Susan Hope Yoga Susan Hope Yoga: Stretch and Breathe Yoga for Beginners Where Everybody is Welcome

I’m Susan, and I believe it’s never too late to start your yoga journey.

I’m Susan, a Hatha yoga teacher offering stretch-and-breathe yoga for beginners, using my experience in Special Educational Needs teaching to create a calm space in a busy world 🌿 With a lifetime of teaching experience as a Special Educational Needs teacher, I hope to create a welcoming and supportive environment for your practise. I began practicing yoga in my 50s after my children left home, seeking a new form of exercise. My first class left me feeling uplifted and peaceful, and I was hooked. Now, as a yoga teacher, I am passionate about helping others experience the benefits of yoga in an approachable and rewarding way. Why Choose Susan Hope Yoga?
🌟 Perfect for Beginners: My classes are designed for those who are new to yoga, making the practice easy to follow and enjoyable.
🌟 A Peaceful Escape: Yoga offers a moment of calm in a busy world, helping to balance the mind and body while nurturing your well-being.
🌟 Experienced and Supportive Teacher: My extensive teaching background helps me guide students with patience and clarity, ensuring everyone feels confident as they learn. What to Expect in a Class? I teach Hatha yoga, a style that blends energizing and calming elements to create balance. A typical one-hour session includes:
✔️ Grounding exercises to feel present and at ease
✔️ Breathwork to connect mind and body
✔️ Gentle warm-ups to mobilize joints and muscles
✔️ A mix of physical postures (asanas), held individually or in a flow
✔️ Counterposes to restore balance
✔️ Relaxation to absorb the benefits of the practice

Why Yoga? Yoga has been a steady presence in my life, providing me with a sense of purpose, connection, and fulfilment. It has supported me through life’s challenges and introduced me to wonderful people and experiences. Whether you’re looking to relieve stress, develop flexibility, build strength, or find a sense of calm, Susan Hope Yoga offers a supportive environment for you to start your yoga journey.

A big thank you to everyone who supported our recent fundraising yoga session in Kintbury.

Whether you attended the class, made a donation, purchased one of the lavender eye pillows, or some of the cakes and biscuits afterwards, every contribution helped.

I’m excited to share that, together, we’ve raised £312 for Daisy’s Dream, a wonderful charity supporting children through bereavement.

It’s amazing to see how a small yoga session can have such a positive impact, and it wouldn’t have been possible without your kindness and support .

Thank you

January often comes with a lot of pressure to change everything at once.
But what if this year you chose something kinder, something you do for yourself, and something you could imagine still doing well beyond the first few weeks… into 2026.
If you’re looking for a gentle, sustainable way to support your body and mind, my gentle yoga for beginners class might be just right.

This time between Christmas and New Year can feel like a pause.

The busyness has eased, the days are quieter, and there’s a little more space to breathe, stretch, and gently come back to yourself.

If you’ve been thinking about:
• starting yoga for the first time
• returning after a break
• or finding something calm and kind rather than intense

Then my Gentle Yoga for Beginners classes at The Old Bluecoats School Thatcham might be just right for you.

Classes are small and friendly (maximum 10 people) — supportive, unhurried, and with no need to be “good at yoga”.

Your first class is a free taster, so you can come along and see if it feels right for you. After that, classes are £10 each. Due to the limited space , drop-ins aren’t available.

If this quieter moment feels like a good time to begin (or begin again), you’d be very welcome.

Restorative Yoga at Streatley Primary School

I had the pleasure of leading a super relaxing restorative yoga session last night at Streatley Primary School, and it was such a lovely way to unwind together.
The hall was all set up with mats , blocks and eye pillows, plus a little gift bag for everyone. Soft fairy lights, a twinkling Christmas tree and gentle music created the perfect atmosphere.
It felt like the perfect pre-Christmas pause .A chance to step out of the hurly-burly of the season.
It was wonderful to see everyone ; some parents, local residents and the headteacher! Everyone settled in straight away and the session was received so warmly.
Thank you to everyone who joined me , your energy made the evening truly special.
