🦵 This Week in Yoga: Caring for Our Knees 🦵

Our knees work hard every day, carrying us through life, yet they are often overlooked until they become uncomfortable.

This week we’ll be exploring movements that help:
✨ Strengthen the muscles that support the knees
✨ Improve flexibility in the hips and ankles
✨ Build balance and stability
✨ Increase awareness of healthy alignment
✨ Support joint health and confidence in movement

Remember, yoga isn’t about forcing your body into shapes—it’s about learning to move with kindness, awareness and ease.

Whether your knees are happy, stiff, creaky, or somewhere in between, there will be options for everyone.

See you on the mat! 🙏🏼

✨Cooling breathe work✨

Sitali Pranayama..

Sit comfortably with a straight spine.

👅 Curl your tongue lengthwise so the edges meet in the center. Stick the tip of your tongue slightly out through your lips. Or press your flat tongue against the back of your top teeth.

Inhale deeply, as if you were sipping from a straw.

Close the mouth

Exhale gently through nostrils.

Repeat 5-10 times

Feel cool!

Ready to start your Yoga Journey?

✨Bio✨

Hi, I’m Sam and have been practising Iyengar yoga now for 15+ years..

When I decided to become a teacher, I was really fascinated by the anatomy of yoga…how different moves can improve posture, physical movement and energy levels - how a slight tweak to your pose can take you deeper into it..
The Mind-Body connection!

You’ll very rarely see me in any of my classes/ workshops without chairs, blocks, belts, bolsters to help with alignment, so it becomes accessible to all.

I used to love high energetic yoga that challenged me, and it’s taken me a few years to know that restorative is equally as needed!

I now love breathwork and teach this in school too, especially around exam stress! .. Once you learn to belly breathe- extend your exhale, you really can take a lot of bodily stress away!

One last thing is my love community yoga, getting to know each other… being with like-minded people who love yoga and having fun too!!

This Week in Yoga: Backbends 🌟

This week we’ll be exploring GENTLE to stronger backbends, helping to improve spinal mobility, strengthen the back body and open the chest and shoulders.

Benefits of backbends include:
✨ Improved posture
✨ Increased energy levels
✨ Greater spinal flexibility
✨ Opening through the chest and shoulders
✨ Building confidence and resilience

We’ll focus on creating strength and support first, so every backbend feels safe and comfortable for your body.

Whether you’re working with Cobra, Sphinx, Bridge, Camel or simply enjoying a gentle heart-opening stretch, there will be options for everyone.

See you on the mat! 💚

The term “yin yoga” comes from the Taoist tradition.
Yin is about finding stillness and cooling the body. A balance from hectic life styles!

Suitable for all - in yin yoga, we get comfortable using props - poses are held for a longer period of time to increase flexibility in that part of the body. Instead of holding for five breaths..

There are just a few places left this Saturday’s Yin yoga and reiki workshop..
Message me to book 🌻
