Breathwork
A light-filled studio in Marylebone where mindful movement meets quiet luxury. Slow flow, reformer pilates and breathwork — beginners always welcome.
Lumen began with a simple belief: that a studio should feel less like a gym and more like a sanctuary. No mirrors lined with judgement, no pressure to perform — only warm light, honest breath and teachers who meet you exactly where you are.
Whether you have never unrolled a mat or you practise daily, you will find a class here that fits. We keep our groups small, our pace humane, and our space calm — so the only thing you have to do is arrive.
Twelve class styles across yoga, pilates and breath — from restorative stillness to a strong, sweat-building flow.
A breath-led, flowing practice that builds heat and steadiness. Each class is sequenced fresh, never on autopilot.
Low-impact, deeply effective work on our spring-loaded reformers. Build core strength, length and control.
Guided pranayama and conscious breathing to settle the nervous system. Leave lighter than you arrived.
Long, supported holds with bolsters and blankets. Deep rest for tired bodies and busy minds.
Our strongest, most dynamic class. Heat, strength and focus for those who like to be challenged.
Floor-based, meditative stretching that targets the deep connective tissue. Stillness as practice.
A snapshot of our weekly timetable. Full schedule and booking on the Classes page.

"You don't have to touch your toes to belong here. You just have to breathe — the rest unfolds in its own time."
Anouk trained across Rishikesh and London over fifteen years before opening Lumen in 2019. She teaches with a rare blend of precision and warmth — and a deep belief that rest is productive.
"I came in as a complete beginner, terrified. Six months later it's the calmest hour of my week. The teachers genuinely care."
"The reformer classes transformed my back pain. Small groups mean Priya actually corrects your form. Worth every penny."
"Lumen doesn't feel like a studio, it feels like exhaling. The light, the candles, the breathwork — I leave a different person."
Thoughts on breath, rest, movement and the gentle art of beginning again.
