Community Yoga Comes to Historic Edge Hill House on Gloucester Main Street
A welcoming, all-levels yoga experience bringing movement, mindfulness, and community together in the heart of Gloucester Courthouse.
GLOUCESTER, VA — Historic Edge Hill House, home of the Gloucester Woman's Club, welcomes Community Yoga on Saturday, November 14, 2026, from 9:00–10:00 AM. This donation-based, slower-paced yoga class is designed to bring people together through movement, breath, and connection.
Located on Gloucester's Main Street, Edge Hill House has been part of the community for more than 250 years. This yoga offering continues the tradition of bringing people together in this historic space, creating an opportunity for neighbors, friends, and newcomers to connect while supporting their physical and mental well-being.
Community Yoga offers a gentle practice suitable for all experience levels. Participants can expect soft music, breath-led movement, standing and balancing postures, and grounding stretches designed to improve mobility, release tension, and build strength and flexibility.
Whether attending a yoga class for the first time or returning to an established practice, participants will find an encouraging environment with options to adapt movements to their individual needs.
"Community Yoga is about creating a space where people feel they belong. You don't need to be flexible, experienced, or know anything about yoga to participate. Just come as you are," says instructor Amanda Jackson.
Beyond the physical benefits, the class emphasizes the value of slowing down, connecting with ourselves, and building meaningful connections within our local community.

Amanda Jackson has been teaching yoga since 2019 and brings more than 2,500 hours of teaching experience to her classes. Her approach combines thoughtful sequencing, mindful movement, and breath awareness to help students quiet the mental chatter, reconnect with their bodies, and experience the benefits of yoga beyond the mat.
Amanda specializes in creating welcoming, multilevel classes where everyone, especially first-time students, can feel comfortable, capable, and supported. Her clear verbal cues help participants move confidently into postures without needing to constantly watch the instructor. Rather than remaining at the front of the room, she moves among students, offering guidance, encouragement, and individual attention throughout the practice.
Her goal is for every participant to leave feeling more connected to their breath, more at ease in their body, and confident in their ability to practice yoga. Amanda teaches and owns two studios in neighboring towns, BlueSky Yoga in Yorktown and Body Balance Yoga and Fitness in Williamsburg
