It’s a brave thing stepping into a yoga class for the first time. So thanks to all who attended.
It’s a new class and numbers are small, but it’s growing. Now’s the time to be brave.
I’m really proud of launching a men only space for yoga. We need it. I teach a physical style of yoga that adapts to a wide range of abilities – so long and you can get down and up from the floor a few times, you are good enough. I use equipment to make up for the things we can’t yet do and my teaching style is hands on – small adjustments that make a massive difference.
I was a yoga teacher before I became a physio and I teach yoga with the knowledge of both.

Challenge – Day Two
Jan 2, 2023All mic’d up…let’s see how this works 😁✊🏾
Yesterday was connecting the pelvic tilt to the switch on of the lower tummy muscles and finding that in all the poses. Today, it’s finding tadasana in all asana. Then extending that to life…find tadasana at the bus stop, on standing up from your chair, sitting at your pc…
Day 2
Our starter for ten 😊
Savasana here. Or meditation below

Yoga Challenge – Day One
Jan 1, 2023Happy New Year, everyone! Thank you for all your support in 2022. It has been an eventful year. 2023 bodes well – there’s optimism in the air, for sure.
Let the challenge begin – ten minutes every day. Once you’re on your mat, if you’re enjoying it, keep going. There’s a link below to savasana (shavasana) or a seated meditation finish. Enjoy.
Day One
There’s one movement / connection / link that I want you to really connect with in this ten minutes – then try and find it in all your yoga practice (and activate it in everyday life). It’s a slight posterior pelvic tilt, this connected to switching on your lower tummy (deep muscles) via a gentle lift of the pelvic floor…I’ll show you.
Finish with a seated meditation (if time and inclination). Or savasana below.

First class plan of September
Sep 14, 2022Great to see everyone who could make it tonight. I enjoyed teaching it and it seemed everyone got something out of it.
Here’s the class plan – feel free to use it if you want to do some yoga through the week. I use a class plan as a framework and respond to what happens in the room – so there’s always deviations (as you’d hope for). The square brackets denote omissions. I’m open to requests for future classes.
Namaste (n’all) 😊

Congratulations everyone on getting on your mat
Apr 11, 2021
Whatever you got done through the challenge, or didn’t get done – if you’ve spent some time on your mat in March, you’ve done well. Congratulations. If its taken you into April to finish it, even more congratulations on your tenacity too.
For many of us, it’s natural to go straight to the negative. I do. Ignore the peaks, get stuck in the troughs. It’s important that we take the time and acknowledge the success.
Have you reflected on how you feel compared to the start? Stronger, perhaps around the hips and back? Are you moving more readily, and perhaps see the start of better balance? The good thing about yoga, is you can always work to your maximum whether you are fit already, or are returning to fitness. Whatever level you are at, it has something to offer you.
I hope you enjoyed my teaching. I also hope you’ve enjoyed being taught by someone who’s clearly not a gymnast.

Day 23
Mar 22, 2021Companion
For most people (including me), back bends need a bit of preparation. If this was a 90min class, we’d do 45min preparing for a 20min back bend section. Below is more that preparation than the straight companion piece I’ve done before. If you’re new, start here. If you’re familiar with backbends and have time: start here. Take the time to open the chest up to get the most out of the coming back bend fundamental F23.

Continuing straight on, with that lovely, open chest.
