Since I started living in Hove, I have tried a few Reformer Pilates classes as there are so many Pilates studios in the Brighton area. It’s made me think about the similarities between Pilates Reformer classes and one to one yoga
Starting in 2024, I will be offering One to one private yoga classes in Hove, East Sussex on Thursdays. This in addition to my Hove workshops
So I am now regularly running yoga workshops in Brighton & Hove. These will be on Sunday afternoons, 2-4pm. The venue is The Tree of life centre on Portland Road, BN3. This centre has a small fully equipped Yoga studio, with free parking on nearby side streets (or about a ten minute walk from Aldrington Station).
During lockdown I’ve been asked by my students which are the best Yoga poses to practice at home ? Many people do not have Yoga equipment and feel this holds them back, but this is not necessarily the case.
As I'm writing this post we in the UK are in lockdown due to Corona virus. Beforehand, I was teaching Iyengar Yoga to hundreds of people every year. Many of us are now self-isolating.
The body and mind connection that is achieved through a careful and mindful Yoga practice is able to reveal the underlying causes of our stress. It is then that we can start to address these causes and improve our lives.
So I am running more workshops on Saturday afternoons in 2020 - almost one per month. The venue is still the lovely Tythe barn on Pondtail Road.
Iyengar Yoga is renowned as a safe way of working, partly due to the use of props to help stiffer students. Iyengar Yoga can help with many of the common complaints of sports people, from muscle tightness to more serious injuries.
Is Yoga enough on its own or do you need to add something like running or swimming to make it a complete exercise program?
Iyengar Yoga is known for many things, one of which is its use of equipment, known as 'props'. What Yoga equipment do you really need?
