A year on from the Grand Opening, and we're just getting started. Here's what July brings.

---

One year ago this July, we held the grand opening of LoveYour.Studio.

Since then, we've quietly gone about building something Farnborough hasn't had before — and this month, it all opens.

This is what July brings:

• Samata Bar — our café — opens Saturday 18 July

• The workspace opens 

• The rental rooms are ready for therapists, counsellors, body workers, and teachers to base their practice here

• Earlier morning classes from 6:30am — because we're changed the lock on the back door and can now open the studio at dawn

• Three teacher training courses open for enrolment — Foundation 200h, Yogic Breath & Yogic Mindfulness 100h, and Integrative 500h

• A choir concert with the Loveday Singers on Tuesday 7 July to celebrate the year

And that's just July.

What we're actually building

People might not notice or know but LoveYour.Studio is a £250,000 redevelopment project in the centre of Farnborough all funded from my personal savings, loans and naughty credit cards - please never do that at home!

We are not just a yoga studio squeezed into a shop unit. We are a purpose-built space bringing people back into the town centre.

This year we've become far more than yoga:

• Home to Silent Storm, the leading UK charity for men's mental health — free weekly mental health support classes, meetings, and community every Tuesday evening

• A base for Ayurveda practitioners offering consultations and treatments

• A venue for sound baths, kirtans, cultural events, and residencies

• A café opening this month that will nourish the town, not just our students

• A workspace and meeting rooms for the artists and creatives, freelancers and small businesses of Farnborough

• Rental rooms for therapists, counsellors, and body workers to start and grow their practices

• A teacher training school preparing the next generation of yoga teachers

We are helping revamp Farnborough's town centre. We are giving people a reason to come back.

Farnborough — you should be proud

You have a studio that holds its own with anywhere in the country. You have a hub concerned with your wellbeing, being physical, emotional and mental  - sure we do not have a spa but that is luxury, not dedication or concern for you - that most towns twice this size would envy. You built it with us, one class at a time.

More classes — soon from 6:30am

As you know Kingsmead open at 7am. For us who love a morning sun salutation, this can make it tight to organise our day. With this in mind, we are changing the lock on the back door. That means we can now open the studio at dawn.

Coming in July:

• Tuesday & Thursday · 7:45am · Mindful Movement — Kriyā I — a gentle-to-moderate cleansing morning practice

• Tuesday & Thursday · 6:30am · Tāpas warm practice — arriving towards the end of July. A dawn practice in the warm room. Details soon.

• Wednesday 10:30am · Loma-Viloma — core (and energy) activation, a traditional named practice

• TBD · Hathenas — Lung Expansion Practice — the signature Yogic Breath Course sequence, open to the public - details soon 

• Sunday 5:00pm · Yogic Mindfulness — a Sunday evening reset, taught on a rotational basis by our wonderful Teacher Training Course teachers

Householder Hours — £5 classes launching this month

We've heard you — accessible yoga matters.

From this month, our quieter daytime slots become Householder Hours — a practice for the parent, the carer, the freelancer, the retiree. For anyone whose life is at home in the middle of the day.

• Monday to Friday · 10:30am, 12pm, 1:15pm, 2:30pm, 3:45pm

• Saturday 6:15pm

• Coming: Sunday 5:00pm

£5 per class as we launch — for the next three months. This is our average class price for our Dedicated membership. After October we'll review.

This is our community support programme. If someone in your life has been wanting to try yoga but has been holding back on cost — send them our way.

& Sponsored classes — free or nearly free with registration

We are honoured to work with partners who believe in what this studio does:

• Silent Storm · Tuesdays 5:15pm · Mental Health Class — completely free. Sponsored by Silent Storm, the leading UK charity for men's mental health.

One year in. Just getting started.

A year ago, we held our grand opening.

Yoga teaches patience. Yoga teaches steadiness. A studio built with patience is a studio that lasts — and we've spent this year building it properly. Room by room. Class by class. Practitioner by practitioner.

Now the shape is emerging.

A café. A workspace. Rental rooms. Free mental health classes. Ayurveda. Sound baths. Kirtans. Teacher trainings. Earlier mornings. £5 accessible classes. Cultural events. Community.

A £250,000 project bringing people back to the centre of Farnborough.

We built this because we believed this town deserved more than shops that close at 5pm or more than noisy coffee shops with the same sandwiches and brownies.

We believed people needed a place to come home to themselves — body, mind, and spirit.

We chose the harder path. 

You proved us right.

Wait for the rest.

With deep gratitude,

Marcio LoveYour.Studio hello@loveyour.studio
