Are you a in your golden age and have been thinking about starting up, or restarting, a Yoga practice because you have heard of the amazing benefits but are not too keen to start in a big group or with lots of young bendy people?
Wouldn't it be nice to get all the benefits of stress relief, pain relief, better sleep, increased balance and flexibility, calmer mind and a lovely community in a small and friendly group with everyone in the same shoes?
As my life's mission is to share Yoga with as many people who are open to it I am excited to introduce this special course in July 2021 - Golden Beginners Yoga - a 4 week Yoga course.
The course is specially designed with golden age (anywhere above 45 years) beginners in mind but it can be useful for anybody practising Yoga already as each teacher may teach you something from a new angle or it could be that you need to hear it several times before the knowledge becomes wisdom inside.
If you are ready to take a step toward finding your inner and outer balance please contact Dora on 07496404677 or dora.longman4@gmail.com to book your place.
