Park Yoga Devizes

18/09/2026

Park Yoga may be finished for the season… but the yoga doesn’t have to be! 🌿💚

Many of you have asked how you can stay in touch with us or continue practising during the Park Yoga break, which has been really lovely to hear.

If you’d like to continue practising with me, I teach regular classes in Melksham and Chippenham, with online classes available on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings. 🌿

And for those of you who particularly loved our Sunday mornings together, I’m also bringing back my monthly Wintering Yoga sessions at the New Body Barn in Lydway (Old Potato Yard). A Sunday morning practice to slow down, move, breathe and stay connected through the quieter months. 💚

You’ll find the Wintering dates in the picture accompanying this post. For more information about any of my classes, you can contact me at [email protected] or through Yoga with Martina

You can also continue your yoga journey with our wonderful cover teachers Rachel and Amelia, who stepped in for three of our Park Yoga sessions this season. I’m so grateful to them both for bringing their warmth, experience and love of yoga to Hillworth Park. 🙏

Rachel offers classes Sow & Root in Devizes, Devizes Wharf and in Poulshot. Whether you’re fairly new to yoga or have been practising for years, you’ll be very welcome. For class times and more information, you can contact Rachel [email protected]

Amelia also teaches at Sow & Root in Devizes, as well as at the New Body Barn in Lydway a beautiful purpose-built yoga studio just outside Devizes. You can find her classes and further details at www.ameliagraceyoga.com.

So although our mats have been rolled up in Hillworth Park for another season, hopefully it isn’t goodbye. 😊

Whether you find your way to a class with me, Rachel or Amelia — keep moving, keep breathing, and hopefully our paths will cross on a yoga mat somewhere over the coming months. And we’ll keep our fingers crossed that we can all meet again in Hillworth Park for another Park Yoga season. 🌿🤞💚

And just like that… our 2026 Park Yoga season has come to an end! 🌿💚

It really has flown by this year, and what an incredible summer we have shared in Hillworth Park .

After being blessed with so much sunshine throughout the season, the weather decided to give us a slightly different finale today! 🌦️ But 70 brave souls wrapped up, rolled out their mats and joined me for one last practice on a drizzly Sunday morning. It felt like a lovely, intimate way to finish our season together.

And I have to admit, I felt a little emotional today. The kind words, hugs and conversations, the cards, beautiful flowers and even a book were completely unexpected and incredibly touching. Thank you. 💚 Your kindness and appreciation meant more than I can really put into words.

From 70 Park Yogis on our quietest Sunday to 180 on our busiest, and with close to 3,000 visits to Park Yoga Devizes across the season — what an incredible summer! But as wonderful as those numbers are, what has made these Sunday mornings so special has been all of you.

Thank you for coming week after week. For rolling out your mats, bringing your families and friends, welcoming new faces, sharing your smiles and conversations, and creating that little bit of Sunday morning magic in the park. Whether you came once, occasionally or hardly missed a week, you have been part of it. 💚

A huge thank you also to everyone who has donated this year — including the incredibly generous donations today. Park Yoga is a charity and your generosity helps us continue offering these sessions completely free and accessible to everyone. If you would still like to make a donation, or haven't had a chance to do so yet, you can donate through the DONATE page on the Park Yoga website. 🌿

And one last little request! 😊 Please remember to complete our 2026 Park Yoga survey if you haven't already. Your feedback is incredibly valuable and helps Park Yoga with its reporting to the Charity Commission and in showing the difference these sessions make.

Of course, our relationship doesn't have to end just because the Park Yoga season has. 😊 I'll share a separate post with information about the yoga sessions Rachel, Amelia and I offer locally and how you can stay connected with us. We would all be delighted to see some familiar Park Yoga faces during the seasonal break.

It has been an absolute joy and privilege to share these Sunday mornings with you. Thank you for making Park Yoga Devizes what it is — one very special community. 🌿💚

Park Yoga Devizes also wouldn't happen without the people and organisations working behind the scenes. A big thank you to Devizes Town Council, WASP (Wiltshire & Swindon Sport) our sponsor Yogi Tea and everyone who helps make these Sunday mornings possible.

And a special thank you to our lovely volunteer Angie, who has captured so many moments from our season through her wonderful photos. 📷💚

Have a wonderful autumn and winter, keep moving, keep breathing, and hopefully our paths will cross before we roll out our mats in Hillworth Park again.

Good morning Devizes! 🌿💚

Well, here we are — our final Park Yoga of the 2026 season!

The forecast seems to be giving us about a 50% chance of sunshine and a 50% chance of rain… but there's a 100% chance I'll be there!😄☀️🌧️

So come dressed for whatever the weather decides to bring, roll out your mat one more time, and let's finish our wonderful season together in Hillworth Park.

After being so lucky with the weather all summer, surely we can manage one final Sunday whatever happens! 😊

I really hope to see lots of you there for our last practice together.

9.30–10.30am | Hillworth Park

See you in the park! 🌿💚

And suddenly… here we are. 🌿💚

This Sunday is our final Park Yoga of the season in Hillworth Park.

It feels like only a little while ago that we rolled out our mats for the first time this spring, and somehow we have shared a whole summer of Sunday mornings together — with an amazing amount of sunshine, fresh air, movement, stillness, conversations, laughter and community. We really have been incredibly lucky with the weather this year! 🌞

So, if Park Yoga has been part of your summer, come and join us one more time. And if you've been meaning to give it a try all season… this really is your last chance for 2026! 😊

Sunday | 9.30–10.30am | Hillworth Park

Come as you are, bring your mat, and let's enjoy one final Sunday morning together. 💚

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Hi Devizes Park Yogies 🌿

You may have noticed that I’ve shared several reminders about our Park Yoga survey over the last few weeks, both here and during our Sunday morning sessions.

I’m going to share the email I’ve received from Park Yoga below, so you can see why I keep mentioning it and why your feedback is so important. As facilitators, we are being strongly encouraged to get as many participants as possible to complete the survey, and despite all my reminders, Devizes still needs more responses.

So, once again – please, please, please 🙏 if you haven’t completed it yet, could you spare a few minutes to do so?

More importantly, I would genuinely love to hear about your experience of Park Yoga Devizes this summer – what it has meant to you, what you’ve enjoyed, and perhaps what could be improved.

A huge thank you to everyone who has already completed it. 💚🙏

Martina

Email from Park Yoga leader team:

Hi,

I'm just emailing as we are struggling for responses from your participants on the annual evaluation survey.

We desperately need these responses to show that Park Yoga is making a difference and to strengthen the case for continuing at your venue next year.

If you could do some extra posts on your pages and mention it on Sunday, that would be amazing!

Thanks so much,

What a lovely morning in Hillworth Park! ☀️🌳

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us for our second-to-last Park Yoga of the season today. 💚

A special thank you for all your kind feedback and generous donations this morning. It really means a lot to hear what these Sunday mornings have meant to you and how Park Yoga has become part of your summer.

Some of you said your goodbyes today as you already know you can't make it next Sunday — thank you for being part of our Park Yoga community this season. It's been wonderful sharing these mornings with you. 🌿

But we're not quite finished yet… one more Park Yoga to come! 😊

Next Sunday we'll roll out our mats in Hillworth Park one last time this season. I hope as many of you as possible can join us for our final practice together.

Have a lovely week, and see you next Sunday at 9.30am. 💚☀️

What a lovely Sunday morning in Hillworth Park! 🌿💚

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Park Yoga this morning. After all that rain yesterday, we were very lucky to have a dry morning — and even a little blue sky! 😊

It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces and new ones too, coming together to move, breathe and share an hour outdoors.

With only two more Park Yoga Sundays left after today, these mornings are starting to feel rather precious. Let's make the most of them! 🌿

Thank you, as always, for your smiles, your lovely energy and for being part of our Park Yoga community.

Wishing you all a wonderful Bank Holiday weekend — enjoy the extra day, whatever you have planned. 💚☀️
