Creating times in the week, whether it is an hour’s class, a 2-hour weekend workshop or the luxury of a longer retreat day, not only helps us to refocus, rather more, it supports our efforts to maintain our equilibrium.

The potent combination of movement, mindful awareness, and engagement with active relaxation, helps us to maintain a sense of balance in mind & body and strengthens our connections with others on a similar journey.  The Barn is a special place for relaxation and therapeutic movement, whether you are joining us on Zoom or managing to come to a studio class or workshop, everyone is united in their appreciation of the sense of calm and ‘good vibes’ which radiate form the space here.

We hope therefore, that you will be as excited as we are, to have a look below at the details of our new autumn & winter schedule of yoga workshops and our new courses and retreat days on offer next year.
