Founder · Slow Flow & Hatha
Maya Holloway
Trained in London and Mysore, Maya weaves breathwork into every class, so each movement begins on an exhale.
Your teacher
Hello, I’m Maya.
I came to the mat for the stretch and stayed for the breath. Twelve years on, I teach slow, breath-led yoga that meets you exactly where you are: some days strong, some days soft, always unhurried.
RestBreathBodyMind
The Maya approach
Yoga that looks after the whole of you, not just your hamstrings.
Every class begins with the breath, moves gently through the body and settles into stillness, so you leave a little lighter than you arrived.
INHALE
How every class unfolds
- Arrive — shoes off, phone away, a blanket round your shoulders
- Breathe — a few slow rounds to let the day fall away
- Move — gentle shapes, carried along by the breath
- Rest — savasana, always. The bit everyone secretly loves
EXHALE
The team
Meet the teachers
A small circle of teachers who hold the room gently, and who’ll remember your name (and how you take your tea) by your second class.
Yin & Pregnancy Yoga
Priya Shah
A former midwife, Priya teaches Yin and pregnancy yoga with the patience of someone who knows bodies change, and that’s alright.

How it feels
Nothing to prove, nowhere to rush.
No mirrors, no leaderboards, nobody checking how deep your lunge is. Just a warm room, a long exhale and an hour that’s entirely yours.

Questions
Good to know before you come
Can’t see your question here? Send me a note and I’ll reply within a day or so, usually with a cup of tea in hand.
Get in touchI’ve never done yoga before. Where do I start?
Hatha Foundations or Slow Flow are both lovely places to begin. Arrive ten minutes early, let me know it’s your first class, and I’ll keep an eye on you.
What should I bring?
Just yourself and something comfortable to move in. Mats, blocks, bolsters and blankets are all provided, and the kettle is always on.
Do I need to book in advance?
It helps. Classes are capped at twelve, so booking online saves you a mat. If there’s space on the day, you’re very welcome to drop in.
What if I need to cancel?
Cancel up to six hours before class and the credit goes straight back to your account. Life happens; just let us know.
Can I come if I’m pregnant or injured?
Usually, yes. Pregnancy Yoga is open from 14 weeks, and every class has gentler options. Have a quick word with your teacher before you start.
Is there parking nearby?
There’s a pay-and-display car park two minutes away, bike racks by the front door, and Temple Meads is an eight-minute walk.
“There’s no such thing as being bad at breathing. Just arrive, soften, and let each exhale be a little longer than the last.”
