My classes are a mix of Hatha yoga where we focus on specific postures and breathing techniques, and yoga flows (where we flow from one posture to another using breath to guide us). I include plenty of warming up and include somatic free flowing movement.

Different themes or focuses are developed over a few sessions help to help us expand and evolve our practice over time. I always give lots of options to allow you to explore what works best for your body, and develop a practice that is nourishing and personal to your needs.

All of my classes are infused with a mindful and self compassionate approach, and an understanding of how we can use yoga to help calm and build resilience in our nervous systems, to help us deal with the demands of our modern lives. We explore (with a light touch) different elements of the yoga tradition. And, always including a bit of fun and laughter along the way the way too.

Please bring a mat along if you have one. We relax at the end so a warmer top layer is often useful for this. A small blanket/fleece is also useful for padding for knees etc and as a cover for relaxing. I always bring some spare mats along and provide other yoga props.

Feel free to call me to have a chat on 07775687995 if you have any further questions or want to discuss the suitability of yoga for you if you have any injuries/medical issues etc.

Here’s the class weekly schedule and a description of each class.

A gently energising morning class to stretch, strengthen, connect with your breath and body and find a calm and balanced energy for the day ahead. A combination of a good warm up, mindfully held postures, balances and more energising flows, where we move from one posture into another following the breath. Suitable for anyone including beginners.

The class is suitable for anyone new to yoga, returning to yoga or anyone who wants a slow and thoughtful approach to developing a yoga practice that nourishes and supports their wellbeing.

We explore a variety of yoga postures and yoga flows as we build and grow our practice, with a little more explanation and exploration to find what works well in our bodies.

THURSDAY 6.30 to 7.30PM YOGA ‘‘FEEL GOOD’ FLOW FENISCOWLES INFANT SCHOOL Livesey Branch Road, Blackburn, BB2 5HW

This class focuses on developing strength and flexibility alongside opportunities to slow down, be mindful and relax. We start with some breathing, gentler movement and postures to 'check in' and prepare our body and mind for the practice. Then we move on to some yoga flows and incorporate some longer held postures. We finish with a guided relaxation. In some classes we will just enjoy our flow, in others we may focus in more on a specific posture or theme. Lots of options are always given to allow the yoga to work for your body, mind and energy on that particular day. The class is suitable for those with some yoga experience and also for many beginners.
