This award-winning yoga studio is also a Yoga Alliance Centre of Excellence and was founded by Peckham locals, Sean and Emma Hitzelberger. Its 2014 mission was to bring London’s expert teachers to South East London in a space that is welcoming, inclusive and creative and now, with their second space opened in 2017, they offer a wide range of classes and workshops at affordable prices, every day of the week.
The studios are light, bright and airy with polished wooden floors, large industrial windows and hints of colour. They have a large reception area complete with café serving breakfast, coffee, cold drinks and delicious homemade treats.
From beginners and pregnancy yoga, to dynamic vinyasa, yin, hatha, rocket yoga and mindfulness, there is something for everyone and all abilities are welcome. They also offer online classes live-streamed from their Peckham studio.
Yogarise hosts daily Community Classes which are taught by their Yoga Teacher Training Graduates and are just £5 in-person, £3 online (or whatever is afforded) with a donation from these classes going to charities such as Southwark Foodbank, South London Cares, Choose Love and Project Yogi.
In addition to studio based classes, you will also find Yogarise up on the Bussey Building rooftop from May to September, at Bankside Open Spaces Festival in Southwark this June and at Wilderness Festival in August.
