A word of warning
Finding the right yoga class can be as difficult as buying a washing machine. Once you start to look, you discover hundreds of brands. Yet all you really want is a machine that washes clothes. It's the same with yoga. You can become overwhelmed by the number of 'brands'.
If a doctor advises you to attend a class, please do a little research beforehand. You might end up in a hard-core class which is really only suitable for strong, young bodies. Click here for a brief description of the different 'brands' of yoga.
My own classes tend to take place mostly on the mat. They are quite flowing and slow. I like to focus on the spine - strengthening it and making it more supple. I also make sure there is adequate relaxation. Yoga is restorative. A class should build and strengthen your energy, not deplete it.

Yoga in the work place
If you would like me to run a class at your work or in a suitable venue, please get in touch. Or ask your HR wellbeing person to get in touch.

If you are interested in a one-to-one or would like to have a small class (or a breathing and relaxation session) in your own home for yourself and a few friends, please get in touch using the contact form.
