1. How long have you been practicing yoga?Most recently for 3 years. I had previously practiced yoga for a period of 5 years.
2. What do you feel you get out of your yoga practice?
I learn the art of relaxation so in times of stress or anxiety I can call upon the techniques. I also learn to control my breathing which helps me to maintain the postures. I enjoy the small improvements I have made particularly in posture and suppleness.
3. How do you feel your life has changed since you have been doing a regular yoga practice?
A sense of wellbeing because I am aware of my improving ability to relax and keep supple.
4. What is your favourite posture and why?
My favourite posture is warrior as I feel strong, grounded and well stretched. My second favourite is sphinx which is a great back stretch.
5. What would you say to someone who is thinking about attending yoga for the first time and a little afraid to take that first step?
Come along and try it. Everyone works to their own level. There is no competition to reach a particular standard. There are lots of variations of postures for varying abilities. You will find you are better at some postures than others. Give it a good few weeks or months before you decide if it is for you as each week is different.
