Hatha, Yin & Restorative Classes & Workshops in Beeston, Nottingham, classes both in person & on Zoom

29/03/2026

Mu upcoming workshop on Saturday 25th April 13:30-15:30 will be a Yin Yoga session encouraging inward focus, providing an opportunity to go a little “deeper” and explore what it means to let go of effort and ego.

Letting go of effort is often seen as counter intuitive in our modern day society, in which we are encouraged to strive, push and be the best, leading to a competitive, stressed and burnt out state of being.

However there is another way, the Daoists call this the ‘Wu Wei” or the path of effortless action. It doesn’t mean not doing, but rather doing while we are in “flow”, at peace and not so attached to the results.

This can be quite difficult for the Western Culture to appreciate, it is however a way in which we could find more comfort and authenticity.

During the workshop we will explore the concept of Wu Wei (using the Tao Te Ching) considering how we can adopt some of its principles, with the aid of pranayama (breath work), meditation and Yin postures.

The Elephant rooms is a beautiful space with mats, bolsters and blankets, feel free to bring your own.

Investment: £25 (booking details in the links above) or please email yvonnepatrickyoga@gmail.com for more information.

My first workshop of 2026 will be on Saturday 17th January 2-4pm on line.

An invitation to slow down, take a pause and rest, an opportunity to “Soothe & Settle” your Nervous System, the perfect way to start the New Year. In fact you could make this your intention for the next twelve months, start as you mean to go on.

January can be challenging for many of us. The festivities of Christmas are over and Spring seems such a long way off. Our Nervous systems are still wanting to hibernate which is actually the best thing for us, but often our commitments can make this difficult.

That’s where the practices of yoga are so beneficial as they can support us in times of transition and difficulty.

The afternoon will be a combination of Restorative type poses, Pranayama (breathing) & Meditation with the aim of encouraging deep relaxation.

The session will be on Zoom & available as a recording, so you don’t even need to leave the comfort of your own home.

As we commence the practice we will slowly take some gentle movements/stretches before relaxing in a series of Restorative postures with the aid of props such as bolsters, pillows and blankets.

The benefits these quieter practices are that we stop and have time to reconnect with ourselves drawing the attention inwards, & reducing stress.

My next Day Retreat will be all about Resilience in Yoga. It will be on Saturday 8th November 10-3 at the Elephant Rooms in which we will explore "Paths of Yoga" and their relevance to us today.

I love the fact that yoga provides so many tools and insights for supporting us in the "ups" and "downs" of life. It changes our perception from yoga being a weekly class to a lifelong practice.
Yoga is such a deep philosophy with so many limbs and paths to explore. From times when a physical session with lots of Asana (poses) is what's needed, to days when our needs may be quieter with more Meditation and stillness.

The more yoga allows us to reconnect with ourselves, the more we begin to tune into our needs. These practices develop our capacity for love and compassion towards ourselves and other beings, enabling us to be a little more resilient.

During the workshop we will delve a little deeper into Yogic Philosophy. Going beyond just the physical elements to explore broader concepts from the Bhagavad Gita and Patanjalis Sutras.

We will be focusing on the Paths (Margas) of Yoga of which there are four,
Karma the Yoga of Action, performing acts of kindness with love.
Bhakti the Yoga of Devotion, the ability to see the divine in all beings.
Raga the Yoga of Meditation, focusing the mind.
Jana the Yoga of Intellect and will in which we study and develop our minds.

Throughout the day by the use of Asana (yoga poses), Chanting , Pranayama (breath work) and Meditation we will demonstrate how these Paths of Yoga are still very relevant today. Through the richness these teachings building resilience and showing us how Yoga gives us the ability to have fulfilling, enriched lives.

The morning will be an active Hatha Practice followed by an afternoon of Yin Yoga after a break for lunch.

Investment: £45 available via the link above.

Just a few days to go until my day retreat this Saturday 10-3 at the Elephant Rooms in Draycott. The focus of the day will be on Joy and how to get more of it in our lives using our Yoga practices.

These days are always a joy to teach.
If you cannot attend the full day there is the option in the booking link to come for either the morning or afternoon only.
So if you could do with a little more joy in your life come and join us.

My dog Paddy certainly knows how to get his daily dose of Joy!

Sometimes we want even our Yin practice to be a little slower and softer, especially when we may be struggling a little in the heat with fatigue or lack of sleep.

Over the last week or so I've found that this has been the case in my classes, not all of us will be energised by the sun so it's always important to check in with what you need.
This morning we used the wall as a prop, in tonights class we will do a lot of reclining always followed by a nourishing shavasana.

The main thing is to listen to your body, it will tell you what you need 🙏

I'm really looking forward to my upcoming workshop which will be a full day session on Saturday the 5th July from 10am -3pm at the Elephant Rooms in Draycott.

This will be an immersive yoga experience focused on something we all hold within us — Joy. Whether we call it happiness, contentment (Santosa), or that inner glow that lights us up, this workshop will guide us into finding ways of reconnecting with that spark.

We'll explore how joy arises from within — not from external circumstances — through the powerful lens of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and the inner practices of yoga including asana, meditation and pranayama.

🧘‍♀️ Morning Session:
A heart-opening Hatha flow to energise and awaken the body — designed to challenge and uplift us.

🌿 Lunch Break:
Relax in the peaceful outdoor space at The Elephant Rooms. Tea and coffee will be available — just bring your own lunch and enjoy a mindful pause in nature.

🧘‍♂️ Afternoon Session:
We continue the theme with a nourishing Yin yoga practice to soften and soothe, incorporating Meditation and Pranayama to support emotional balance and encourage a joyful state.

✨ Open to those with some yoga experience (not suitable for complete beginners).
✨ Mats, blankets, and props available, or feel free to bring your own.
✨ Booking essential via Bookwhen (link in bio) or email yvonnepatrickyoga@gmail.com for more info.

Lovely practice last night in the garden of the in which we focused on the rhythms of nature and the fact that we are made up of both Yin & Yang energies. So appropriate to remember as we head into the Solstice.

What could be better than practicing in nature, listening to the birds, trees and water? 🙏
