Yoga allows strength, flexibility and balance to optimise our health and wellbeing
Teaching is about a love of Yoga and seeing folk grow in strength and vitality. Classes vary each week with themes and focus to keep us all fresh and moving forward. Yoga offers such a breadth of poses, sequences, breath, relaxation and meditation for body, breath and mind.
Hazel's yoga journey began as a teenager in school & later became vital after developing back pains post car injury. Yoga can support you, whether regaining strength after the lockdowns, find you need to balance your demanding job or just moved locally and like a class in your area to belong to. Do come and try a class and find the best version of yourself. Standing taller, breathing deeper and a more settled mind with a 90 minute session to develop, challenge and nourish you.

Doing our bit for our Planet. Do walk or cycle to class if you can, I drive to bring yoga to your local hall. Each hall is doing it's best, Deancourt recently added solar panels and Old Headington is a changed place since upgraded insulation and roof structure. Timers and thermostats have synchronised new more efficient boilers in Cumnor and Headington.
