Yoga for All - Sept/Oct 2025

My Yoga for All classes will be suitable for anyone, regardless of whether they have done any yoga or exercise before. I will always offer all sorts of variations of movements including the use of props to enable the sequence to be accessible to everyone, in fact this is actively encouraged so that we don’t risk injury. An important part of yoga is that you listen to your body and concentrate on how a pose feels, rather than how it looks. We all have different bodies with different issues that feel different from day to day, so there will always be something you can do to join in.

If you have a yoga/ exercise mat you can bring, that is very helpful. However I do have some with me that you can borrow. I also bring some blocks and blankets that you can borrow for support. If you have any props that you usually use in your practice, you are welcome to bring them along. A cushion is often helpful for relaxation at the end. Wear comfortable clothing and bring some water.

There is free parking at all of the venues. At Willington Village Hall, Great Barford Village Hall and Colmworth Village Hall there are large car parks. At Sheerhatch School in Cople, there are some parking spaces opposite, in front of the church and normally plenty of space on the road. At Moggerhanger Village Hall you can either park in front of the hall or around the back in the car park.

When booking, please fill out the online form to tell me about any injuries or issues you might have. It is useful to know this so that I can ensure that all the movements we do can be adapted to suit every person taking part. If you missed this step, just contact me in the Contact tab of the booking page and let me know.

Yes, yoga can be very beneficial during pregnancy as it is good to keep up some exercise, especially gentle mobility and stretching throughout to keep you in good physical shape ready for labour and being a parent! It is also beneficial to take time for yourself to be still, present and calm, connecting with your baby and everything that your body is going through. Yoga can help decrease feelings of stress, depression, and anxiety, in addition to relieving pain or discomfort that comes in those last weeks of pregnancy. There are some movements that are not recommended for pregnant people, especially those that involve balancing or inversions. I will suggest adaptations that you can do as an alternative. Take a bit more time moving between poses, rather than jumping and don’t push yourself too hard. If you would like more advice on this, please do not hesitate to ask me.
