This 60 minute morning class is focused on improving the quality of your wellbeing.
The class aims to help balance, co-ordination, flexibility and lung capacity and focused for anyone who needs a gentler class, and sometimes the use of a chair.
There are many yogic practices that can help strengthen your nervous system, immune system, glandular health and activate both brain hemispheres.
Breathwork will be part of the class. Our lungs feed oxygen into our cells.
There will be no lying down on a mat, YSY has special and stable yoga chairs. However, for those who can stand, the class will have both standing and sitting postures. The activity in class will be adapted with sensitivity for each attendee.
This class will suit those who are in their radiant years (In yoga often said to be those who have reached their 70th decade and beyond.)
Unfortunately we have no wheelchair/disabled access or toilet at YSY but this is an ambition to create.
There is private on-site parking and three steps into the main house – or access without steps from the garden door (please tell us if you need this.)

What do they say about Yogaspace Yorkshire?
I came on retreat and stayed at the cottages with my oldest daughter in June 2018 and January 2019.
Emma and Charlie are the perfect hosts they made us feel completely welcome in their beautiful home which sits in beautiful grounds surrounded by spectacular views of Yorkshire.
I want to do your yoga Nidra class again – I slept so well. Thank you.
The Women’s Group has been an amazing, welcoming, warm experience.
The positive energies and collective female wisdom has been brilliant – the thought provoking sessions followed by the yoga and final gong bath was the perfect balance – thank you Emma – and please can we do it all again!
I have taken part in several Kundalini yoga classes during retreats at Patrick Brompton Hall and have loved all of them.
I was a novice to this particular yoga but the classes catered for all abilities and I was immediately made to feel comfortable.
I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my Kundalini yoga journey and I can’t wait to go back again soon!
From the first moment of entering the beautiful hall, I knew this studio is something special. A light spacious yet so cozy and calm yoga space is hard to find. Relaxation comes naturally and yoga is so much more enjoyable in these beautiful surroundings. Emma is am amazing kundalini yoga teacher and divine when playing the gong. Her classes are challenging yet respect individual circumstances and make you feel so much better instantly. She is very knowledgeable, connects theory and practice with ease, is full of energy and positive spirit and a joy to be taught by. I truly love my kundalini yoga and gong sessions with Emma
To sum it up with one word: love. The best yoga retreat I have been to.
Amazing teacher, wonderful hosts, beautiful facilities, gorgeous surroundings, and delicious food.
Absolutely loved every bit of it
I have been to many different yoga retreats both in the UK and overseas and this one was by far the best.
