Lift share, kit and feedback …

Anyone hear snoring ?  ….. wasn’t me! Honest. Although on that heated floor with the beautiful ceiling and cosseting it could easily have been any of us.

Isn’t yoga at St Mary’s Heritage Centre so blissful, peaceful and restful?

Classes are at 2pm – 3.15pm and 6.45pm – 8.15pm

St Mary’s Heritage Centre, Oakwellgate, Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, NE8 2A between the Sage Gateshead and The Tyne Bridge.

There is an honesty box tea trolley and time to arrive and ask me questions before each class. 

Welcome to all our new people and a delightful re-connect with our regular practitioners. Great to see you.

Remember this class is for you.  Just as you are.  Do let me know if you have any special needs, requests, injuries or changes you would appreciate seeing. Do reflect on why you do your yoga and them I can assist you to achieve what you are hoping for.

Some thoughts to help our yoga classes along….

1) Do consider lift sharing with your yoga buddies.  Anyone wanting to offer a lift can let me know and I will see if I can connect you.  

2) If you came as a drop -in and now wish to switch to the block, do get in touch to pay electronically or bring the cash or cheque next week please.

3) St Mary’s is a beautiful venue that of course costs me a lot to hire.  So I do need larger numbers to make it possible than when we were at Gateshead Old Town Hall.  Do spread the word.  

4) I am still getting to know you all.  If you are on the edges and what more of my attention do come nearer to me and swop positions about. I will walk around but I don’t want to make people always wonder where I am!

5) Do consider one or a few private yoga classes with me.  These are real investment and treat for your body and mind.  You can have a 1 2 1 or share with you pals.  That way I can check your individual needs and help you to move from the inside out, to work with your alignment and posture. Yoga is a lifetime practice, so we all have new things to learn and experience no matter how seasoned a practitioner we are.

4) Kit – you need a blanket, a couple of blocks, an eyebag if you like them and a mat of course.  Please bring your own kit if you can as thats easier than me carrying everyones.  However anyone cycling gets to certainly borrow my kit and brownie points for being green! I will always have a few spare if you ware coming straight fro work etc

5) Practice at home – 5 mins is enough you know. Home practice doesn’t have to be an hour and half.  Start small.

6) Consider coming on a yoga retreat with me. They give you a chance to nurture yourself, away from life’s demands. I have a retreat in March 31st-2nd April, September 22nd-24th and November 10-12th.

Self care is really important.  Sometimes the gentle yoga practices are so more powerful than you think.

Breathe well, rest well, move well and see you all on Wednesday.

Yoga made me stronger and less flexible

I attended a super training with Christine Howitt a couple of weeks ago.  Christine said that practising yoga has actually made her stronger and less flexible.  And yes this is a good thing.  People often think that yoga is purely about developing flexibility but for those of us that have hyper mobility in their joints its really all about strength.  So in fact you may find you become less flexible.  There are a couple of very bendy ladies that have just started yoga with me at St Mary’s Heritage Centre and yes their focus is strength.

If you want to join us in the most beautiful place to do yoga, my classes are at St Mary’s for the next 4 weeks. And I am taking bookings for January.  Yes there is heated floor and a what a great ceiling.
