our students are saying...
“After my first few classes I was totally hooked. This is something different.”
I have to admit I have never really enjoyed exercise, although I’ve done plenty of fitness and yoga classes over the years. I was laughing in class! Unlike other yoga classes where I followed a sequence, here I was taught. I was taught how to structure a pose, how to push myself, how to control the breath and steady the mind — techniques that really help in day-to-day life. I feel so lucky to have found Yoga One — the expert teaching has increased my fitness, focus, ability to relax and strength, both physically and mentally.

"Each year I’ve seen progress in my flexibility, strength and self-awareness."
I’ve been practicing yoga with Thomas for five years now, having started as a beginner. Each year I’ve seen steady progress in my flexibility, my strength and my self-awareness. I can say with no doubt that this has been the result of Thomas’s teaching. His wisdom and encouragement are a great motivation, pointing the way to your own path. The studio space is wonderful too. I cannot recommend Yoga One highly enough!
Steve Davies
“I thoroughly enjoy attending Thomas Franklin’s school of Iyengar yoga.”
I’ve been going to YogaOne in Penarth for some years now. Having been to various classes over the years and never come across a class so small, which inevitably creates a great community feel. Along with a more hands on approach and personal instructions given, I’ve noticed my yoga improve substantially and advice with home practice, I’m enjoying yoga at home too.

Finding Comfort in Discomfort: A Yogic perspective
“The pain we experience in asana can reflect the state of our nervous system, just as our nervous system can reflect the state of our mind. The tension we feel in the body is often a reflection of the tension we hold in the mind.” In B.K.S. Iyengar’s book Light on Life, he discusses the pain that arises during practice and how to deal with it. Iyengar states: “Learn to find comfort even in discomfort.” Two questions arise from this statement: How does one go about finding comfort when...
Yoga and Its Origins
The word Yoga is derived from the sanskrit word “yuj” which means to bind, yoke, join and or unite. A coming together so to speak. It refers to the coming together of the individual self with that of the universal Self, or the individual consciousness with universal consciousness. Yoga originated in India but there is some debate as to when it originated, stone tablets depicting yoga asana have been found dating back some 3500 - 5000 years old with some believing it to be as old as 15000...
