Trees & Birds of Autumn – A Seasonal West Yorkshire Federation of Yoga Workshop.

As the seasons shift, autumn invites us to ground like trees and release what no longer serves us, just as leaves gently fall. At the same time, we can find lightness and perspective, like birds taking flight.

This workshop blends grounding postures with uplifting movements, breath practices, and relaxation to help you connect with both stability and freedom. Together, we’ll explore the balance between rooting into the earth and opening to the sky — finding steadiness, clarity, and ease as we move into autumn.

All levels are welcome.

All welcome – hope you can join me 💛

🍂 Yoga this September – 'Balance Through Transition'.

September is a month of change — the light shifts, routines return, and nature reminds us that transition is part of life.

In our yoga practice this term, we’ll explore how to meet change with steadiness and grace. Through mindful breath, grounding postures, and moments of rest, we’ll balance Tapas (discipline, effort) with Ishvara Pranidhana (surrender, trust).

🧘‍♀️ Classes are open to all levels. Come as you are, leave feeling grounded and refreshed.

✨ Cookridge Village Hall
Mondays 7-8.15 pm,
Wednesdays 10.30-12 noon,

This week we gather for our final Yoga classes before the summer pause,

Our theme is: “Celebrate Your Inner Light In Full Bloom. ”Everything I need is already within me.”

It is a celebration of the light that lives within each of us. Like the sun at its peak, we’ll move through this practice with radiance and steadiness.

It’s a reminder that everything we search for — strength, clarity, joy, peace — already lives inside us.

Through breath, mindful movement, and rest, we’ll explore this inner light, nurturing it gently like sunlight on a garden.
Let this practice be both a celebration and a return — to yourself, to your heart, and to the wisdom already within you.

Also, in August (2nd and 23rd) I offer Yin & Yoga Nidra Saturday classes at Bramhope Village Hall, 11-12.15 pm. Please message me to book !

We are back to regular weekly classes from 1st September.
