You’re not a machine after all.

Working with your body on the mat, is about saying YES to who you are right now.

You don’t need to change, just nuture what you already have.

Remeber it's about progress not perfection, what small step did you take today?

We don’t see any of these things as an issue,

Whatever challenge you may or may not face, if you want to come to class, we will help you participate at a level that works for you and your body and if over time you improve, then that’s a bonus.

But if you just enjoy coming that's enough too!

If there is something particular worrying you about booking a class, pop us a message and let us help you find a solution that feels comfortable for you.

Festive attire is welcome but completely optional.

Classes provide a welcome break from Christmas chaos, spend an hour relaxing, listening to your body and using gentle movement to release any tension you could be feeling.

We will be taking our festive break from the 20th Dec but we look forward to welcoming you back to the mat from the 5th of January 2026! (wow, eek)

Use what you learn in class to help you in daily life.

For example if you feel creaky in the morning, ask your yoga teacher to show you some floor exercises that you can transfer to doing in bed before you get up.

Our teachers are always happy to give suggestions if you have specific areas you would like help to stretch out, just ask.

For example, if you feel creaky in the morning, ask your yoga teacher to show you some floor exercises that you can transfer to doing in bed before you get up.

I can’t take all the credit for this, I have seen it elsewhere but I really like it.

When things feel tough, choosing even the tiniest thing that brings you peace can be enough to help you shift yourself in a positive direction.

Here are 5 suggestions if you need some inspiration:

Close your eyes and take 3 deep breaths.

Turn off all devices and lights and enjoy the silence 1 minute or as long as you comfortably can.

Stand on the doorstep with your cuppa for some fresh air.

Try the flowing side stretch from our Monday Movement series, to help you breathe a little easier view it here: https://www.facebook.com/catonthematsheffield/videos/1791355271809635/

A Friday pause to help you relax into the weekend.

As we end a busy week, it’s a good time to pause. Take a few good castle breaths and allow yourself to relax into the weekend.

Often, those of us with busy brains find it hard to rest and relax because our brains just won’t slow down.

I personally have found yoga helpful in dealing with this, because you are still moving and doing something you’re almost “tricking” your brain that you’re still busy.
But by focusing on the activities in a class, you’re actually giving your nervous system the chance to slow down and relax without the stress of being still.

You might even find you sleep better the night after a class.

If you’d like to understand more about how yoga could help you with feeling overwhelmed with your own thoughts, pop me a message, it’s something I love to talk about.

It’s such an important part of our ethos that all our students can take whatever they personally need from a class.

If that looks slightly different for each person and varies week by week, that’s fine by us.

This student listened to what her body was craving and was comfortable enough to go with it, even though that wasn’t what everyone else in her class might have been doing.

She knew the calming space would be there for her to use, which is something we are proud to create in all our sessions.

How do you like to reconnect with yourself when life gets noisy?

To simply lay on the floor, observing the breath and physical body.

Something we often don’t get the chance to do in
everyday life!
