The Sanskrit word 'Yoga' translates as 'Union' - Yoga classes combine physical postures with breath awareness and movement, with the aim of bringing about this unified state of mind and body.
Yoga postures along with breathing exercises, strengthen and tone the body and improve the flow of energy - regulating the body and breath, and stilling the mind.
The system of Yoga originated in India 5,000 years ago, giving it a firm intellectual and philosophical base.
Everyone can practice yoga, regardless of age, sex or ability.
Whatever your reason for being drawn to yoga, I hope that by coming along to a class, I can help you begin to experience some of what yoga has to offer.
