Yoga for Every Body

£41.00 for a block of five classes, or £31.00 for any three classes in the block - payable in advance.

Exercises for the body and breath that increase flexibility and strength, and bring calm to the mind.

All postures and breathing practices can be modified to suit individual needs and experience. Yoga is not about contorting the body or forcing the breath, but learning to let go of tensions and restrictions. Through repeated practice the body and breath become stronger and more flexible, and the mind becomes clearer and calmer.

At the start of the class there is a period of quiet focusing followed by limbering and warming the body. This is followed by asana (posture) work with appropriate modifications. Some postures are held for a few breaths, some are practised dynamically and some are linked together as a sequence. There is also an emphasis on how to synchronise breath with movement, and particular breathing techniques to aid movement. A pranayama (breathing) practice follows which helps to refine and strengthen the breath and aids concentration. We finish the class with a meditation and a relaxation.
