Yoga, Pilates and Wellbeing
It’s time to fall in love with taking care of your body, mind & soul
Sass Studio is a safe, welcoming and down-to-earth space where you can explore yoga, Pilates, movement and wellness — whatever your age, ability or life experience.
Our aim is simple: to bring the benefits of movement and mindful living into real, everyday lives. We’re here to help you feel stronger, move better, and find a calmer, happier mind — support that goes far beyond the studio walls.
Whether you’re curious about yoga philosophy or prefer practical, movement-based classes, you’ll find something on our timetable for every body — and everybody. Alongside weekly classes, we also offer short courses, workshops, retreats, workplace wellbeing sessions and bespoke group or 1:1 classes, so there are lots of ways to get involved.
Our teachers are passionate, down-to-earth and genuinely great company — which makes showing up, learning and coming back something to look forward to. And whether it’s your first class or your thousandth, you’ll find a community that’s accepting, authentic and kind.
Here, ego is left at the door. We show up as humans — imperfect, evolving and real — carrying whatever life hands us. In doing so, we create a space where everyone belongs. Come exactly as you are, and know you’ll be welcomed, held and embraced as part of the family.
Scroll down to explore our classes and see what’s on this week. We’d love to move with you.
“Strengthen your body, soothe your mind, elevate your energy.”

Monday
9.30-10.30am | Monday Morning Movement | Kate/Katy
Start your week with a class designed to help you move well, breathe deeply, and build strength and resilience—both physically and mentally. Taught on alternate weeks by Kate and Katy, this class blends intelligent, science-backed movement with breathwork and meditation to support your body and mind.
Kate’s Movement for Life approach focuses on strength, flexibility, and joint health, while Katy’s Embodied Yoga emphasises mindful, flowing movement and breath connection. Both styles encourage ease, balance, and vitality in a supportive space.
No experience needed—just movement that feels good and sets you up for the week ahead.
6-7pm | Pilates for Life | Kate/Leanne
Slow doesn’t mean easy. It means powerful.
Taught on alternate weeks by Kate and Leanne, Pilates for Life is a deeply nourishing practice designed to build strength, control, and vitality—at a pace your body can truly absorb.
In Pilates, slow is strong. Why? Because moving slowly challenges your stability, enhances neuromuscular control, and helps build lasting strength from the inside out. It’s how we cultivate precision, reduce injury risk, and make lasting changes to posture and mobility.
With every controlled breath, every deliberate hold, you’re not just working out—you’re reprogramming your body for longevity, resilience, and radical self-respect.
Whether you're 18 or 80 - this is the Pilates you should be practising. Suitable for all levels.
7.30-8.45pm | Embodied Yoga Woman | Katy
This women-only embodied movement class is a space for all women — however you identify within womanhood — to come as you are. We’ll show up for ourselves and each other with kindness, encouragement, and the freedom to rest whenever it’s needed. Think of it as a circle of quiet cheerleaders, here to support one another through movement, breath, and stillness. Pregnant women are warmly welcomed and the 6-week, post-birth check up.
Expect a blend of breath-led flow, joint freedom, strength-building, balance exploration, and spaciousness through the spine and torso — all supporting a more balanced nervous system. You'll be guided in ways that invite calm, steadiness, and a deeper sense of safety in your body.
This 75-minute extended class is a chance to slow down, recharge, and reconnect — in a warm and welcoming space held for women, by women.

7.30-8.30pm | Yin Bliss | Louise
Slow down, release tension, and find deep inner calm with Yin Yoga. This meditative, floor-based class is the perfect antidote to the stresses of daily life, offering you a chance to reset your mind and body. Not only does Yin Yoga support the physical body, but it also promotes mindfulness and emotional balance. By holding the poses and turning inward, you’ll cultivate stillness, patience, and a greater awareness of your body and mind.

STRONG BASE - Movement for Men
This is the work most men avoid — but it’s exactly what keeps you strong, mobile, and in the game for the long run. Forget the fluff. This class strips it back to what actually matters: strength, mobility, breath, and control.
No nonsense. No chanting. No ego. Just smart, functional movement designed to bulletproof your body and sharpen your focus. You’ll sweat, you’ll be challenged, and you’ll realise how much more you’re capable of when you actually train the parts most men neglect.
Led by Kate — who brings the fire of yoga, the precision of Pilates, the science of functional range conditioning, and the grit of real-world coaching. She’ll push you in the right ways, call you out when you’re coasting, and get you working smarter, not just harder.
This isn’t about looking good in the mirror (though that might happen). It’s about building a body that lasts — so you can run, lift, ride, climb, and live without breaking down. It’s about taking ownership of your health, your strength, and your headspace.
Show up. Do the work. Walk out stronger.

Strong Base: Men’s MOvember Movement Series
This 4-week men’s-only series is about building mobility, resilience and mental clarity, so you can keep moving well for life.
Each 75-minute session blends practices that most men either avoid or have never been shown how to do properly — but they’re the ones that make the biggest difference. Over the course of the four weeks, you'll dip your toes into: Yoga (various styles), Pilates, Functional Range Conditioning (FRC), Breathwork + Stillness.
Book all 4 weeks for the full experience and walk away with a complete toolkit for body and mind; or drop in to individual weeks if life gets in the way. Each session stands alone, so you won’t feel behind if you can’t commit to them all.
20% of all proceeds will be donated to MOvember charities, supporting men’s mental health and male-specific health causes. So whilst helping yourself, you can support other men too.
Led by Kate: Master Flexibility Trainer, Trauma-informed Yoga & Pilates Teacher, Level 4 Personal Trainer and Functional Range Conditioning Coach, you won’t find a more in-depth course at such an amazing cost anywhere else.

FAQs

Yes! In fact you are a perfect candidate! Many people think that they need to be flexible to begin yoga, but that’s a little bit like thinking you need to be able to play piano in order to take piano lessons. Come as you are and you will find that a class will help you become more flexible. This newfound agility will be balanced by strength, coordination as well as a sense of physical confidence and overall wellbeing.

We recommend you choose a class that excites you and fits in with your schedule, then just come and give it a go! All of our teachers are super-welcoming and will encourage you to move at your own pace whilst listening to your body. If, at any point you wish to take a break or pause - do it! It’s your class and we want you to get the most out of it.
We also host 4-6 week ‘beginners courses,’ specifically aimed at those people who have never stepped on a mat before. Keep your eyes peeled on our workshops page for more information.

-
Just bring yourself, in appropriate clothing (see below), and maybe a small bottle of water. If you like to use your own mat and props, feel free to bring them too but we have plenty available.
-
Some people wear baggy, loose fitting bottoms or shorts and a t shirt. Other people wear tight, stretchy leggings + a top. The only thing that matters is that you wear comfortable clothes that you can easily move and stretch in. It's good to have clothes that keep you cool when you are active in yoga, but bring a jumper for relaxation, when the body rapidly cools down. Some people also bring socks and maybe even a blanket for relaxation.
-
Ideally, please arrive a few minutes before the class starts to settle in and prepare. We understand things happen, and sometimes people are late; quietly enter the class so as not to disturb others.
If the coffee house is not open when a class is taking place, it’s highly likely the front door will be locked and access at this time will be unavailable.
The front door is locked a couple of minutes before a class begins promptly so please leave plenty of time to get here, park and roll out your mat.
If you miss a class due to lateness, no refund will be given.
-
When it comes to food and digestion, everyone is different and so there’s no straight answer for this. In general, it’s not recommend eating a large meal within 2 hours of the class start time - if you must eat within 2 hours, then a light meal or snack that is easily digested is best. It’s recommended to be hydrated before a class so drink some water.
-
Congratulations! If you are new to yoga your only option is to attend our pregnancy yoga courses/workshops; start dates vary for the courses so, please check the class schedule for upcoming sessions.
If you are a seasoned Yogi, or have done Yoga previously whilst pregnant, please speak to the relevant teacher before booking on to other weekly classes on the timetable.
