About Eric

He has taught yoga sessions in many venues – these include community and village halls, supported special events at Croft Racing Circuit and local leisure venues.

About Gill

Age doesn't matter!
Eric and Gill, now both in their late 60’s, are not the young bendy yogis you find on Instagram – they are real , they are normal and have many limitations. They have realised that this doesn’t really matter!
“Yoga is not about attaining perfection, it is a physical, mental and emotional practice. We encourage people to understand and accept their limitations and work within their own capabilities. Yoga is suitable for all ages and stages of life it helps to build strength and flexibility for everyone.”
