Pranayama
SUNDAY 25 MAY, 6.30-8PM
Jenny-May While
Join our May Pranayama class to nourish, calm and enliven.
Pranayama is the yogic art of breathing and is partner to asana (posture). It is highly recommended for those who have practised asana regularly for some time.
“Breath is the vehicle of consciousness and so, by its slow measured observation and distribution, we learn to tug our attention away from external desires toward a judicious, intelligent awareness.” – B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on Life
£12 (10% discount for concessions)
Suitable for regular students of 2 years or more
WORKSHOP: BEGINNER-LEVEL
SATURDAY 31 MAY, 12-2.30PM
Jenny-May While
Our Beginner-Level workshop is a great opportunity to explore some of the familiar poses and sequences from classes in more detail.
This will be a spacious and enlivening afternoon of synthesis of body, mind and breath, specially designed for those with some class experience as an introduction to longer-form workshop scenarios.
It’s like doing a regular class over a longer time- with plenty of breathing space!
£25 (10% discount available for concessions)

GUEST TEACHER: Edgar Stringer
Saturday 14 & Sunday 15 June
Edgar Stringer
Join Edgar for an exploration, through āsana, of how the practise of yoga provides a framework for meeting challenges on and off the mat– how the balance of action and stillness allows us to inhabit the present.
Edgar runs the wonderful Corsham Yogatree with his wife Lydia Holmes, where we’ve enjoyed reciprocal guest teacher workshops.
Returning to Hereford Yoga Centre, Edgar brings a wealth of experience and knowledge that are not to be missed. Teaching since 1997, Edgar is a qualified Level 3 senior teacher and mentors and assesses for IYUK.

Women’s Health WORKSHOP SERIES
SATURDAY 6 SEPTEMBER, 2-5PM
Jenny-May While
Join us for a special workshop series on Women’s Health (6 September, 8 November, third date TBC).
In her seminal work ‘Yoga: A Gem for Women’, Geeta Iyengar says ‘Woman has to pay a high price physically and physiologically for her role of mother, [partner], sister, friend. Stabilisation of the physical and mental states is achieved by āsana and prānāyāma. Her salvation lies in practising them’.
Working within Geeta Iyengar’s legacy and lineage, we’ll be exploring yoga in relation to 3 important stages of a woman’s life:
Menstruation
Peri-menopause
Menopause
We will find out how yoga can help to regulate, stabilise and celebrate the hormonal cycles that bring about these major physiological changes. We will discuss real-life symptoms and the day-to-day joys and challenges of femaleness.
These workshops are suitable for everyone with around 6 months experience in Iyengar yoga classes.
£30 per workshop or £75 for the series of 3 (10% discount for concessions)
Suitable for regular students of 6 months or more

Beginners, general, intermediate and specialist classes available. Book single class passes, or bulk-book with our 5-class and 10-class blocks.Please don't hesitate to contact us should you have any difficulty with the app: info@herefordyoga.co.uk
