what can you expect?

We will start by settling into the class and then some gentle movement where we build from the floor, into some more challenging standing movements before coming back down to the floor,  we will be working on strengthening the mind body connection and the importance of breath. Most of us will experience mental health challenges throughout our life and being able to understand and acknowledge our bodies responses can be beneficial to help us become more mindful and develop skills to help us handle stress in a way less harmful to ourselves, we spend so much time thinking and in our head, yoga classes can be a great way to encourage the mind to take a back seat. 

What's in store for the main asana (posture) section of our practice? The main section is predominantly standing but we will move from standing to the floor and back again challenging our balance as we go. 

We will bring the class to a close in a tradition way, with some relaxation in śavāsana (corpse pose).

The focus will be exploring movement, the classes will be at a steady pace to enable us to work through the physical (asana) practice and discover how to move best for you. As we progress through the weeks we will add in new elements to develop our practice and get an opportunity to explore a little deeper. 

You know your body better than anyone else and I am there to help you strengthen your yoga practice. There will be props available and encouragement to use them as we explore the physical (asana) aspect of yoga.
