Dear Friends and Family of York Yoga Studio,
It has been over a year since anything was posted on this page, and I apologise for my long silence. I often think of our community with love and gratitude - sharing in your yoga journeys has been one of the most rewarding things in my life.
It’s been a busy year for me. In October 2024 I had surgery for bowel cancer. It was caught early through routine screening, so treatment was quick and thorough. I am pleased to say that I am fully recovered.
So I’ve been a bit distracted and have neglected my Facebook presence. I want to say that I am well and I am happy. I still offer an *All Levels Hatha class ONLINE ONLY on Wednesdays at 6pm.* I’m not offering anything in person now, and really do love our online group!
You would be welcome to join us; either book a block or drop-in ticket at Bookwhen: https://bookwhen.com/yorkyoga.
You may have noticed that I no longer have a website! If you used to book through the website, please make a note of the new booking address.
In an event, it is a privilege to be a member of this community, and I will honour that by posting my voice on this page.
With Love and Gratitude,
Laurie

Online Classes return 8th January 2025 - https://mailchi.mp/77e8c405abfc/online-classes-return-8th-january-2025 We are back! It feels like it's been forever and I can't wait to see you all on your mats 😀. ONLINE classes start Wednesday 8th January at 6pm and Friday 19th January at 12 noon. These last 3 months have been a time of rest and recovery for me, and I cannot tell you how grateful I am for my health and well being, and how eager I am to share my return to my yoga practice with you all. Please have a look at the newsletter for booking details. 💝🙏

  Happy New Year!  I hope you have all had a peaceful and joyful break at the end of 2024, and are looking forward to 2025 with optimism and enthusiasm 😊. I’m really glad to see the back of last year; as you know I had some health issues in the autumn and so we had a rather extended break.  ...

Autumn Term 2024 - https://mailchi.mp/65039071e626/autumn-term-2024
Oops! You may have noticed that we have not put the Autumn Term on Bookwhen just yet... Don't worry, we have just been delayed a few weeks and we promise we'll be back soon 😊. Please read on for more information....

Dear friends and fellow yogis, I hope you all had a wonderful summer ! It was late starting, but when it finally arrived it was gorgeous .  Mine was productive but also full of surprises. As a wise man once said, the best laid plans of mice and men (and I'm sure he meant to add yogis) go oft awry, ...

I always loved attending Laura's Writing for Wellbeing workshops at our York studio - and now she's able to offer some free places to carers or marginalized writers in her next Online workshops in September. If you, or anyone you know, could use the place it will be a great experience. Please share!
And even if you don't need the free place, you could come anyway for a lovely couple of hours of creativity and wellbeing. I'm hoping to attend one of them myself!

Still taking applications (just a few words, easy to do) for the 5 free places in my September Online Feel Good Writing workshops!
Author Kit de Waal is generously sponsoring 5 places for carers or marginalized writers in my upcoming online workshop Feel Good Writing (8 or 14 Sept). Details of how to apply for a place here: https://www.writingforwellbeing.co.uk/therapy-and-workshops/
Please share!

Hope you've all had a gorgeous summer! Just to let you know we're going to be starting the autumn term just a little later than I'd thought. I'll be sure to keep you posted about our revised starting date very soon. Thanks so much for your yogic patience.
Meanwhile here's a bear doing yoga to inspire your home practice. 😄 🤣 ❤

Wishing you all a lovely rest of the summer. I've seen you all shining in our yoga classes every week as you find your path to personal wellbeing and balance, and know this will help you both spread the light and be the light. Have a great summer! See you again in September.

Last week of online classes before our summer break. We're still practicing classic asanas so you'll be well grounded to keep doing some yoga on your own during the summer. (You are going to keep doing self-practice, aren't you?😀🧘) We'll be doing a variety poses which may include sun salutations, balances, rotations, forward folds, back extensions and strength work. Come to the classes and find out which ones!
