Yoga teaches people to take slower, deeper breathes. This helps improve lung function and triggers the body’s relaxation response.

Practising Yoga helps detox the body. When you stretch the muscles, you massage the internal organs, rinsing toxins from the body. Your energy levels are boosted straight away.

What Our Yogis Say

I have been attending Annmarie Coote's yoga class for many years now. It is the perfect way to start a working week. Annmarie's calm, relaxed manner, along with her excellent communication skills, settles my very being. Annmarie varies her sequences of positions each week, making sure all the muscle groups are worked and she always has alternatives for people with different abilities. I would and have recommended her classes to anyone who wants to experience the benefits of yoga.

As an elderly person who has arthritis in my lower back and some joints, I found most exercise difficult.

                  I joined Annmarie's "gentle yoga "class a number of years ago. It has helped my condition enormously, My flexibility has improved, the stiffness I had experienced before with the arthritis has improved also, this is so much better for both my physical and mental health .Yoga is a great help for people with disabilities.

                 Annmarie is very aware of each person’s capabilities and never pushes her students beyond them. I have found Annmarie to be a very caring, supportive and creative teacher,
