Yoga classes
I teach both online using Zoom, and in the studio with limited numbers set by the venues to meet current Covid requirements. I teach in a relatively gentle 'hatha' style to suit all ages and levels of fitness, and welcome beginners. If y0u have specific health issues, or would like individual classes tailored to suit you, I can offer one to one Yoga Therapy sessions, either in person or via Zoom.
The next term of seven classes runs from Monday 2nd November until Thursday 24 December 2020
ALL CLASSES NOW ONLINE on Zoom DUE TO CURRENT LOCK DOWN
Beginners If you are a complete beginner or haven't done much recently, and like to try a Zoom class just get in touch. I will then arrange a chat on the phone and/or a one to one tutorial to get you started. I personally find Zoom a good alternative to studio classes. Read more about yoga here.

How to keep your sacrum happy
The sacrum is located at the base of your spine and consists of five vertebrae that are fused together to form a bone about the size of a hand. It fits snuggly between the two sides of your pelvis and is connected to them via the sacroiliac joints....

A hip opening sequence
The hip is a ball and socket joint, allowing us to move the leg freely in all directions. It needs to do many things, keeping the body stable and strong when walking and running, at the same time being flexible enough to allow us to sit down on the floor...

How pigeon pose helped my hip pain
For a couple of months, I’d been mildly troubled by a low level ache in my left hip that only comes on at night. Even six weeks in the heat of India recently didn’t seem to make the difference I’d hoped. When I came home to this winter’s freezing temperatures,...
