Corbridge Yoga Studio is an inclusive space for anyone with a body!
We welcome and celebrate every human that shows up to breathe and move with us.
Here are list of frequent questions we get asked by people that are thinking of joining us….
✨I am a total beginner- can you accommodate me?
YES! Most of the classes on the timetable are suitable for beginners. The only exception to this are the two classes named “deepen your practice” it is recommended that you attend 5 classes before registering for one of these. Unless of course you’re not a beginner.
We also have a team of highly qualified, intuitive and very talented teachers who can adapt poses to suit your needs as a beginner.
✨I’m too old/ unfit/ overweight (insert any word) to start now!
NO YOU ARE NOT! You can start at any age and any fitness level. To feel comfortable in class we ask that you are able to sit on the floor and stand up without assistance. If that is not a possibility We encourage you to book a one-to-one where we can use the assistance of a chair, we will create an individually tailored plan with a view to building the strength in your body for you to make this possible.
✨I’m not flexible enough?
THIS ONE ALWAYS MAKES US YOGA TEACHERS LAUGH. Thats why you come right? …. Actually it’s not the entire aim of the practice but it certainly happen when you practice regularly. If you are not flexible then YOU NEED THIS!
✨ I have injuries that prevent me from moving fully. I will start Yoga when I am better.
Why not see if a regular Yoga practice could be the very thing that helps to heal your injury. All movement starts with a breath. Injuries show up on the body as a result of a dysfunctional diaphragm (breathing muscle).
This can be linked to posture.
If the diaphragm doesn’t move freely we start to create compensation patterns which can result in injuries. Put simply- the best way to heal an injury is to start with a deep breath!
