About us
This is a group for those of us who accept who we are and like who we are - do things alone however would prefer to share some of our leisure time with like-minded. We are interesting and interested in so much...walking in the countryside, travel, week-end breaks, playing cards, theatre, opera, dining, visiting galleries, exhibitions, playing tennis perhaps, book club, art.......it would be good for members to come up with ideas that we can join in with...we're not necessarily 'grumpy old' but do not like loud music, gum chewing or bootcamps!
Please note that photographs and/or video recordings may be taken at a 45+ Not Grumpy event. If you do not want your photo/video published online, please notify the group leader of this.

Gentle Yoga & Meditation with Carmina – Online Session January 9 to March 27
·OnlineOnline☀️ A calm, supportive morning practice
“Yoga doesn’t have to be strong, fast or perfect to make you feel better.”
This gentle morning yoga class is created especially for people aged 45+ who want to move with kindness, care for their joints, and start the day feeling calmer, more open and more at ease in their bodies.
As our bodies change over time, we may experience stiffness, reduced mobility, joint sensitivity, hormonal changes, stress or fatigue. This class offers a safe, welcoming and supportive space to move gently, breathe deeply and reconnect with your body — without pressure or expectations.Starting January 9, this 11-week online session combines a blend of Hatha yoga (slow, aligned movement), Yin yoga (deep, nourishing stretches for joints and connective tissue), and Korean yoga (breathing, energy work and body awareness).
The focus is always on how you feel, not on how a pose looks.
The same class is offered twice a week, on Wednesdays and Fridays, and you’re welcome to attend either one or both.
