Yoga for Health

What to expect

Yoga for Health classes are suitable for beginners and those with some previous yoga experience. To take part in the classes you will be required to get on and off the floor. You can complete the classes either barefoot or in socks. For hygiene reasons it is recommended that you bring your own yoga mat.

During the sessions the instructor will guide you through a series of movements, poses, breathing techniques and strength exercises. For some poses they will offer different options that you can try depending on your level of flexibility. You are welcome to take a break to rest at any point during the class.

You should wear something comfortable that you can easily move around in. You should bring a bottle of water and any emergency medications with you i.e. asthma inhalers, GTN sprays, dextrose tablets (as required).
