In the run up to the Spring Equinox at the end of March, I’m preparing a set of yoga sessions to help align with the energies of this time, to help us get ready for what is coming up. It feels like everything is beginning to wake up out there, like it’s almost time to get out there and get going – if only it would stop raining! And I know that by the time we hit the Equinox, I’ll be raring to go!
But before we get to that point, there’s still time to set some really good foundations for all of this 2026 action.
In my usual Somatic Yoga classes over the next few weeks, we’re going to be looking at boundaries and edge places and in particular, at the movement between edge and ease. This is basically going to help our nervous system get more familiar with transitioning between these two states, and it’s going to help train us to notice when perhaps we need to be a bit kind to ourselves, letting ourselves rest and recoup before launching out again.
As we work through this short block of classes between now and the 23rd March, you can expect familiar yoga poses, woven through with gentle somatic flow sequences. There will be lots of self-compassion as we gently wake the body up and with that in mind, there will also be lots of playful and exploratory movements, fantastic for nervous system regulation and also great for waking up underused muscle groups that are feeling sluggish or stiff perhaps, after all this cold and wet weather.
If this all sounds good to you, you're so welcome to come and join us. All my classes are standalone, so come to one or come to all, it’s totally up to you. Classes are all mixed ability and run every Monday:
Church Stretton 9.30 – 10.30am
Shrewsbury 12 – 1pm
Picklescott 7 – 8.15pm
