Humming Puppy
WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT
Welcome to Humming Puppy, a yoga experience evolved from traditional practices in a stunning space that resonates with a perfect hum. Humming Puppy is a journey that begins the moment you leave the outside world and step inside our studio.
We draw our inspiration from the lineages from which we have practiced and learnt. This gives our students a unified and holistic practice that reflects the literal Sanskrit translation of the word yoga, “union”. We base our teachings on the principles of breath-pranayama, movement-asana and awareness-meditation. These principles are the foundation of our 4 class styles in which we welcome beginners through to the most experienced yogi. Our classes are typically ‘warm’, conducted in a climate controlled environment of no more than 27 degrees.
WHAT KIND OF YOGA IS IT?
We don't prescribe to any specific style but rather draw our inspiration from all of the lineages from which we have practiced and learnt. We believe this gives our students a unified and holistic practice. We base our teachings on the principles of breath-pranayama, movement-asana and awareness-meditation. These principles are the foundation of our 4 class styles.
We encourage our teachers to be themselves, find their own voice and structure classes in a way that reflects their personality. Our teachers are asked to be present for their students and create a space where you will always feel comfortable.
MELLOW HUM
A mellow hum is a low intensity class designed for all levels of students from beginners to advanced practitioners. Classes may include gentle flows and yin style postures. If a more chilled class resonates with you then our mellow hum will give you the time and space to reflect and peace out.
UNIFIED HUM
A unified hum is a medium intensity class designed for all levels of students from beginners to advanced practitioners. Classes combine both elements of a dynamic and restorative practice while maintaining a balanced approach throughout.
DYNAMIC HUM
A dynamic hum is a high intensity class designed for all levels of students from beginners to advanced practitioners. If you want to challenge and develop your yoga practice with deeper stretches, Vinyasa flows, longer holds and advanced postures then a dynamic hum will get you humming.
DEEPEN YOUR HUM
Deepen your hum is medium to high intensity class that is designed for all levels of students from beginners to advanced practitioners. These are workshop style classes focused on an element of yoga allowing for interaction and engagement between the teacher and students. Designed for students that want to have a play and deepen their practice.
THE HUM IN HUMMING PUPPY
When taking a class at Humming Puppy, one of the first things you will notice is that the room quite literally 'Hum's'... and this is by no means an accident! Our yoga space or ‘shala’, engineered by ARUP (one of the worlds leading acoustic engineers), is injected with a combination of frequencies to enhance and deepen your experience. More specifically we use a combination of 7.83hz and 40hz. Being submersed in these frequencies helps you to naturally produce matching frequencies through a process of entrainment. 7.83hz otherwise known as the Schumann Resonance is actually the frequency of the earth itself and helps to 'ground' you through your practice. 40hz is specifically associated with ‘Gamma’ brainwave activity, integral for achieving states of peak performance. Elite athletes, top-notch musicians and high achievers in all fields, typically produce far more gamma waves than average.
And whilst all of that sounds quite serious and complicated, on a much simpler level the hum just feels good!
Both our hum and our music was composed and designed by Mitch Allen from OneTwoStudios. Mitch and his team designed a natural hum sound from a recording of our own singing bowls that they later de-tuned to resonate at 40hz. He also composed a suite of long form soundscapes to accompany each of our three class styles that work harmoniously with our hum.
YOGA WITH PERSONAL SPACE
We’re pretty sure yoga is meant to be practiced by humans and not tiny fish… so we won’t cram you in like a tin of sardines. At Humming Puppy all our classes are limited to only 39 places with an even and luxurious amount of room between each mat, so you can focus on your practice and not on another student’s behind!
WHERE TO START?
You can start your Humming Puppy journey simply by signing up and registering on our website www.hummingpuppy.com. After you’ve purchased your classes you’re ready to book a specific class and select your mat. That’s right, we know students have their favourite spot - be it up the front, down the back or cosy in the corner - so at Humming Puppy you’re able to reserve the specific mat you want so you can simply turn up knowing you’ll be exactly where you desire!
ARRIVE AS LIGHT AS POSSIBLE, LEAVE EVEN LIGHTER
We want you to travel light - emotionally and physically - so we provide all students with mats by Manduka - considered the best in the business! They are closed cell, contain no latex and we meticulously clean and sanitise them for you before each and every class. We also set up your reserved mat with blocks and straps, so when we say travel light, we mean it.
We pride ourselves on attention to detail and we aim to provide everything needed to make Humming Puppy the perfect yoga experience each and every time you join us. We hope to see you here soon!
