Attending regular yoga classes can sometimes be daunting, especially if your a newbie, so I’ve designed this course to put you at ease.

The emphasis is on safely stretching, strengthening and relaxing through a series of movements, breathing and relaxation techniques.  You'll also learn a brief theory behind the practice so you gain an understanding of the principles and philosophies of yoga.

 This gentle, introductory yoga course is designed for:

• absolute beginners;

• those returning to the practice and wanting to refresh;

• people with conditions which may prevent them joining regular classes;

• anyone who feels unconfident about being in a group class or new environment;

• anyone wanting an understanding of the fundamental and underlying principles of yoga;

• anyone simply wanting a respectful class at a gentle, introductory level;

The course sets the foundational approach to yoga asana (postures) and pranayama (breath) and is suitable for people of all ages , life stages and ALL bodies.

Each week builds on the week before, arriving at a stage where you can feel confident moving into regular Yoga classes or a home practice. ​

What you will learn

• calming and strengthening yoga poses (dynamic stretching/movement);

• basic  Pranayama (yoga breathing methods);

• how to calm your mind and relax your body;

• how to move safely and confidently through a basic yoga sequence;

• what’s happening in the body when we make these shapes;

2020 has pushed us all to extreme limits , and there is no denying its been a year of tests and sacrifice. Maybe this course is just what you have been waiting for, to bring a little calm and meaning into the Rona madness ?
