Now if you’d asked me about online yoga a year ago, I would have shrugged my shoulders.

Yoga? Via the internet? That sounds rubbish!!!

But this year has proven otherwise.

People are enjoying the yoga at home, in their lounges and bedrooms (and occasionally even their hallways).

And I was really touched that 20 people showed up for my “Stand Your Ground” workshop on Saturday morning!

Some of them local, some of them not local. Some of them I’ve met in real life, some of them I haven’t.

Online yoga has brought these advantages to the people that do yoga with me and my colleagues: Comfort – do it in the warm at home and wear pyjamas if you want
Community – connect up and do something with others despite lockdown
Privacy – turn your camera on or off as you please
Time-saving – no need to travel anywhere
Flexibility – try out different classes and teachers
Better commitment – monthly membership encourages people to attend more regularly and more classes
Excellent value – people are paying the same or less for classes than before

Now I’m not teaching today, so here’s a YouTube for you – an hour-long class that’s all about Releasing Tension!

In this 60-minute class you’ll use your deep yoga breathing to bring some love and kindness to any tight spots in your shoulders or hips that need to relax.

This class is suitable for improvers and confident beginners and I will give modifications for pregnant people too.
