Private yoga classes
Private yoga classes are tailored entirely to your needs and at a time and frequency to suit you. This can be useful when your schedule doesn’t allow for regular class attendance, to support a home practice, or to focus on and deepen a particular area of your practice.

Yoga therapy is the adaptation of yoga practices for people with health problems. Yoga Therapy is listed on The NHS Directory of Complementary and Alternative Practitioners and regulated by the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council.
