I’ve never tried yoga before, so I have nothing to compare Yoga Healing Glasgow to, but as a first time experience, it was perfect! I decided, along with a couple of friends, to sign up for their 6 week beginners course, which came in at £48, which I thought was pretty darn reasonable! We turned up and were quickly shown where the mats and blocks were, got set up on the floor and got our payment and paperwork sorted. Anthea, the instructor, was friendly and made sure everyone was ready before moving on to the next posture or movement. We started with learning the basic yoga techniques, learning to open up our chests and really allow our bodies to relax. Once we’d got this down, we started moving into some of the more straightforward postures, helping us to stretch and open up our bodies. What we did in our first class was really easing us into it slowly, but that was great for a complete novice like myself, and Anthea talked us through every breathing technique, every movement and posture, as well as why we were doing it. My tummy muscles are a teensy bit sore this morning, but after the class I felt so calm and relaxed! I can’t wait for next week and would definitely recommend the course for any novices looking to step into the world of yoga!

I work as an Osteopath, and I reccomend Yoga to some of my patients. Anthea is a wonderful Yoga Teacher. The centre that she runs is lovely, it has al the kit that you need to do a Yoga Class — Mats, Blocks etc. The Yoga Teachers, who’s classes I have attended, are all very kind people, observant to students needs/weaknesses and there for you. If you want to go to a first class Yoga studo, I’d go there.

A quiet, unassuming place, and my first experience of Yoga. Having had some experience with meditation in the past, I immediately felt calm and quiet entering the main room. There is a small entrance room which helps set the tone, and(once you’ve removed your shoes) you enter the main room, unfurl your mat and relax. For the beginner’s class I took, Anthea started us out with the basics — differing types of forms of breathing — and has a quiet authority that really put me at ease. The space is warm, so take some water with you, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. Can’t wait to go back next week.
