6-Week Yoga Courses For Every Body​
SundAYS | 11 am - 12.15 pm ​
Slow down, rest and reconnect with inclusive yoga for all bodies
Course details
Classes are kept small and welcoming, with a maximum of 8 people. No previous experience of yoga is needed.
​
Across 6 weeks, you’ll be introduced to yogic breathing, gentle poses, meditation and ways to connect breath with movement. We’ll focus on easing into stretches through letting go and using the breath rather than relying on effort.
​
As the group grows in confidence, we’ll explore some more complex poses, always adapting them to each individual body. Sessions are guided with a “zero pressure, less is more” approach.
​
The course closes with a focus on finding balance between effort and relaxation.
​
​The course will only go ahead with a minimum of 4 bookings, so please book early to secure your place.
WHAT?
​This gentle and supportive course is designed to help you slow down. Perfect if you’re new to yoga, returning after a break, or simply looking for a calmer practice. You’ll build confidence with the basics and will never be asked to do a move that doesn’t feel right for you.
WHo?
These yoga sessions are for EVERY BODY but we especially welcome folks in fat bodies, super fat bodies, infinifat bodies, queer, trans and gender non conforming bodies, Black and Brown bodies, older bodies, disabled bodies and anyone who feels more comfortable in body diverse spaces.

Hi I’m Janice (they/them) a body positive, fat friendly yoga teacher
I have over 30 years of yoga experience in Classical Hatha Yoga in the Sivananda tradition which I have been teaching for 20 years. More recently in my own practice I have been exploring yoga for deep rest and healing, namely Restorative Yoga, Accessible Yoga and Yoga Nidra which have had a huge influence on my offerings as well.
Because I have fibromyalgia which is a hidden disability, and because I am fat I don’t at all fit the usual image of the acrobatic, thin, white, bendy, physically fit yoga teacher/practitioner despite over 30 years of yoga practice. In fact I am actively committed to working against that false representation and in my teaching practice I actively reach out to students who also do not fit this stereotype.
I love supporting people via yoga through transitional life phases and conditions such as menopause, chronic fatigue, burnout, fibromyalgia, ageing, addiction recovery, pregnancy, gender transition, weight gain, grief, emotional recovery from abortion or miscarriage, depression, illness and injury, to name a few. Yoga can be a powerfully supportive and profoundly gentle tool for everyone as we navigate society, capitalism, our own body, health, loss and life.
