Course Description

This course is for yoga beginners and those who want a gentler yoga class. Come along and stretch in a friendly class. We will rest and breathe deeply, warm up the body then move into classic yoga poses and sequences to strengthen and open the body. You will learn the shapes and alignment within the poses. The session ends with a short relaxation.

Yoga improves posture and promotes easier movement. You also build more self-knowledge as you work with your body. Yoga keeps the spine flexible, the hips open, and the muscles long and strong. It also helps to calm and de-stress the mind. Hatha Yoga is taught in this class.

Postures can be modified to suit individual needs. Learners can always ask the tutor if they have any concerns. If necessary, please speak to your GP before embarking on a new exercise programme. It is advisable that anyone with serious injuries consults their GP or physiotherapist.
