The group dynamic and regularity of weekly classes is appealing to many people. Although we practise with focus and in silence, there is a strong sense of communication in the room, which often leads to friendships being formed outside the studio.

I generally take a theme for a term or half-term and allow the practice to develop over the weeks. The practice is always informed by the philosophical teaching of yoga and has a definite ‘shape’ – the work with postures and breath put together specifically to explore the theme. The practice is a reflective experience as well as a physical and energetic one, and its effects can often allow for change in our daily lives.

It’s really important that you are truly comfortable when sitting in a yoga class. You need to sit with your spine free and unsupported where possible, so do allow yourself all the support you need. Chairs are provided for those who need them, and I’d beg with you to sit on a chair rather than being in agony on the floor!

Inclusivity

I want to ensure that financial issues are not a barrier to attending my classes, workshops and retreats. If this is currently the case for you, please contact me by email, eleanor.yoga.flute@gmail.com, and we can have a chat to see how to make it possible for you.
