Hi. I'm Cheryl. Welcome to my page! I hope you find everything you need here about my classes but I'm always happy to have a chat.

I have spent the past 20 years working in health for the NHS and local authorities. Here I gained great insight into what is important to make people healthy. I had always practiced yoga on and off, prioritising 'cardio' work instead. My own health struggles led me to take stock of what my body needed and guided me to start taking yoga seriously. I have found yoga and wild swimming to be the perfect combination for wellbeing.

A love of supporting people to be the best they can be, led me to retrain as a coach. I now support organisations to grow emotionally intelligent leaders and empower individuals to make courageous change in their lives.

I bring together expertise in health, coaching and wellbeing, to facilitate holistic yoga classes in Huddersfield. I believe people are resourceful and strong and whilst there may be some challenges presented by taking part in yoga, I'm confident we can work together to adapt the yoga to work for you.

Absolutely not! Yoga is for everyone. We may see images on social media or other media of 'perfect' bodies bending themselves into all manner of shapes. That is not realistic for most people. I offer inclusive yoga with lots of options and variations to the postures. If you are unsure if yoga is for you, please get in touch. If you have a medical condition, you can always check with your GP first.

The class starts with settling into the space and bringing awareness to your body and breath. We gradually warm up and ease in to our postures. We may try some strength, flexibility or balance work. Each posture has options and variations so you can work at a level that suits you.

Most classes have a section focusing on the breath. Recent research highlights the importance of breath work for wellbeing - including reducing stress, improving sleep or energising - depending on which exercise we use!

After all that, I lead you through a guided relaxation. Here you get an opportunity to relax and soak up the benefits of your practice.

The main thing you need is comfortable clothing that you can move freely in. We spend most of class in our bare feet.

You will also need your own mat (please let me know if this is a problem in advance of the class).

A blanket can be helpful to place under the knees and of course to keep you comfortable in relaxation🧘‍♀️.
