WELLCOME YOGA

Beginners Yoga Classes in Stroud

People often use the excuse they “don’t do” yoga as they aren’t very flexible and my answer is that’s exactly the reason you should.

Rebecca’s Wellcome Yoga is about discovering what your body can do, how to get it moving naturally and experience that connection to your physical body that you have probably forgotten existed!

Rebecca runs small classes relevant for beginners and beyond. Each class is 1 hour and covers working on novel movement and building strength and flexibility through yoga.

In order to attend you need to book online and complete a short assessment form to make sure that you are accommodated for in each session.

This term starts Thursday 9th June – 21st July in the Lansdown gallery opposite to Wellcome Back Chiropractic Clinic.

These classes are designed for beginners and returners to yoga practice.

The class is an hour long and is broken into four sections. We warm up by moving in novel ways to wake up our systems. We then move onto specific stretching and strengthening that preps us for my guided 15 min flow section. The flow is nice and easy with music to engage the brain in a different way to stretching and strengthening. We finish with relaxation and breath work to calm our systems back down.

This term is all about finding active sitting positions that help us to sit on the floor more comfortably and increase our non-exercise activity thermogenesis (https://www.verywellfit.com/neat-non-exercise-activity-thermogenesis-2241984). Meaning you are using up calories whilst sitting and getting our movement snacks in during resting times.

It’s all about progression so this is just your starting block to take home and practice.

Please bring your own mats and wear loose comfortable clothing.

TESTIMONIAL

"Rebecca is excellent. She really takes care of her students making sure they are doing the poses the way they should be, without hurting themselves and you don’t feel under pressure to do the pose if you think it may be difficult for you. She will always give you an alternative pose which will be simplified. You leave feeling strong but completely relaxed. Would totally recommend her to anyone new or
not to yoga."

TESTIMONIAL

"I have attended a 6 weeks yoga course with Rebecca and absolutely loved it. The class size was pretty small which made sure Rebecca was able to spend time and watch every single of us to make sure the asanas were perfect. And on the completion of the course I was sent a personalised video of asanas that I should be using in order to improve my lower back pain. Overall, I highly recommend Rebecca's yoga course as it was fun, relaxing and very useful for my aches and pains!"
