Yoga with Weights

Get stronger and maintain muscle mass as you age.
A Strength-building class using 1kg or 2kg hand weights in yoga postures and sequences, the focus in this practice is to build and maintain lean muscle in your arms, legs, glutes, and core abdominals.
Yoga with weights gives you more awareness of your alignment in yoga positions and refines your technique & balance.
Using small weights with repetition will also help with coordination as well as maintaining bone density, which can decline as we age.

Designed to be accessible for beginners and challenging for experienced students, you can choose from the 1kg or 2kg weights we have and switch during the class if you like.
This class includes a 5-minute relaxation.

Bryony is a yoga therapist and experienced yoga instructor. She created this class after feeling the effects of perimenopause on her joints. Maintaining strength and lean muscle is extremely helpful at any age, but particularly at the midlife point.
