YOGA WITH JO
'Harmonising body mind and heart'

Come and discover the health and wellbeing benefits of yoga in a relaxed and friendly class. Suitable for beginners and intermediate levels.

Yoga is an ancient, holistic and non competitive system consisting of various exercises [asanas] which are performed slowly and meditatively and combined with breath awareness. Yoga helps tone the muscles without straining them, promotes healthy blood flow, combacts fatigue, balances the neuro-endocrine system, stabilizes emotions and reduces stress. Thus the physical body is flexed and strengthed, the mind is stilled and the emotions are balanced and calmed.

I am a Registered General Nurse and certified Massage and Aromatherapist who has been practising Yoga for 10 yrs. My first yoga classes were taken on the beach in Byron bay, Australia and I quickly felt yoga's benefits.  I spent 3yrs practicing at the Iyengar Yoga school in Auckland New Zealand, Hatha Yoga in Dorset and for the last 3 years I have practised Ashtanga yoga and Core strength yoga with Paul Fox in Somerset.  My classes will reflect the variety of yoga styles that I have experienced and enjoy.
I cannot over emphasise the holistic benefits and pleasure that I have gain from yoga and I hope to encourage you to discover these benefits on your own yoga journey.
