Why Phoenix

Three simple reasons to choose Phoenix.

Yoga for every body

Classes include options for beginners and experienced students. Teachers explain each movement and offer alternatives where needed.

Well-being, in and out

Through movement, breath, and stillness, we help you find calm amid the pace of London life — and carry it long after you leave the mat.

Shaped by our community

Our schedule, events, and classes are all shaped by your feedback. When you step inside Phoenix, you're part of what makes this place what it is.

New to yoga?

You do not need to be flexible, fit or confident before you begin.

Most people feel nervous before their first class. Our teachers will show you where to go, offer options throughout and make it clear that resting is always allowed.

Your only job is to arrive. We’ll help with everything else.

What makes us different

We're not just community-focused.
We're community-owned.

In 2023, The House of Yoga closed. Instead of walking away, teachers and students rebuilt the space together and opened Phoenix as a member-owned studio. Surplus is reinvested in teaching, the studio and local access projects. Read the full Phoenix story →

Community & Ownership

Why We Became Community-Owned

Not a franchise. Not an investor’s portfolio. Not a brand. Here’s what community ownership actually means in practice.

Studio Story

The Flood, the Fundraiser, and the People Who Showed Up

What happens when the ground shifts beneath you — sometimes literally. And what it tells you about the people around you.

Meet the Founder

He Found Yoga by Accident. Never Planned to Run a Studio.

Ray was on gardening leave and looking for a hobby that didn’t involve Lycra. Here’s what actually happened.

Common questions

Everything you need to know before you come in.

I've never done yoga before — is Phoenix the right place to start? +

Absolutely. All of our classes are open to every level and our teachers are skilled at making complete beginners feel at ease from the first minute. If you want the most beginner-friendly start, our Gentle Flow or Fundamentals classes are designed exactly for you — but honestly, any class on the timetable will work. Just let your teacher know before class that it's your first time, and they'll take care of you.

What do I need to bring to my first class? +

Just yourself and comfortable clothes you can move in. We provide mats and all the props you'll need. Bring a water bottle if you like. Leave your shoes at the door and your phone in the cubby holes inside the studio. If you want to use the showers after class, bring your own towel.

How does the 21-day intro offer work? +

You pay £50 once, and for 21 days you can attend as many classes as you like across our full timetable. After 21 days, nothing happens automatically — you simply choose which membership or class pack works for you, if any. There's no contract, no auto-renewal, and no hard sell. We'd rather you find the right fit than feel pressured into anything.

What makes Phoenix different from other yoga studios in Putney? +

Two things, mainly. First, the space — people genuinely stop in the doorway when they walk in for the first time. High ceilings, floods of natural light, and a calm that you don't expect a few steps off Upper Richmond Road. Second, the community — Phoenix is owned by the teachers and members who use it. We commit 25% of any surplus to the studio and local initiatives. That's how community ownership works here.

I'm not very flexible — will I keep up? +

Flexibility is not a prerequisite for yoga — it's a result of it. Our teachers always offer modifications and alternatives in every class, so whatever your starting point, you'll find something that works for your body. Nobody in our studio will judge you for where you're at. That's not who we are.

Where can I find yoga near me in Putney? +

Phoenix Yoga is at 230 Upper Richmond Road, Putney, SW15 6TG — a short walk from Putney Bridge tube (District line) and East Putney station. We offer yoga classes in SW15 seven days a week, for all levels.
