Yoga for cyclists
Cycling on a sunny spring day is a wonderful feeling. Wind in your hair, sun on your face, gentle purr of chain and cogs and so on. Shame, then, that sunny spring days are a thing of the past. Should they turn up at any point though, you want to be ready with that bikeContinue reading “Yoga for cyclists”

It’s always rewarding to introduce people to yoga, especially when they all come round from savasana (we did a lovely 10 minute one) feeling like they’ve had a proper night’s sleep.Continue reading “Ever hated chair pose?

Wait, yoga’s like clubbing now?
Oof! Today’s gonna be a busy one, and with no time to practise before lunchtime or early afternoon, it had to be early morning yoga. Yeah I know, early morning yoga and early morning clubbing are at different ends of the spectrum, but I reckon they overlap in more than just the time slot, soContinue reading “Wait, yoga’s like clubbing now?”
