Yoga Over 45

Feel fitter, stronger, for longer

How might yoga help you feel better as you age?

At 72, and practising yoga for over half a century, 
I KNOW yoga can help us stay strong, keep our mobility and reduce stress!

Totally new and a bit nervous?

Why not try the 6 week Absolute Beginner Programmes I run 5 times a year. Next sets start week commencing 4th September at Bawtry and Tickhill, as well as regular day time classes (which run most of the year) for beginners too - so don't let never having done yoga before put you off! (See below)

The truth is, getting older does NOT need to mean getting stiffer, weaker, heavier OR sicker. 

Any student of mine who's been to my classes knows my mantra is: I might have to accept growing old. I'm darned if I will acccept growing infirm!  

In my 72nd  year I know that taking care of our bodies as we age doesn't have to be that hard - and after over 50 years of practise I know yoga can really make a positive difference to  your strength, flexibility, your energy and just feeling good  - and I'd like to share and inspire others to take control of their health and well-being as they age too..  

So....whether you're a fit and active 40 something who wants to stay that way or you feel you're losing some of your strength, flexibility and energy in recent months,  I'm here to tell you yoga can help you stay active, have more energy and feel fitter and I'd love to show you how!

WHATEVER you want to do in your life, 
Yoga over 45 is ALL about helping you stay fit enough to do it!

 BEGINNER 6 WEEK COURSE

 

All classes will help you:

  • Build back strength and muscle which are VITAL as we age.
  • Prevent or reduce stiffness and back or joint pain. 
  • Improve your balance.
  • De-stress, unwind and feel calmer. (And these days - that's a biggie!)
  • Improve your flexibility and core strength - particularly in your core. (It will also minimise the risk of injury & improve flexibility if you enjoy more strenuous sports.)
  • Tone your muscles.
  • Lose weight - but more mindfully.
  • If you are under 45 (lucky you!) but feel intimidated by vigorous yoga styles or have health issues which  would benefit from a gentler approach then these courses or classes might be a better fit for you. 

No tying yourself in knots! No feeling out of place. No competition to see who can bend the most or feeling like you're surrounded by 20 somethings who are looking for a gym-style workout! 

Instead, a relaxed approach; which allows you to move at your own pace, yet challenges you to improve your current fitness level, and takes account of the whole you - not just your physical health; but your mental and emotional health too. 

One of my favourite mentors, Jim Rohn said:
"Take care of your body: it's the only place you have to live."
I believe that's true and I believe yoga will help you take care of your body well into your later years.

You can do nothing about your age
But you can affect HOW you age.

Yoga can have a significant and powerfully positive impact on your health! Even 15 minutes a day can make a difference, so if you're "feeling your age" in any way at all -  yoga can help.
