Today, Mr Drakeford said “no” to face-to-face classes. But it will be possible to get those in-person classes going again sometime this year. Not instead of virtual, but as well as. After Easter last year, we started the “All the Yogas” monthly subscription for virtual yoga classes, and then outdoor classes, and then in-person classes. It turns […]
It’s nearly a year since the Covid-chaos began. And since then I’ve taught hundreds of yoga classes online. And I’m celebrating and thanking all the people that showed up for classes (here’s some folks connecting up for last night’s session)! I love you!!! Online yoga was a totally new thing for me in March 2020. […]
Yoga classes in the UK and the US are mostly led by people (like me) who don’t have an understanding of the ancient Sanskrit language and have not spent an extended time in that culture. Aspects of yoga are ancient; many aspects are not that ancient. I see a lot of yoga out there that […]
1. My first ‘proper’ job, 22 years ago, was at the BBC, writing software to support the launch of digital television (remember when we only had 4-5 channels?!) 2. I held myself back because of a lack of confidence for many years. 3. I worked in dozens of different offices within the BBC. But because […]
Well, not always. Over the twenty years I’ve been doing yoga I’ve had, or worsened, many injuries through yoga practice. While many times I left yoga classes feeling better than when I walked in… occasionally I left feeling worse. Wheel is an example of a pose that injured my back several times, leaving me with […]

You enjoy working with people:- you’re curious about humans, especially the mysterious interaction between mind, body and spirit, and you’re fascinated by the healing power […]
Maybe we’ll get an announcement on when lockdown in Wales lifts on Friday. Or maybe we won’t. Maybe schools will reopen next month. Or maybe they won’t. Maybe life will go back to normal after the vaccine. Or maybe it won’t. So, in the meantime, let’s focus on the immediate possibilities available to us. Like […]
Now if you’d asked me about online yoga a year ago, I would have shrugged my shoulders. Yoga? Via the internet? That sounds rubbish!!! But this year has proven otherwise. People are enjoying the yoga at home, in their lounges and bedrooms (and occasionally even their hallways). And I was really touched that 20 people […]

It is a fragile thing to be a human… Navigating our endlessly changing world, which, in the 21st Century, just doesn’t make sense most of the time… Feeling “not quite right” but not really knowing why… Unsure of the “right thing” or the “wrong thing” to do or say, and seeing other people having a […]
