Hit the hump day with a Downward Facing Dog or two to get your tail wagging…. and come join the friendliest yoga gang in Gloucestershire. The clues are in the name - my aim is that this yoga course is for every body. Yes - really. Even yours. (And if Wednesday evenings don’t work for you, how about Saturday mornings? Discover more here…)
This is the perfect course for you if -
You’re looking for the perfect mid-week pick-me-up, or the ideal mid-week calm-me-down if that’s what you need, the practice will give you whatever you’re looking for.
You want to press the ‘pause’ button and put YOURSELF first (actually a totally sensible thing to do and not selfish at all).
You’ve done a bit of yoga in the past and want to get back on the mat after a break.
You’re looking to start yoga, are averagely mobile, and want to dive in at just the right level of challenge….without it being intimidating and terrifying.
You need that little bit of commitment to finally get you sticking to something that’s going to get your New Year off to a great start…
We run the classes in blocks of ten weeks. Each ten week block has a theme running through it meaning you get a bit of a deeper-dive into a topic.
At the same time you get a really good all-round practice meaning you leave the studio feeling a little closer to the amazing version of yourself you really are.
In every 60 minute class we’ll find just the right balance between doing stuff that’s good for the body, and stuff that’s good for the brain. So we’ll start with some mindfulness (that even the most fidgety sceptic can get on board with…), followed by breathing and bending, before finishing class with a lovely little lie-down (or ‘savasana’ if you want to be all yogic about it…).
Sounds amazing! What’s the cost?
For the course of ten hour-long lessons, the investment is just £100.

WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW?
Real Life Yoga is all about helping real people bring a little (or a lot) of yoga into their real lives. Absolutely no prior bendiness is required, but please note there will be movements that take us from standing, down to the floor, and back up again.
If you have problems with these kinds of movements, learning yoga in a class scenario such as this may not be for you. Please contact Meg to discuss if you have any questions or concerns.
If you have any serious medical conditions you should check with your doctor before starting any kind of new physical activity. This class is not suitable for anyone who is pregnant.
