Saturday Pregnancy Course with Jess
We were asked us to launch a weekend pregnancy class: and we are happy to say that Jess Wallwork is now teaching a Saturday lunchtime antenatal class at Yogawest starting this Saturday 4th November.
We need some more numbers to get this course off the ground: do you know anyone who may like to come?

On Sunday, the Family Yoga Class is an occasional 45-minute class for the whole family to come together, stretch, experiment and have some fun. It’s on this Sunday, taught by Diana and you all are invited.

Therapeutic & Pranayama Course #3 with Lydia Holmes
For this series of monthly Sunday afternoon workshops, Lydia Holmes, Lizzie Biggin and Edgar Stringer have designed a course of therapeutic programmes specifically for those with particular ailments, starting with a 4-session course for lower back issues. A pranayama class follows each workshop.
This series is also recommended for teachers and trainees. It’s possible to come to each session individually.
Each therapeutic workshop will be followed by a pranayama class.
