This class uses flowing sequences (such as sun salutations) transitioning from the floor to standing at times within one breath, making it more challenging than my Hatha Yoga classes. The class also includes a few Pilates exercises to find a balance between flexibility and stability. Although a physical class, the range of motion is achievable for most people, because options are given; also, the class includes corpse pose at the end, so that you leave feeling relaxed.
Benefits include: increased flexibility, increased joint stability, increased strenngth and endurance, improved balance and posture, reduced joint and muscular pain, increased energy levels, reduced stress and anxiety, feelings of relaxatio.

I started working in the fitness industry in October 2007, after completing a Health and Fitness Diploma at Kidderminster College; I began working in the gym as a fitness instructor at The Wyre Forest Glades Leisure Centre in Kidderminster. Whilst working at the Glades I completed various fitness courses and started teaching group classes in addition to one-on-one Personal Training.
I gained my yoga qualification in 2011. At this time, I was still working at the Glades, but not full time—because I'd set up several classes on a self-employed basis. Towards the end of 2011 I went self-employed full time, working as a group exercise instructor, which is still my current 'job'—I'm still loving it!
I teach 6 different class types: Hatha Yoga, Flow Yoga and Pilates, Modern Pilates, Tai Chi for Beginners, Yang Style Tai Chi and Active Seniors.
