The yoga class for trans, non-binary and cis dykes that you’ve just realised you have always wanted to attend!
Let’s get together in Nunhead to make some shapes, observe our breath and be together in community.
Classes are held on the third Friday of every month.
Who can come along to these classes?
The only physical requirement for this class is to be able to get from seated to standing up either without use of any additional supports or with the support of yoga blocks.
All levels of practice are welcome here, including beginners. If you are a beginner, try to get to the session with enough time to have a chat with Vic before the class starts.
Gender and sexuality will not be policed in this class. If ‘dyke’ is a term that you resonate with to any degree, and you would like to be in this yoga class, then you are welcome here.
Any student making another uncomfortable will be asked to leave.
As with any yoga class, all students will be required to sign a waiver confirming they are fit to practice yoga, understand that there is an injury risk to practicing and that they agree to be respectful of the space before they can join the class.
How much does it cost?
This class is offered on a sliding scale with three options: £7.50 , £10, £12.50.
£7.50: this is a reduced rate ticket, for anyone that a higher price would be a disproportionate financial burden.
£10: this is a standard rate ticket.
£12.50: this is a pay-it-forward rate, that makes the reduced ticket possible.
The cost of the ticket helps to cover room hire, promotional materials (e.g. flyers) and wider expenses (e.g. insurance) to keep it as a sustainable activity.
Vic is still getting to grips with what it means to price a yoga class and will be reviewing this scale. They are very happy to receive feedback about what is and isn't working.
What should I expect?
This yoga class will feature seated, standing and lying down postures. At some points we will move more quickly, and at others more slowly. Expect some pranayama (breathwork), meditation practice and chat about philosophy. All classes will end with a few moments of savasana (relaxation).
At the end of the class, for anyone that would like to join there is the chance to go to the Old Nun’s Head next door for some more social connection.
What do I need to bring?
- Clothes that you are comfortable to move in
- An extra layer to put on for savasana (e.g. a jumper, socks)
- Water
- If you have your own yoga mat that you would like to practice with, then bring it along! Yoga mats will be provided for those without them.
Who is Vic?
Vic (they/them) is a yoga teacher and meditation facilitator, who is committed to creating inclusive, reflective and playful classes. As a child and teenager, they were taught to prize academic success and intellectual pursuits above all else. Yoga was the antidote: a space to slow down, take the pressure off and remember that they are a body as well as a mind.
After volunteering as a meditation facilitator at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre since 2022, they completed their 200 hours Vinyasa training with Katarina Rayburn and Helen Russell-Clark in 2025 at the Kindred School of Yoga.
Their philosophy of movement is as influenced by their time on the mat and meditation cushion as it by nights on the queer dancefloor. As a non-binary lesbian, Victoria knows first-hand that the yoga world does not always feel comfortable. They prioritise teaching for students who may feel nervous about stepping into the studio. Their classes offer space to encounter yourself where you are.
