Yoga is the perfect antidote to the stresses and busyness of modern life. It can strengthen the body, improve flexibility and range of motion whilst clearing the mind and helping relaxation and sleep. It's all good!

Yoga For Modern Life provides group yoga classes, pregnancy yoga, private yoga sessions on a one to one basis, workshops and retreats in York and surrounding areas. This is friendly and welcoming yoga for everyone - regardless of fitness level, age, shape or size. For experienced yoga practitioner or total beginners - everyone is welcome.

Rooted in traditions of yoga, but also blending that with more modern body and mind practices, interplaying mindfulness, somatic movement and simply movement that feels good in your body. My classes combine postures and movement with a strong emphasis on the breath, combined in a mindful and heart felt way and always ending with a relaxation for body and mind. The yoga I guide you through is about opening your body and calming the mind. It helps you breathe better, move better and feel better.

Also specialising in Fertility Yoga, Pregnancy Yoga and Mum & Baby Yoga. Yoga For Modern Life ensures that your journey towards and during motherhood is richly enhanced by nourishing your body, your mind and your baby.  As well as teaching Hypnobirthing & Antenatal Courses too, find out more on the Hypnobirthing classes page here. I also teach Baby Massage classes - a beautiful way to connect to and calm your baby with so many benefits for baby, and for parents too.

In a busy world, take some time to reconnect with yourself. I look forward to meeting you soon.

Susan
