It’s all about the balance - Hatha Yoga

Bring some balance back into your life with our next wellbeing session – Hatha Yoga!

In Sanskrit, Hatha translates to force and balance, and this practice dates back to the 1st Century in ancient texts. In this early morning session, we will bring the calming and stress-relieving benefits to combat the strains of the modern world.

Samantha will lead you through a series of poses designed to bring balance back into your everyday life. Starting with a gentle warm-up, she will guide your physical and breathing work to improve balance, flexibility and strength, before ending with a short period of meditation.

All levels are welcome, from complete beginners to experienced practitioners.

You will need the following:

• A laptop or screen large enough to see Samantha
• A yoga mat or towel/blanket
• A clear space to practice, free of obstacles and (if possible!) interruptions
• A bottle of water

Give yourself plenty of time to set up, log on and get comfortable before the class starts.

Due to the interactivity of the event, places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
