What can you expect in a yoga class?
My classes are based on Hatha Yoga, which involves working with asana (postures), the breath and deep relaxation, to build a stronger and more supple body and a calmer, more peaceful mind. By working with the physical body - either energetically, or more gently if you prefer, you will feel more confident and content, as well as getting fitter! Yoga can suit any level of fitness. You will be encouraged to follow the yoga principles of practising with mindfulness - be guided by your breath and your instincts, not ego or competition.

Your tutor....
I have trained with the British Wheel of Yoga for over three years in physiology and anatomy, philosophy, pranayama, asana, relaxation and meditation. I have a first aid certificate and am fully insured. Contracts include work for Swindon Family Learning, The WEA and The Commonweal School. Recent workshops for International Women's Day and Fun Summer Yoga for Children have been rewarding. I am currently putting together a BWY Summer School in Old Town for 2008 - keep an eye out for details!

What will you need?
You will need to bring a yoga mat, a cushion or block and wear warm layers of loose, comfortable clothing. I am happy to lend mats. You may like to bring a blanket for Deep Relaxation.

General Information
Please arrive in good time for each class, so that we may start promptly. If you would like to discuss any part of your practice or any medical issues I will be available 15 minutes before the start of each class, and am happy to continue any discussions afterwards. Try not to miss any classes, as you will benefit more from completing a whole course.
Please note that unfortunately I cannot refund fees for missed classes.

I will ask you to fill out a confidential medical questionnaire, so that I can tailor posture work to your needs and help you practise safely. It is recommended that you seek the advice of your doctor before embarking on any new exercise routine.

I look forward to practising yoga with you!
