Enjoy mindful movement, rest and relaxation for the LGBTQIA+ community at the beautiful Stables Yoga Studio in York. It’s a great chance to meet other yogis from around the Queer Yoga North network and invest in self-care.

We’ll start with a grounding flow around our Earth Spring theme. Then there’ll be a tea break with treats and time to connect with others, or just stay in that inward space if you prefer. Then we’ll move into a nourishing restorative class, followed by a Yoga Nidra. We’ll finish with an optional sharing circle.

Meet your instructors:

Jas is a queer Yoga teacher from Newcastle. Pre-pandemic she spent her days teaching Yoga on retreats around the world. She has been teaching Yoga for 6 years and practicing for 15+. Jas has got a big bone to pick with the trillion dollar wellness industry and is led by a passion to make yoga accessible and enjoyable for everyone who wants to practice!
