The practise of Yoga dates back over 5000 years to India. Its aim is to develop an integrated control of mind and body that leads to mental, spiritual and physical health and well-being.

Stressed out executives enjoy Yoga for its calming, meditative and stress relieving nature. Athletes use it to improve stamina and flexibility. Seniors maintain muscle strength without fear of injury. Students use it to improve concentration. It is used to aid specific conditions such as asthma or epilepsy.

Most classes focus on postures and breathing. Yoga is practised in a relaxed, non-competitive environment, and it isn't high-impact.

The only equipment you need for Yoga is comfortable clothing. Everyone can benefit from Yoga, so get down to your nearest centre and give it a try!
