YOGA CLASSES

Scroll down for timetable

I set up my first yoga class in 2018 at St Marys Church and Beeston Parish Centre, and now have classes throughout the South of Leeds; Morley, Beeston and Gildersome.

When you attend my class, my wish for you is that you experience a class based on mindfulness; to focus on your breath, turn your awareness inwards, listen to your body, open your mind up for reflection and contemplation, consider nature and the planet, but above all enjoy an hour of pure self care; a rare opportunity to practice compassion and kindness to this body you are living in. If you leave my class feeling de-stressed, relaxed and interested in what you've heard, then my job is done. As well as mindfulness, I aim to weave some of the deeper, philosophical and subtle aspects of yoga into my yoga classes; Yoga as a whole, rather than just physical movement.

If this interests you, then please do join me for yoga.

EVERYONE WELCOME!

Join me to nourish your mind, body and spirit.
