In-Person Group Yoga Class
A rewarding way to practice Yoga together in a small group of like-minded Yogis with lesson plans grouped around a theme with progression week on week. Diligent and consistent practice will get you there, whilst seeking contentment within each practice and progression over time.
Objectives
Lesson Plans are put together to meet individual needs as well as the group. Elements of breathing, relaxation and philosophy are layered in the class. Attention is on physical attributes as well as mental attributes. Physical attributes includes coordination and balance, alignment accuracy, muscle strength building, and working at your own range in terms of flexibility. Props may include bricks, belts and bands to include some elements of resistance training.
Who’s it for?
The pace of this class is considerate and key poses will be explored in more details however this is, at times, a dynamic paced class when you can expect to be moving to the pace of the breath for some sections of the class. Yoga experience is desired, but not essential for the keen Yoga student.
Prerequisites
Ideally 2 years of Yoga practice however everyone is welcome.

Adrian Morton –
Laurence provides great Yoga classes, tailored both to the needs of the individual and the class. She is very friendly and welcoming, encouraging and supportive. She leads with a kind enthusiasm, sharing teachings and helping us to improve our relationship with ourselves and others.
Laurence Turner –
This really touches my heart Adrian, I am so pleased that the layers of reflection hit the spot. Despite a physical class, which can be challenging in many ways sometimes as I – and my students- like it, in the end it is all about relationships. I look forward to our September classes, our challenge will be ‘flexibility’ :-0)
Marcela –
There are many subtle aspects and layers of yoga, some of which can be difficult to teach and convey in the class. Laurence does it really well. Her lessons are full of presence, positive energy and inspiration, they set me up for the week ahead.
Laurence Turner –
Thanks Marcela, that is really nice to hear. Yoga comes very much to life when we integrate wisdom and reflection into the physical practice. I never tire of it and I love teaching our Monday group 🙂
