Saturday Yoga for Queers
1.15 hours in the park
Practices from the wider yoga tradition:
āsana (postures)
prāṇāyāma (breath practices)
mantrā (aloud, whispered, or silent)
hasta mudrā (hand gestures/visualisations)
Seasonal themes guided by Ayurvedic wisdom (supporting physical, mental and emotional needs)
If the weather is bad, we meet online instead via Jitsi:

Because yoga is so much more than poses.

💜 Who this space is for
This space is open to all Queers regardless of caste, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, body type or ability 🧚🏾♂️🧞♀️🦹🏿. I strive to create an inclusive and accessible space and deeply value your feedback – what works, what doesn’t, what you need more of. Direct, honest feedback is welcome.
I have completed a trauma‑informed course. I do not hold a clinical qualification, but I aim to apply trauma‑informed principles to the best of my knowledge, knowing that everyone’s trauma is unique. Your reflections help me better curate the practice for you.
