Yoga is a path to health and happiness. With mindfulness as its cornerstone, yoga brings physical vitality, mental harmony and profound inner peace.
Hatha yoga has four main aspects: a positive approach to life, asana or physical postures, pranayama or breathwork, and meditation.
At yogaCo we hope to lead you to increased well being by combining these four aspects in our classes, workshops and retreats. If you are pregnant or have just had a baby, we have specialised classes adapted to meet your needs. If you are trying to conceive, we offer personalised practice plans based on the Yin Yoga method. We also teach private classes for those who prefer one-on-one sessions. Call or email for details.
NEW CLASS Thursdays 5.45 - 7pm at Clements Hall, Nunthorpe Road (opposite Scarcroft School), York YO23 1BW. For beginners and improvers - see below for details.
In 2010, as well as weekly classes, we are offering a yoga holiday in Yuva, Turkey and two weekend retreats at Barmoor on the North York Moors, and two Yin and Yang Workshops - see Holidays and Workshops pages.

Yin and Yang Yoga Workshop
Saturday 27 November 9.30 am - 1.30 pm
St Columba's Church Hall, Priory St, York
Yin yoga is the practice of unhurried, unambitious floor poses which rejuvenate and energise us, cultivating inner focus and quietude. Yang yoga is dynamic and flowing, bringing strength and stability, grace and balance, agility and alignment. The practice of mindfulness meditation leads us to a deeper connection with ourselves and compassion for others.
Cost: £20. Please bring a small snack, your mat and blocks.
To book, please send a cheque for £20 to Sophie Carr, 24 Richardson St, York YO23 1JU, with your details. For more information, call 07811 950938 or email info@yogaco.co.uk
