Join Maggie for Women's Yoga classes on Fridays at 10am in Ormeau Park 🧘‍♀️🌳

We begin with meditation, grounding and breath practices, followed by gentle warm up movements, stronger standing shapes, cooling practice and a rest. We have time at the beginning and end to say hello and ask questions. Movement in this class will be slow paced, invitational and offers choices to connect in to your body.

All women are welcome to join and explore at your own pace and in your own way. No prior movement or meditation experience is required.

👉 Please email Maggie: [email protected] to join the class
