About Vahni

the same flame, held in a new way

the shala has been a home for practice in west norwood for nearly thirty years.

vahni is what it becomes next, shaped by the same values, held by the same community, and carried forward with the same care.

New to the studio

not sure where to begin?

we keep it simple. and we keep the business of yoga well outside the practice space.

  1. the lounge is front-desk and transaction free. book online in advance, then arrive when you're ready.

  2. leave your shoes and coat by the entrance, help yourself to a cup of tea, and take a moment to land.

  3. enter the studio gently and lay your mat down. we advise bringing your own.

  4. once you're on your mat, it's your practice. move at your own pace. rest whenever you need to.

The Shala School of Yoga

sister offerings, from the same roots.

for nearly three decades, gingi and ella have nurtured the shala as a sanctuary for yoga, healing, and community in south london. their work continues through the shala school of yoga, offering teacher training, mentorship, and advanced study.
