"I have been attending Ruth’s Gentle Yoga classes for a number of years now and enjoy them a lot. We do not attempt many classical yoga postures but work on keeping the whole body flexible through a variety of less demanding routines and exercises. We also receive a gentle exposure to other aspects of yogic practice, such as breathing techniques and chanting and finish each session with much-needed deep relaxation.
It is a friendly group of - generally - older people but it does vary and, although there is a longstanding core group, we benefit from leavers and new starters each term, each new starter bringing a fresh “buzz” to the class.
Ruth herself is a very competent and caring teacher who is concerned to ensure that we operate safely within our own capabilities. We also have a lot of fun as she has a very relaxed approach to the class and the group feel comfortable sharing their thoughts about some of the exercises and, occasionally, far less serious issues!
It’s a great class, good for the soul as well as the body. I would recommend it to anyone."

“ I started Ruth’s yoga class expecting the usual plentiful yoga benefits for my body in response to recovering from CFS. I was not expecting the huge emotional healing process that began. What an utter joy. After completing talking therapy I had now found the missing link to heal that talking couldn’t reach. I thank you Ruth, and so does my heart.”

"I've been attending Ruth's classes for about 14 years. I love them because they not only help me stay flexible and strong, but also give me a chance to pause my busy life and breathe. I really like the lack of pressure to perform or excel, and instead to do what is right for me at that moment. When I leave the class, I feel so much better able to deal with whatever life throws at me."
