The Yoga4Health Yoga 10-week programme supports participants to gain self-care skills by learning yoga breathing, relaxation and mindfulness techniques. No prior experience is needed, and the gentle stretching and strengthening yoga postures can be done in a chair or on a yoga mat.
What will the classes involve?
Each of the ten in-person sessions is led by an expert Yoga4Health teacher and include:
- Breathing practices
- Simple yoga postures
- Meditation and mindfulness
- Guided relaxation
The Yoga4Health evidence-based programme was commissioned by the NHS and created by the Yoga in Healthcare Alliance. It fuses the wisdom of ancient practices with modern medical science. The programme’s benefits have been validated by Westminster University. Yoga4Health classes are inclusive and secular and do not promote any religious position.
Joanna is the first Yoga4Health teacher who brought the protocol to Milton Keynes residents successfully securing four rounds of funding in 2025. This is the last opportunity this year to join a fully funded transformative course.
The in-person classes will take place on Tuesday afternoons at 4:30-5:45 (1 hour and 15 minutes) over 10 weeks, starting on 7 October (there will be no class during half term on 28 October). Participants will also have access to online resources and tutor's support.
There are limited spaces available to take part in the course which is fully funded by the Great Linford Council. As we expect this to be popular, if you would like to take advantage, register your interest in joining the course by following the link. You will be shortly contacted by the teacher (by email) to evaluate if you are eligible* and to ensure that we accommodate any special requirements. Whilst the programme is open to everyone, priority will be given to residents of Great Linford parish.
We really hope to welcome you to the course!
*There are a few exclusionary criteria to make sure that the practice is safe for all users.
