About Yoga with Lalita (formally Embody Somatic Therapies)
Yoga with Lalita, formerly known as Embody Somatic Therapies, is a Canberra yoga practice led by an experienced teacher with a gentle, unhurried approach. The emphasis is on creating a space where people can authentically belong, with slow-paced classes taught without force or expectation, making the practice welcoming for those who find busier or more athletic studios intimidating.
Classes weave together asana, pranayama, meditation and yoga nidra, offering more than just movement and inviting students into breathwork and deep relaxation. Sessions run in term-based blocks at venues in the inner north and Kingston, supporting a steady, ongoing practice rather than one-off drop-ins. Beyond regular classes, the practice also offers private group sessions, workshops, retreats and somatic psychotherapy.
Rooted in Griffith and serving the wider inner-south and inner-north of Canberra, Yoga with Lalita positions itself as a nurturing, personal alternative for people seeking a calmer, more reflective practice. With multiple practice options and a focus on belonging over performance, it suits anyone wanting to slow down, reconnect with their body and breath, and practise in a supportive, low-pressure environment.
