Graham who I have taught for many years now. He recently celebrated his 70th. He is proof how yoga can keep the body mobile and flexible. He used to struggle with arthritic hip stiffness from previous sports pursuits but now is so much better ! He can settle into yoga postures that once upon a time would have been impossible. A great student and somebody who shares my love of cars - we often have a pre session chat about them and latest purchases !

Yoga provides rejuvenation for the body, calmness for the mind.

This great yoga posture that is so good for the hips, back and shoulders. However it can be intense. A bit like like gradually immersing yourself in cold water - it may produce resistance at first. Bracing. However the body soon melts into the posture and the practitioner relaxes more and more and the mind becomes deeply immersed in calm. The body enjoys freedom and flexibility.

Henrietta trying a mix up of arm variations in headstand. The mind doesn’t become stagnant with Yoga. It becomes crisp, clear and focused !

A photo of me having some self practice between classes. It’s not always easy to find the time everyday with teaching but I do my best even if only 10 minutes. Not a pose I find easy and I have to go beyond a few fears to give it a go without a wall behind me ! Even after nearly 30 years ! And it’s not perfect by any means but as I tell students - it doesn’t have to be ! Just do what you can do. It’s more about the inner journey. Facing the fears. Doing what you can do. Choosing calm over frustration and being the kindest voice in your head.
