Why Practise Yoga?

Yoga is suitable for all ages and abilities, as you work to your own level.  I’ve lost count of the times someone has said to me “I can’t do yoga, I’m not flexible enough.”… Yoga will give you that flexibility, and a whole lot more!

People who practice yoga experience all sorts of benefits, and science is starting to provide concrete evidence that yoga improves physical and mental health, reduces stress, heals aches and pains, and keeps sickness at bay.

Here are some benefits of yoga and reasons to include regular yoga practice in your life:

• Increased flexibility.

• Increased strength.

• You’ll feel calmer and more relaxed, and you’ll carry that feeling out of class and into your daily life.

• Better sleep.

• Improved balance and posture, and a healthy spine.  Yoga is really good for reducing lower back pain and sciatica.

• Improved circulation and heart health.

• Lower blood pressure.

• Stronger immunity.

• Reduced stress, improved mood and better focus.
