An opportunity to spend an hour in a quiet space where we’ll learn the art of relaxation through gentle movement and mobility-focused poses (asana) to improve posture and decrease stress.
Yoga classes for beginners are held at the community interest company Open Space Studios (nr Oswestry library). With 2 large studios, and plenty of space to read, dance, craft and relax, it’s the perfect space to look after your mental health.
Yoga has always been more than just exercise. It’s said that yoga movements were used to exhaust the body to prepare the mind for meditation. Equally, yoga can be used as a physical exercise alone. However, many benefit particularly mentally from incorporating the other principles of this ancient tradition to help you find your daily calm, strength and joy on and off the mat.
Join me and my support labrador at 1.30 pm for an hour’s gentle flow to stretch your mind and body and ultimately leave feeling motivated for the week ahead!
Each class is £5pp and includes yoga mats, blocks and blankets but you are welcome to bring your own.
Are you completely new to yoga and would like to come to class but feel as though you need to learn the basics? Perhaps you feel too self-conscious to practice in front of others?
1-2-1 yoga classes are available or why not bring a friend? These sessions can be used however you like and tailored to your specific health needs.
Dive deeper into mindfulness and learn how to use it on and off the mat at 1.15pm (£3.50).
Bringing all the cosy and chilled vibes at 1.45 pm (£5) for a restful inspired slow yoga practice.
Variety is the spice of life. There’s so much value and learning in practicing yoga with all ages, shapes, sizes, levels and abilities all together in a loving, accepting and mindful way.
If you’d like to sleep better, soothe anxiety, increase concentration and lower stress then Nidra is a form of meditation that requires you to carefully listen to a specific set of instructions that allow your brain waves to mellow and your entire body to rest. I host a monthly Friday evening Nidra at Open Space.
Please bare in mind you’ll need to keep yourself warm and or/cool so ideally removable layers and one that are easy to move in.
Yes always to ensure groups are kept small and there’s enough numbers to run the class.
Yes! I teach Hatha with a mindfulness twist because it’s slow in nature and gentle in pace and perfect for all abilities but specifically for beginners / novices.
