Here’s what’s on offer:

  • ‘A yoga Masterclass for women’ – this 3-hour Masterclass will support and help you navigate through the changes associated with the menopausal years. It’s half theory and half practice and it is open to all women, regardless of previous yoga experience or lack of it. In a warm, friendly and welcoming environment you’ll be invited to share your own experience and connect with other women in a supportive and non-judgemental way. The physiology of the Menopause is explained, its common and less common symptoms and natural ways to ease your journey. This is followed by a guided yoga practice specially designed to support you through this time. This Masterclass can be joined in-person at The Haven or online.

  • 90-minute Restoratives – Restorative classes can run anytime but tend to be popular during the winter months. The Restorative Yoga classes at The Haven include supported postures, breathing, meditation and selected readings from old and new texts. These classes are designed to help you deeply relax, reduce stress, and restore your energy during the winter months. To make these classes extra indulgent, we end with mint tea and dark chocolate.
