This class is ideal for people who have some flexibility and strength although this is not a pre-requisite as all stages of the poses will be offered. However students can expect to refine techniques and increase strength and stability within the poses. Students will work towards more complicated flows incorporating 2nd and 3rd level poses.
Beginners

I am working with Lorna as a BWY student teacher also .She has a lovely thoughtful yet enthusiastic approach to her teaching which I’m sure her students will benefit greatly from !
A very friendly and relaxed class. Lorna is professional and an extremely competent instructor. She has time for everyone and helps her students with their poses if they need it. I find the whole yoga experience very beneficial and I would highly recommend this class to all.
I have no hesitation in recommending Lorna – her guidance and teaching-style are ideal for beginners; calm, supportive and with a sense of humour thrown in. If I lived closer, I’d live to come along!
Lorna has a kind and thoughtful approach to her teaching. She creates a beautiful calm environment allowing her students to find peace in class. Her sense of humour makes everyone feel at home. I’ve enjoyed my classes with her.
I am student on the same course with Lorna. Already you can see Lornas natural caring approach to her yoga emerging. Her style makes you feel reassured that she is there with you on your yoga journey. I would be happy to attend her classes.
Thank you for your kind comments Catherine, it is lovely to see you each week and watch your confidence and development in the poses grow with every session.
My daughter and I joined Lorna’s beginners yoga class together and thoroughly enjoy the small group and calm, mindful start to our busy weekends. During each lesson we are taught some new poses and Lorna is attentive to each of us to ensure we are following correctly and achieving the most benefit for our body from the pose. I would definitely recommend her beginners class to anyone thinking of starting yoga – you will receive a warm welcome.
