Accidental Yogis

5 YEARS AGO! ✨ My first day at YOGA school pic 💗

Doing my YTT with was such an amazing experience with gorgeous people that I’ll never forget!

I had no idea how the training would go, the kind of people there, if I’d be able to do it, but so@stumped you just have to jump up in and go for it! I’m so glad I did 🧡🧡🧡

It’s always amazing to see the transformation of people as they arrive at class compared to how they leave 😌

All it takes is some commitment to get to there 💪

We’re based at Buxton Methodist Church upstairs on the Market Place.

Just bring your mat and maybe a bottle of water. If you’re coming for Yin yoga then bring all the props and cushions you have too!

Hatha is almost fully booked tonight, but still some space at Yin - if you prefer a more relaxed/lying down approach then this is the class for you!

Poor posture? Back pain? Not very flexible or strong?

Come and try yoga! I know trying new things can be scary and often yoga is seen as a bit silent and stuffy. That is not the case with these classes 👌 Do not stifle the laughter…(I certainly don’t 😅) Enjoy your practice 🙏

I emailed the regular yogis last week, but in case you’ve missed it, we are moving back to Buxton Methodist Church from next week (16th)!

Come and join us at Harpur this week and let’s shake off the dreary (and very soggy!) day! 🤗🙏

So let’s do a little test… Allow your left ear to drop towards your left shoulder… now the other side.. Feeling a bit tense, a few little clicks as you go? Then it’s high time you shake the stress and lets loosen the neck and shoulders!

In Hatha we’ll stretch into these areas but also have our usual balancing time (aka play time 😅) and strength work 💪

In Yin, it’ll all be relaxing 😍 So loosening into the neck and the shoulders and letting yourself sink in and relax 😌

Some vague themes for any new yogis this week!But what the heck is ‘Moon sequence’ and what does the summer solstice have to do with a yin yoga class? 🤷🏻‍♀️

The moon sequence is a series of poses we do every month when there happens to be a full moon that week. This reminds us of life’s cycles and how things come and go. The poses themselves are great for strength and flexibility. 🌕

In Yin yoga we have time to pause and reflect as we enjoy relaxing poses that last 3 to 5 minutes. This gives time for me to lead you in a guided meditation or simply give you something to think about whilst you’re relaxing. Tonight‘s theme of the summer solstice reflects the event that is occurring this week. Poses will be ones to really savour much like the tasty fruit and vege grown locally 🍓

So regulars and newbies! Lets go! 🙌🙏
Newbies just bring a mat and maybe a bottle of water. If you’re coming to Yin then bring all the yoga props you have and cushions and a blanket. 😌

It’s Men’s Health Week! Speaking directly to the men folk, if you’re worried about your health, do something about it! 🙌

Whether that’s booking a GP appointment that you keep meaning to or improving your physical and mental health with something like…. Yoga! 🤗

I think blokes tend to think that yoga is just for women, and that you’re too inflexible to do it. Well hush! Yoga was originally created by men, and you’ll only be inflexible if you don’t stretch regularly. So get to it! Use the free code to book a class THIS WEEK! ✨ MENSFREECLASS ✨

See you soon yogis 🙏

This weeks Hatha class has a balance focus 🤸‍♀️ (nope no handstands/headstands 😆)- purely balancing on our feet! Wobbles and laughter welcome 🙌

This weeks yin class is one of our favourites: a little taste of chakras! Gently balancing the chakras in body with different relaxing poses. If you’re not sure on chakras, just come and enjoy the gentle stretches that will soothe both body and mind 😌

Anyone else feel a bit sluggish after the Bank Holiday weekend? 🐌 Whether you’re tired from doing lots or feeling a lack of energy from lots of rest, let’s wake ourselves up! 🙌

I enjoyed connecting to one of the unique yoga breaths last week so I’ve got a firy one for you today to energise you! 🔥 We’ll keep us active with strong poses before relaxing as usual for the last section of the class (don’t panic, always go at your own pace)

In Yin, we’ll let go of any fire as release gently into the spine. Always a great class for aches and pains or if you find you suffer with stress.

Tuesdays and Fridays 🤗

This week our Hatha class is helping us to shake off the stress of the day. Yoga is very good at doing this normally but this week we’ll work with the breath a little more to calm our nervous system.

Yin tonight is a guided meditation as we take ourselves gently from pose to pose. Sound a bit weird? Just go with it 😅 Yin poses are sloooow. They are mostly floor based where the body is supported by props so you can relax 😌

Did you run a marathon this weekend? …No me neither 😅 But one of regulars did! An amazing achievement! 🥇👏

As such, yin yoga tonight will be full of postures to aid recovery for runners! It’s a favourite sequence for all though as generally everyone’s legs are achy from doing lots of exercise or from being glued to a desk chair all day. Yin tonight will stretch key muscles in the legs, hips and butt! Not only that but help release a little into those tricky connective tissues like the IT band (oof to get that massaged!😱😭)

My regulars, will know what’s coming tonight with Hatha- the moon sequence! We do it every time the week contains a full moon. A lovely series of postures to both strengthen and stretch. It also means we get to play with our half moon balance! 🙃🌛

Newbies always welcome to these beginner friendly classes 🙏

WE ARE BACK with yoga classes at Harpur Hill Sports Centre from TONIGHT! 😍 If you’ve not tried a class with me before then come and enjoy the first class FREE 🤩

At Hatha we are looking after your feet and legs in particular! So if you’re running a marathon like one of our regular yogis or just have tired legs, then this will be a great class for you 🏃‍♂️🏃🏽‍♀️

At Yin, I will be leading a guided meditation for those of us that perhaps didn’t get away to a sunny beach last week 😅 Expect lots of lovely, slow and gentle poses to relax, open up tight muscles and joints and immerse yourself in the visualisation.

We are back at classes this week!! Who’s missed their regular yoga practice? 🙋🏻‍♀️

I’ve had a lovely week off, but I’m ready to get back to it 💪

Let’s get back in a routine to benefit both body and mind 😌

If you’ve not been to a class with us before then don’t be shy! We are a lovely bunch with mixed abilities so come and join us at Harpur Hill Sports Centre.

Feeling a little overindulged? 🫠🫠🫠🙋🏻‍♀️

It’s great at the time isn’t it but I always feel like I’ve got a ‘food hangover’. All that sugar causes inflammation in the body so it’s no surprise! In Hatha we’ll be focusing on shifting toxins, with active poses including twists, but also a lovely pose that we can relax into to ‘unclench’ our digestive system.

In Yin yoga we’ll be doing what we always do really - doing less - but with purpose! 😅 What does this mean?? In yin we let our bodies be supported by props and cushions so we can really relax in a pose for 3-5 minutes. Relaxing the muscles, unsticking the fascia, creating space in painful joints and calming our minds.

If you’re not sure which class is for you, why not try both? You get one class free with the code ACCIDENTALFREEBIE anyway 🙌
Some of my regulars like to do both anyway 🙏

Feel free to drop me a comment or send me a message if you have any questions ☺️

It’s definitely starting to feel Spring like this week! Hooray! 🙌☀️🐥🌱🪻

As such, classes will be Spring based!
In Hatha this week we will practice our bunny hops forward from downward dog 🐰 and our balance somewhat resembles a coiled spring (tenuous link 😆)

In Yin, we’ll be relaxing into postures with our supported props so that we can release and grow 🌱

All classes are beginner friendly without the need to sign up to a course! If you have any questions do get in touch 🙏

Our themes for yoga classes this week! 🙌 All beginner friendly classes 🤗

In Hatha this week we’ll be opening the chest which often - but not always - means a back bend. Looking at alternatives you can do if you want to go easy or take it further. And of course the butt! Important in keeping a happy back so let’s work it! 💪

In Yin this week, we’ll be doing simple postures to allow your to release into the neck, shoulders and arms 😌

See you soon 🙏

Happy International Women’s Day yogis! 🙌

Without my cheerleaders of women encouraging me along my yoga teacher journey, I might not be here teaching you today! 😱 But with the support of you lovely lot lifting me up along the way, it was easy to keep going 🙌 I hope I’ve helped encourage you to, even if it’s simply a ‘nice balance!’ comment.

Thanks for another week of lovely classes 🙏

Hopefully no snow this week yogis! In fact there’s some actual sunshine out as I write this! 😍☀️

This weeks themes for classes…

💪 Hatha will focus on our Warrior poses. Simple poses and variations with many benefits! I’ve also got a new core exercise for you! 🍎

😌 Yin yoga will feature our beloved Mountain meditation tonight. Inspired by the changing seasons. We’ll have our usual floor based, relaxing postures to help us destress, create space, and gain flexibility.

Both classes are perfect for those new to yoga or if you’re an experienced yoga 🙏

Not tried yoga before, or maybe tried and not liked?
Do you know there’s lots of different types of yoga and lots of different type of people that teach it! It’s definitely something I’d always say shop around for to find your perfect fit! 🙏

What’s important is how it makes you feel both physically and mentally:
😌 You might be nervous going to your first class, but you should feel a sense of calm and accomplishment by the end
🦴 You should be able to follow your teacher even if that means taking alternative poses in the case of illness or injuries (please note: everyone feels a little lost in sun salutations at first 😅)
💪 You should notice some benefits! Whether that’s sleeping much better after class, or noticing that you’re getting stronger and more flexible
