Yoga Vida Calder Valley

Looking forward to practicing outside as and when the weather allows. ☀️
If you're looking to get more out of your yoga practice whether you're just starting or think it can help you with your other sports and hobbies, whether it's cycling, golf, running, etc.
I offer one-to-one and small group sessions that can be tailored to your body and needs. Contact me for more details 🙏

Triangle pose (Utthita Trikonasana), ticks lots of boxes for my body. Great to stretch the hamstrings, open the side-seams and outer-hips and open through the front of the chest.

Contact me for one-to-one or small-group yoga lessons and add yoga to your exercise routine. 🙏

Half Moon balance (Ardha Chandrasana), a great pose to strengthen the legs, open the hamstrings, pelvis, chest and use the breath to find a moment of calm during a challenging pose.
Balance, strength and openness are important qualities that I like to work on with my clients.
Contact me if you're interested in one-to-one or small group classes.

Yoga to keep you running, golfing, on your bike, etc…

Yoga is such a great way of bringing balance to the body, especially if you train in another sports:
- it creates flexibility in heavily-used muscles, increasing range of motion
- it builds strength across under-used areas, like core and upper-body
- it can help to prevent injury
- yoga breathing can improve focus and better breath coordination

I teach one-to-one and small group classes that can support you in your chosen sport.
Contact me for more details and check the Offers section for prices. 🙏

This month I'll be practicing TWISTS, in my one-to-one and group classes (at www.mycc.org.uk)
Twisitng Yoga poses have many benefits:
- maintain spine and back muscle flexibility
- help reduce anxiety, as you twist the chest opens and this can release tension
- improve gut health and condition the muscles along the sides of the body
- help to reduce back pain
- increase mobility acrose the torso

Contact me if you're interested in private classes, to help you get more from the benefits of yoga. 🙏

This year, my intention is to learn to love the postures I don't like so much, and hopefully this will flow into my every day life too.
What are your intentions for this year?
Look forward to seeing you in practice soon. 🙏

Life is getting busier at the moment and I found this on Yogaru and thought it might be helpful. These restorative postures are designed to help you achieve pure relaxation.
Give yourself 5 minutes, grab a pile of cushions and blankets to support your head, limbs and joints, focus the mind on smooth longer breaths and restore yourself. Afterwards you'll feel ready to get back to it. 🙏
