12.00-1.00pm Yoga for cancer with Estella Alvares – £10 drop in or £40 for 5 weeks
Starts 5th November
I believe yoga can help us through the ups and downs of life. It strengthens us physically, and can boost us emotionally & mentally. It can provide us with a safe haven, an anchor in our lives when much else seems to be out of our control. These group classes are designed to support anyone whose life has been affected by cancer – from diagnosis, through treatment & recovery – to return you to physical strength, range of movement, balance & flexibility, to enable you to feel more comfortable in your body and steadier in your mind and emotions. Through active physical movement to rebuild strength, Restorative Yoga to nourish & revive, softening Breathwork & Meditation, these classes guide you in learning to trust your body, connecting you once more with your own inner strengths & resources to support your healing process.
These practices can help you to relax again, which can ease the side effects of treatment such as tiredness, anxiety, chronic pain & issues with sleep. If you’re caring for someone living with cancer you’re welcome to join these classes to take the opportunity of time for yourself to find peace & nourishment.
I look forward to welcoming you to a safe and nurturing space to aid your return to a sense of wholeness in yourself. Please get in touch with me if you would like to book, have any questions or would like more information about these classes.

Aimed at practitioners who have attended a beginner class, had a break from practising and want to restart, or wish to revisit the foundations of their asana practice.
More advanced and detailed instructions will be introduced to create a deeper and more challenging asana practice. Focusing on standing, sitting, twisting, inverted asanas with forward, backward and supine extensions, the goal is to develop strength and improve mobility, stamina, concentration and relaxation.
The Iyengar yoga teaching method – based on the lifetime work of Guruji B.K.S. Iyengar – aims to achieve optimum postural alignment in each asana.
Katrin has been practising yoga for 23 years and was introduced to Iyengar yoga to help alleviate severe lower back pain. She completed her teacher training in Africa and the Middle East and qualified in 2018.
