About the yoga

The yoga session consists of relaxation and breathing exercises which require no movement at all and some gentle postures which require physical movement (optional). Participants are encouraged to keep within their own limits. Much of the time is spent lying down but there may be a little sitting. Participants are welcome to come and only do the breathing and relaxation exercises if they don’t feel up to doing any physical movements.

About the teachers

The teachers are all experienced in therapeutic yoga. The main teacher, Linda Su Arnold, formerly Linda Sole, specialises in remedial yoga and has taught yoga for people with ME and CFS at the Yoga for Health Foundation.

We are pleased to say we now have two additional teachers, Pam Horn and Francis Homewood, who are able to take classes occasionally. More details below.
