It is important to find a class that is the right level for you so that you can practice in a way that is both safe and appropriately challenging. I have classes suitable for absolute beginners and those who require a more gentle practice, as well as those for more experienced practitioners. I only teach in clean, well maintained, well ventilated premises that are heated in winter. I also teach privately on a one-to-one basis and have a catalogue of recorded classes on the WEIRDYOGA page.
All of my classes are booked and paid for in advance in blocks of up to 12 weeks but I do have a free drop-in class on a Thursday (see details below). If you would like to join a waiting list I will invite you in for a free trial class as soon as a space comes up.
The cost of classes are:
60 min class £9 (drop in £10)
75 min class £12 (drop in £13)
90 min class £13.50 (drop in £15)

Yoga for Inner Resilience Thursdays at 1.15pm
This is a free drop-in class, no need to book, nothing to pay**
This is a very gentle 60 minute class for people who want to build resilience and would work well for those who are living with depression or anxiety, dealing with a loss of some kind, recovering from a serious health problem or living with a chronic illness. This class is designed to help you rebuild your confidence, boost your self-esteem, get your body moving again and harness the natural power of your breath. You would need clearance from your GP/consultant/physiotherapist/ psychotherapist as this will be a physical practice, though gentle, and may bring long held tensions and emotions to the surface. The class will involve yoga postures that require you to be able to get on and off the floor unassisted. In this class there will be no kneeling, lunges or weight bearing on the wrists.
Contact me at chandanandayoga@gmail.com to express your interest.
Please note: Yoga is not a substitute for counselling, physiotherapy or medication, but can work well alongside all of these.

The catch-up system
If you are unable to make your class I may be able to offer you a catch up class
What is a “catch-up” class?
This is a class that you book for a different day and time to your usual class to make up for a class that you miss. Catch up classes do not have to be in the same WEEK as the class you are missing but they do need to be in the same BLOCK
So how does the catch up system work now?
If you know in advance that you will be away for example a holiday or an appointment let me know the dates as soon as you can. Visit the website to see what other classes are running on what dates and at what time and email me and let me know which ones might work as a catch-up. I will then add your name to the ‘reserves’ list for those classes and let you know if a cancellation comes in. You will need to keep an eye on your whats app/text that day as cancellations often come in at the last minute.
What if I have to cancel last minute or forget to let you know?
If you have to cancel at the last minute or are unable to let me know you are not coming, then I cannot offer you a catch up class. The system only works if your place is made available for someone else to use. I appreciate that things can happen at the last minute like a cancelled train, or a sick child but do please still text or whats app me if you can even at the last minute as I am often waiting to start a class assuming that you are running late and this can delay the start time of class. I am unlikely to see emails as I leave to set up the room at least half an hour before class starts so please contact me on 07821 535540 by text or whats app message/voice note.
Another option would be to come to see me in my new larger yoga space at home. This can be on a one to one basis or in pairs. If you would like help finding someone to share with I am more than happy to match you up. The advantages of sharing a lesson are you get some much needed social contact and the camaraderie of practicing together, it brings the cost down, and if you are suffering from lack of motivation it may just kick start you to get your mat out and practice with me online. For more information please visit the PRIVATE TUITION page on this website.
