Who it's for

This is for you if…

  • You've always meant to try yoga but never started.
  • You feel stiff and a bit nervous about classes.
  • You'd like to learn properly, in private, at home.
  • You're curious about Yoga Nidra but want to start with movement.

What changes

By the end you'll know a short sequence you can do on your own, how to adapt it on stiff days, and you'll have tried Yoga Nidra to see if it's for you.

What's included

  • 8 stages of follow-along video
  • Kinder variations for every pose
  • Sequence cards to follow along
  • An introduction to Yoga Nidra in Stage 8
  • Two new stages each week, then 6 months to revisit

Yoga Foundations

I'm not flexible. Is this for me?

Yes. Flexibility is something yoga gives you, not something you need to start.

How much space do I need?

Enough to lie down with your arms outstretched.

How long can I use it?

Two new stages open each week, so the whole programme is open by week four. You can revisit anything you've opened as often as you like for six months. After that, you can renew for another six months for just £15.
