This is a gentle and deeply relaxing class. A real treat for body and mind! No previous experience necessary. 

With over 30 years experience of teaching Yoga, Pilates, Movement and Meditation, I have now designed this class with focus on releasing tension in both body and mind. 

The class consists of

Restorative Yoga Postures - relaxing postures/positions where you simply relax and let go. Everyone can do these postures.

Gentle Stretching and Limbering - easy movements to improve mobility.

Fascia Release - gentle and specific movements to release tension and stiffness in face, neck, shoulders, back, hips, arms, hands, legs and feet. 

Gentle Breathing Exercises - very simple breathing exercises to move away from upper chest breathing to diaphragmatic breathing. 

Deep Guided Relaxation - a lovely deep relaxation at the end of the class.

With all exercises and movements you work within your own ability. You will never strain or push beyond your limits. I will be guiding you in each exercise and helping you to find a comfortable and correct position that works for you.

I love Rose-Marie’s classes. I always come away feeling relaxed and calm, I sleep better and my tension headaches melt away." Estelle

"The restorative yoga with Rose-Marie has been so beneficial as part of my wellbeing journey. It helps me to release and heal parts of my body that have stored emotions and helped me to relax more and to heal emotionally and physically. It is the most relaxing part of my week and I absolutely recommend this class to everyone as part of their self-care routine." Tanya

"I have known Rose-Marie as an incredible yoga teacher for over 10 years. I love her style of teaching and feel very safe in all her classes. I am truly grateful for her online and zoom classes, so I can still participate. Wendy

A class that brings calm, balance and release of tight muscles and stress." Tracey

"The restorative yoga is unlike any other class locally and I really enjoy the mix of familiar exercises and new movements each term. It makes such a difference to my emotional wellbeing and I love this time of my week"– Hannah

"This class isn't one you have to worry about making the effort for if you're feeling tired, because you are working in such a gentle and relaxed way you don't even realise you are working. It is a safe haven of space just for myself after a busy working week, and provides an outlet for me to focus on my posture, release of tension and a feeling of nurture. The relaxing and meditative nature of the class allows you to drift in and out of poses in a natural way, not forced or strained. Rose-Marie gives such good direction and explanations about each movement and a detailed knowledge of what you are trying to achieve and its benefits. The guided meditation at the end of the is the perfect way to finish, leaving you relaxed and peaceful after focusing on just yourself." Karen
