The teacher Rosie and several students sit peacefully in a small light room with the sun streaming in. I silently join them, collecting a mat, blanket, block and bolster from the neat cupboards on the side of the room.
As I settle down my breathing deepens, relaxing into the moment and allowing my movements to be led by Rosie’s instructions. We do cat/cow into downward-facing dog where we are encouraged to do what feels good by peddling out our legs and nodding and shaking out heads. We are taken through a series of stretching, invigorating and relaxing exercises to prepare for the day, some more challenging than others. The range of movements is broad and a variety of ways of doing any particular exercise is shown to suit all abilities. Anyone would feel welcome here.
When the class ends with ‘Namaste’ everybody brushes their mats and puts all yoga accessories back into the storage cupboards and heads off into the fresh morning to continue on with their days. I myself feel energised, filled with motivation and wishing I could start every day like this.
