Yoga classes in Somerset

30/05/2020

Even as lockdown may start to be slowly released, I don't anticipate holding face-to-face or group classes anytime soon. I hope and plan to continue with online yoga classes after life returns to 'normal', as it has brought me into contact with students who I hadn't seen for a long time, or only saw every 4-6 weeks in person. There is plenty of space to join in a current online class (via Zoom), or if there's sufficient interest, I'll start a new class. Do get in touch if you've been thinking about it and would like to try it out - it works pretty well!

I'm now providing a video of your online yoga class (if all participants agree to being recorded), so that you can practise at home in-between classes, and/or catch up on anything missed due to dropped internet connection. Feedback suggests it's very helpful so that you can see what you're doing - which may not be what you think you're doing! Do get in touch if you'd like to join an online class

Students have been pleasantly surprised by how well the online classes have been going. For those who've been isolating alone at home, it's been especially helpful as it's given them some social contact as well as all the other benefits of yoga in this difficult time.
Get in touch if you'd like to give it a try - I'll help you through getting set up with Zoom if you don't feel very tech confident.
Meanwhile, please take care and stay well!

I now have ONLINE yoga classes, using Zoom, running out of our home in Street, near Glastonbury. You need to book these classes as numbers are limited; they are running on:

* Mon evening - 6.30 to 7.45pm
* Wednesday morning -10.30 to 11.45am (this is a repeat of Monday's class, delivered live/fresh)
* Wednesday evening - 6.00 to 7.15pm
* Friday morning - 10.30 to 11.45 am (a repeat of Wednesday evening's class, delivered live/fresh)

The classes aim to get as close as possible to our normal group and one-to-one yoga classes, using Zoom, the popular online meeting platform. We will be able to see and hear each other. It's quite easy to set up, and I arrange a test session for students, as well as an initial trial class at no charge. As well as the group online classes I am also delivering private one-to-one tuition.

I have run several of these classes already - do call me if you want to discuss how they work - 07941 550617 or 01458 898816

In the meantime, all face to face classes are suspended during the coronavirus epidemic/lockdown.

Unfortunately I've had to close down the Thursday afternoon class in Wedmore due to low numbers. However, I will be starting a new class in Street on Monday evenings from 10th July - will update details soon. Meanwhile, the Wednesday evening class at Walton Village Hall continues, so do feel free to come along to that 🙂
