About Us

At Om Being, the practice is a doorway into discovering the Self. Our classes invite you to go beyond just a sequence of movements. It’s a space to alchemise awareness, using ancient practices to detoxify the over identified mind and bring us back into balance. Every pose becomes a pathway into a deeper, embodied state of being and every session is an invitation to remember who you are beneath the noise of the mind.

We're not your typical yoga studio, we're more like a connection space where you can tap into sacred practices, community and a deeply rooted sense of belonging, something we feel London desperately needs to smooth out living in this hyper individualistically driven society. We bring the worlds of movement and sound together under the same roof, curating both from the heart and with a sentimental community first approach.

Here some of the key areas we focus on while curating Om Being.

✱ Alchemising awareness
We think of every class as a quiet act of alchemy. You might arrive tense, scattered and caught up in the day. Through movement, breath, sensation, sound and stillness, our teachers guide that awareness inwards, softening its edges, so you leave feeling grounded, less identified with the mind and more yourself. These are potent practices, created to free us from suffering and reconnect us to our innate being. Here, we honour that original intention.

✱ Asana, pranayama and meditation
Each Om Being class combines these three elements in various ways to help you crave a doorway into this deeper state of being , a sanctuary away from the fluctuations of the mind, a place to reconnect to your source Self. Asanas are ancient keys created thousands of years ago to help us unlock who we are at the deepest level. When we move at Om Being it's keeping in mind the origins of these movements which invigorates them with the intention they were created with from the beginning.

✱ Regular practice
To really feel the power of these practices we believe in encouraging regular practice. When we tune into the body everyday, something shifts - we become less identified with the mind and more in touch with the awareness below all the noise. That energy and awareness doesn’t stay on the mat. It flows into our relationships, our work and the world around us and it inspires others to live through an embodied state of awareness too. Regular practice can genuinely transform your life and having an unlimited membership at Om Being with the diversity of classes, give you everything you need to explore the power of practice.

✱ Embodied living
Through regular practice we tap into a more consistent state of embodied living, that deeper intelligence and awareness below the mind, letting it permeate into all aspects of our lives, infusing the world with conscious and compassionate awareness. We can only do that by returning to the mat everyday to activate this awareness every day.

✱ Remembering our humanity
Modern life asks a lot of us. Many of us feel the pressure to carry the weight of our lives alone, moving faster, thinking harder and feeling less. Om Being is a place to put that weight down. When life feels heavy, there’s no better way to re-empower yourself than coming back to the mat, back to the breath and back to the body, again and again.

✱ The currency is connection
We’re a studio built on belonging. Our priority is to reactivate the feeling of being part of a real community: one where people know your name, notice when you’re missing and are glad to see you walk through the door. We want you to feel less like a customer and more like a human being. Carrying the weight of a human life all by ourselves in this hyper individualistic, capitalist society is a big ask. We want to smooth out the edges of living constantly in this way, so feeling part of a real community like Om Being can help you navigate through life with that subtle knowing you're part of something and we're all in it together. Studios are wellsprings for this and we intend to make sure it exists in abundance here at Om Being.

✱ Committed community
Real community can’t form in the name of convenience. Big booking platforms and credit schemes are designed for hopping between studios and booking “when you feel like it”. They trade real connection for bookability and community quietly erodes. We’ve chosen a different path. Om Being runs on unlimited memberships (also packs if you feel you want more flexibility) because community grows when the same people gather in the same space, week after week and commit to the practice and to each other

✱ Movement that inspires your creative practice
What we cultivate in class doesn’t end when the music fades and we spray down the mats. We know the power these practices have to inform other areas of life including our creative practices. If you're an artist, musician, painter, creative and/or hobbist, explore a how a regular movement practice everyday can profoundly inform and inspire your work. Shaping and alchemising our awareness like this everyday can open up channels of creativity, help keep us connected to that intuitive expression and unblock blocks.

✱ Movement and sound curation at the highest level
At Om Being we care about delivering top tier movement and sound curation. Unlike any other space in London, move through class with our hi-fidelity sound system and fully acoustically treated studio, with over 200 mixes curated specifically for each class and live DJ sets every month. Every class is shaped so the music carries you deeper into the practice. Nowhere else in the world brings these two worlds together like we do.

✱ Festival spirit
Festival spirit runs through the heart of Om Being. Every June we gather on a farm in Wales for Sumor, our solstice celebration of movement, electronic music, nature and connection. Find out more here.

✱ Come home to yourself
Everything we do is about helping people remember a world of connection that modern life makes so easy to lose. Come and find your own oasis of peace, tap into these ancient practices and let them illuminate your life once again.
