
  • Rooted in longevity and prevention

This is movement that supports your nervous system, your joints, and your day to day life not just a workout.

Gravity Yoga

Deep release, mobility and nervous system regulation

Gravity Yoga is inspired by Yin Yoga a slow, meditative practice that works deeply into connective tissues, joints and fascia.

Postures are:

  • Held for longer periods
  • Supported with props
  • Focused on relaxation rather than effort

Benefits include:

  • Improved flexibility and joint mobility
  • Reduced tension and stiffness
  • Nervous system calming
  • Enhanced recovery and body awareness

This class is perfect if you feel tight, stressed, overworked, or simply want to move more gently while still creating real physical change.

Pilates

Our movement classes are suitable for:

  • Complete beginners
  • Busy professionals
  • People with stiffness or reduced mobility
  • Those focused on long-term health and prevention
  • Anyone wanting to move better, not harder

You don’t need to be flexible.

You don’t need to be strong.

You just need to start.

Movement as Prevention

We believe movement is medicine especially when done consistently and with intention.

Our classes support:

  • Healthy ageing
  • Injury prevention
  • Bone and joint health
  • Confidence in movement

This isn’t about pushing through pain.

It’s about building a body that supports your life.
