Yoga for All is a physical yoga class using strong stretches and yoga postures to develop health and fitness, and is suitable for most beginners and non-beginners. The benefits of yoga for relaxation are well known, but it can also be used as a good physical exercise for health and fitness. Regular practice can give improved muscle tone, strength and stamina, as well as flexibility and balance. In the long term, benefits are often found in the mind and emotions as well as in the physical body with improvements such as clarity of thought and improved concentration. Benefits in relaxation and physical well-being are often felt quite quickly. Tutor Jeremy Smallwood has been practising yoga since 1980 and teaching since the mid 1980s. During the 1980s he trained in Iyengar-style yoga teaching but subsequently has developed his own ways of working, guided and influenced by his own experience and many other yoga teachers and sources. The Warren Centre is primarily an adult and family learning centre, in the heart of Shirley Warren on the Shirley Warren Learning Campus site. It has become an important part of the local community, running courses including everything from assertiveness to web design, mother and baby groups to tea dances. The Warren Centre believes that learning is a lifelong process and that people learn best and achieve most when they are given confidence in their own abilities, and when their own ideas and experiences are valued.
