Oriental Yoga offers traditional Hatha yoga classes across Liverpool and Southport, led by Simon Rowe, a Senior Yoga Teacher recognised by both the Yoga Alliance Professionals and the Independent Yoga Network. With over 26 years of teaching experience and training in Varkala, Kerala, Simon specialises in authentic yogic practices rather than contemporary fitness-focused approaches.
The business serves people seeking genuine health benefits through yoga, from general fitness enthusiasts to intermediate practitioners. Classes incorporate dynamic sun salutations, pranayama breathing exercises, deep stretching routines, joint mobility work, inversions, spinal conditioning, and guided meditation. Simon uniquely integrates Chinese Qi Gong and Japanese Makkho stretches alongside traditional yoga to enhance healing and flexibility.
What sets Oriental Yoga apart is its commitment to traditional methodology over commercialised standardisation. Simon's affiliation with the Independent Yoga Network—which prioritises preserving authentic yoga's diversity against diluted regulation—reflects this philosophy. Rather than drop-in sessions, classes operate as rolling monthly courses, enabling proper progression and safe instruction tailored to individual capabilities.
The studio addresses common concerns including general aches, stiffness, poor mobility and mental stress. Regular attendance builds core strength, improves breathing capacity, increases flexibility and balance, while calming the mind and enhancing overall wellbeing. Classes suit those recovering from injury or beginning their yoga journey through to experienced practitioners seeking deeper practice in an authentic setting.
