The space may be used for the following wellbeing-focused purposes, including but not limited to: 

• Movement and mindfulness practices such as yoga, Pilates, meditation, qigong, tai chi, breathwork, and other floor-based or contemplative disciplines. 

• Therapeutic sessions including one-to-one or small-group yoga therapy, physical therapy, bodywork, or similar practices (therapists are required to provide their own treatment tables and equipment). 

• Health and wellbeing gatherings such as small workshops, discussion or writing circles, reflective group sessions, and other events designed to support personal growth and wellbeing. 

• Content creation for wellbeing such as photography, filming, or livestreaming, provided it is connected to health, wellness, or mindful practices. Please note: the building is a shared-use environment and the surrounding street may generate background noise. If you are planning filming or other sound-sensitive activities, we strongly recommend selecting your booking time carefully to ensure suitability.

What is the space not suitable for?

The space is not suitable for parties, alcohol-based events, children’s activities, religious ceremonies, political meetings, retail or pop-up shops, or anything involving food preparation, pets, or overnight activities.

For full details, please see our [Terms & Conditions].

The building does not have step-free access and is not suitable for wheelchair users or those who require lift access. We understand this may be disappointing, and we’re committed to being clear so you can plan with confidence.

Please note the studio is not suitable for babies or children’s activities, and we are therefore unable to accommodate bookings involving children’s classes, play sessions, or family groups. This is due to the layout of the space and the shared-use nature of the building.

If your booking involves teenagers aged 13 to 17, it is your responsibility to ensure that appropriate safeguarding procedures are in place.

Pets (not permitted at any time, except guide dogs or registered assistance dogs).

Use of mats, bricks, blocks, bolsters, blankets, eyepillows and chairs is included (full list available on our website).

All equipment must be wiped down and returned to storage after use.

Please report any damaged or missing items immediately.

You are responsible for setup and tidy-up within your booking time. This includes:

• Cleaning and neatly returning all equipment used.

• Ensuring the studio is left clean and clear for the next user.

• Removing all rubbish and placing in the designated location.

• Checking and tidying the toilet facilities after your session if used by clients.

• Turning off all lights, electrical items, heating/cooling units.

• Locking all windows and doors securely before leaving.

There is no on-site parking available at Oakforest House.

Local paid parking is available nearby:

• Behind Marks & Spencer (short stay)

• Within Haringey Council parking zones.

• Day and hourly rates available via standard parking apps.

All bookings must be requested through our booking request form here.

Access details will be sent to you in advance of your booking.

All hirers are required to join a dedicated WhatsApp group used to confirm:

• Arrival at the studio

• Departure and lock-up

• That the shutter has been lowered and the alarm has been set

This group is for operational purposes only. If you’ve made a one-off booking, you’ll be removed from the group afterwards. Regular hirers will remain in the group until access is no longer needed.

You are responsible for locking the building securely and returning the key to the external key safe.

Standard hire (90-minute sessions):  

Cancellations must be made at least seventy-two (72) hours prior to the scheduled booking in order to receive a refund. Cancellations made less than seventy-two (72) hours in advance are strictly non-refundable.

Cancellations by us:  

We reserve the right to cancel a booking due to unforeseen circumstances. In such cases, a full refund of the hire fee will be issued. This refund is limited strictly to the hire fee and does not extend to any other costs incurred by the hirer. 

External disruptions and force majeure: 

Our Space by Yoga Matters accepts no responsibility for disruptions, cancellations, or losses caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control. These include, but are not limited to, utility failures (such as electricity or water), machinery breakdowns, building defects, fire, flooding, government restrictions, public health measures, or other force majeure events. No refunds will be made in such circumstances, and the hirer agrees to indemnify Our Space against any resulting claims or liabilities.
