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.
In 2010, we are offering a yoga holiday in Yuva, Turkey and two weekend retreats at Barmoor on the North York Moors - see Holidays and Workshops pages.
Have a look at Yuva on this audio slideshow by Guardian columnist Kevin Rushby:
