Yoga includes physical movements and postures, skilled and precise breathing techniques, properly constructed mental concentration and safe and effective relaxation exercises. Each session of Yoga is constructed to contain these elements. Yoga is good for everyone, from the earliest years right through to full maturity and old age. It can be adapted to individual needs.
If you are concerned about whether this is suitable for you, your GP or Practice Nurse are the best people to seek advice from.
The cost is worked out on the basis of 10 weekly sessions. Unfortunately, we have to pay whether attending all the sessions or not in order to meet expenses. Taster sessions are available at £2.50 a week, and are advisable for those people that are not sure it is for them. The current price is £24 for 10 sessions. We usually take a break at Christmas, Easter and during August.
If you want to enjoy it and you want to feel better for doing it, then come and join our friendly class each week – there are a few vacancies available at present.
NB. The only requirement is a Yoga mat that can be purchased quite reasonably. Loose clothing, such as jogging pants and a T-shirt are the most comfortable clothes to wear. Further advice is available by contacting the Coordinator.
