On one of the hottest weekends in Edinburgh I spent the weekend in a community hall learning about the human body. It was a great weekend, full of information and helpful tips and I met some lovely people. The challenge now is retaining some of the info and weaving it into my teaching, although some of you have already experienced that in the Mon / Tue classes 😊

Thanks to Doctor Yogi for running the training and keeping everyone engaged over the weekend. A special thanks to my friend Davina from Lotus Flower Yoga and Meditation who highlighted Dr Yogi to me and is always full of useful information and tips.

Here's a wee photo of me, Bob (the skeleton) and Dr Yogi himself 😃

No classes this Saturday as I'm attending a training weekend over in Edinburgh. I'll be busy studying whilst you are all enjoying the sunshine 😕

Dr Andrew McGonigle is a medically trained doctor and yoga teacher. He now uses a combination of both to teach anatomy and physiology to yoga teachers. I think it will be a fascinating weekend and hopefully I'll come back with lots of tips for my teaching 🙏🧘

Monday/Tuesday classes are unaffected. Have a good weekend 😊

Today is the summer solstice where we celebrate the day of the year with the longest daylight hours. At class this morning we practiced some sun salutations although not 108 of them!

Hope you have a lovely solstice and a restful Sunday 🧘

I've been a bit quiet on here lately as I have been reviewing/reassessing my classes. A few more things planned for later in the year but for the moment I'm taking a few days off to visit family.

I saw this post on another page and thought it was very apt 😊

A little reminder of the new Chair Class I'm running at Headwell Bowling Club. Although there are only a couple of weeks left in this block it's a perfect opportunity to pop along and try out the class before the next block starts in June.

Drop me a message if you fancy coming along 🧘

06/05/2025

For those of you who have been watching the progress in the club. The sports bar is complete and I believe will be open Sat / Sun. There will be a relaxed social event on the 18th May for those who are interested. I might even pop along myself 😊

I hope you are all making the most of the sunshine today 😊

This is what working from home looks like for me these days. My beautiful new deck of Oracle cards have arrived and I'll be delving into their meanings a bit later.

Also not long started the fascinating book on breath, for all those mouth breathers out there it's worth a read !

Happy hump day 😃

A day full of teaching yesterday, my usual class in the morning and then my Spring workshop in the afternoon. Once again I forgot to take any photographic evidence but the students were there and we covered a lot in a few short hours 😊

🧘We opened the practice with a little qi gong sequence about managing boundaries, acknowledging we need to look after ourselves before we can help others.
🧘We then literally had a walk around the room, focussing on postures and the movement of feet in ankles on the ground. We then went onto practice, standing balancing and floor poses with awareness of the importance of the feet in each of the poses.
☕Time for tea and flapjacks
🧘We then took time for a little self care, massaging the feet and talking about key reflexology points
🧘Then came the breathing practices, alternate nostril breathing to clear the nose and bring clarity to our intentions
🧘The breath work was followed by a long relaxation to visualise the best version of ourselves and to set intentions moving forward
🧘To close everyone chose an Oracle card and reflected on what it meant to them.

A lovely afternoon with a great bunch of ladies! I was tired last night though 😴....a lazy Sunday for me today 😊

Here's a photo of my centrepiece adorned with a few extra bees and daffodils to brighten things up.

Have a lovely Sunday 🙏

I can't believe it's now almost 18 months since I set up my first chair class. Thanks to the dedication and loyalty of my students they have grown with me on the journey and now practice standing and balancing poses too 😃🧘

Due to the success of the above class I'm now going to trial a fully seated class for those that might not be feeling as confident in their yoga journey. This class will start after Easter and there's the option to come along early to the club for tea, coffee and biscuits for the bargain price of £1.

Feel free to share with anyone who you think might be interested and drop me a message to book 🙏
