Yoga Flow and Sound Healing classes at the Carers Support Centre 

Yoga Flow with Francesca at 10.30am will combine slow mindful movement with traditional yoga postures, and the gentle pace of this class encourages careful precision and quality of the breath.

At 2.30pm, Rona will lead a relaxing Sound Healing class, aiming to promote inner peace and balance, reduce stress, and reconnect with your mind, body and spirit.
 
Due to limited availability we will be allocating slots for these classes at random with a lucky dip, so please register your interest in the yoga or sound healing class by this Friday 6 December.
 
You can register your interest by completing a slip at the Carers Support Centre advice desk, calling 02086499339 (option 1), or emailing enquiries@carersinfo.org.uk
 
You’ll need to provide your full name, telephone number, and preference for yoga or sound healing. If you’ve been allocated a slot, you will be notified by Monday 9 December.
 
For both classes, please wear warm comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat (a bath towel would also work).
