In today’s fast-paced, tech-saturated world, young people—and teachers—are under more pressure than ever. The constant presence of phones, social media, and academic demands can leave minds overwhelmed and bodies tense. Yoga offers a powerful antidote.

Bringing yoga into your school—whether as part of PE lessons, an after-school club, a one-off wellbeing week session, or a dedicated staff class—gives pupils and staff a chance to *reset*. It creates space to move the body, calm the mind, and build resilience from the inside out.

Yoga helps children develop focus, confidence, balance, and emotional regulation—all vital life skills that support both learning and wellbeing. For staff, it offers a much-needed pause, helping to reduce stress, prevent burnout, and promote a more positive working environment.

This is more than just stretching—it’s a practice that supports mental health, encourages mindfulness, and helps every individual find a moment of calm in an increasingly distracted world.

Bring the Benefits of Yoga into Your School

Yoga in Schools

Join us for a friendly and welcoming **Chair Yoga** class designed for **everyone** – whether you're new to yoga, working with limited mobility, recovering from injury, or just looking for a gentler way to stretch and strengthen.

Using the support of a chair, we explore mindful movement, breath awareness, and relaxation in a way that’s safe, accessible, and enjoyable.  There will be options to stand and improve our balance and coordination and sometimes gentle movement/dance to music (something we have found to be really calming and fun!)

You’ll improve flexibility, balance, and posture while calming the mind and boosting your mood. A chair offers a stable base for less mobile individuals and is highly adaptable to the physical needs of a variety of disabilities and injuries, such as people with special needs who have varying degrees of physical disability. Chair yoga can also benefit people with other conditions, like high blood pressure; anxiety; chronic fatigue syndrome; arthritis; multiple sclerosis; depression; and chronic pain. Also suitable for those with mobility issues including wheelchair users.

Expect a light-hearted, supportive atmosphere where you can go at your own pace. Come as you are – all ages, all bodies, all levels welcome 😊

🪑 **No need to get down on the floor** \
💫 **Leave feeling relaxed, refreshed and more connected**

**👍 Pay as you go or book a bundle**

I take Emma's regular term time yoga sessions and they are always wonderful and well done. I have now taken one of her summer single sessions this week which added the delight of sound bowls. Beautiful.
Thank you, Emma.

Have you ever done yoga before?

My Yoga for All classes are a blend of the best of traditional and contemporary yoga and suitable for all levels. Great for releasing tension from shoulders & hips whilst building core strength as we journey safely towards a peak pose with many stops along the way.

Expect dynamic movement, creative flows, strengthening postures, breathwork, and moments of stillness to support your whole self — body, mind, and spirit. We’ll explore energising sequences and grounding practices, all guided by the breath to cultivate presence and inner calm. The session closes with deep relaxation, optional mini massage, and a short meditation — offering space to truly rest, reconnect with yourself, and connect with others in a warm, supportive environment.

Either drop-in or book the full 7 weeks (best value), whatever works best for your schedule. If you book the full term, you can choose from 5 local venues each week for ultimate flexibility. Each session is recorded so that you can also catch up from home if you are unable to make a class one week.

Lovely hour with Emma, muscles stretched and mind relaxed. 

Anne Paul

This is my second  term with Emma which I have enjoyed immensely. 1 had done yoga for many years pre covid but had not gone back to a class for the last 4 years I have fallen . back into it with the easy natural way Emma teaches. Not only is she one of the best yoga instructors I have had but a thoroughly nice person. Great personal skills as well as having the most amazing hands for our end of class massage. I look forward to the class every week.

This session is great for anyone who wants to learn a specific yoga move, create more mobility or strength.



'121 Yoga' - building a bespoke programme to meet your yoga goals

121 Yoga

Would you like to improve wellbeing and performance in your workplace? Studies prove that having an opportunity at the beginning or middle of a work day to move, mobilise and stretch the body can increase mental clarity, creativity, focus and productivity for the rest of the day. In-work yoga sessions are also a great incentive/ reward to be able to offer to your employees.

Our yoga sessions provide the perfect opportunity for you and your colleagues to take a moment out of the day to recharge, refresh and rebalance in body and mind. We normally include some strength and mobility work, energising movement flows, breathwork and mindfulness but can tailor the sessions to what works best for you and your business.

We can provide mats, blocks and equipment (for up to 20), you just need to provide the space. We can work around equipment to an extent. As long as you can create a bit of floor space, we can get people yoga-ing! Option for Chair Yoga too if that suits your layout/ colleagues better. We are happy to lead a session for as many people as your space allows, the price remains the same.

Contact Emma on balanceworksyoga1@gmail.com or 07905 281629 for more information and pricing. Prices start from £110 but depend on length, frequency and location of class. Discounts available for booking a block of sessions.

Or simply select a date and time that suits you and we will be in touch to arrange the rest and discuss payment options.

We look forward to bringing the magic of yoga to refresh and revitalise your workplace. Find out more today!
