Most of the yoga options near Coulsdon are gym classes or big studios where you're one face in a crowd of 25. If that's your thing, fine. But some people want to be actually seen — not just given a mat number and left to get on with it.
I have students who drive over from Coulsdon every week. One of them told me she'd tried three places locally before she found this one. The difference, she said, was that I knew her name by the second class and noticed she was guarding her hip before she'd mentioned it. That's what happens in a room of 10 people instead of 30.
My studio is a purpose-built room at the end of my garden in Wallington. It's warm, quiet, and deliberately small. There's no reception desk, no retail wall, no Spotify playlist. Just proper yoga, proper attention, and a cup of tea afterwards if you want one. It's about five miles from Coulsdon — far enough to leave the day behind, close enough to do on a weeknight.
