- ANYWHERE YOGA: a standing sequence you can do anywhere (no mat necessary! :-)Parliament Hill Bandstand, London
Start the day with fresh air, movement, and good company ๐
ANYWHERE YOGA: Early Morning Edition!
7:30AM every Thursday
This *free* yoga meetup is for anyone who wants to get outside, move their body, and have some fun. ๐ฟ
So, how can we practice yoga in the park without a mat?
The sequence I'll teach you is one that you can do anywhere, no matter the terrain. Park, beach, the middle of a forest, the top of a mountain, the middle of an airport, anywhere! It's a simple, standing sequence that you can learn and take it with you wherever you go ๐ (I will you send a PDF of the sequence after the event.)
What if it's cold?
To combat cold, I'll focus on heat generating poses that are handy to know when you're waiting for a bus or the central heating is lacking. ๐ฅ
We'll make the most of all the fresh air by synchronising movement and breath, clearing the London out of your lungs and leaving you feeling REFRESHED and UPLIFTED! ๐ฟ
And if it's raining?
The Parliament Hill Bandstand offers good protection from the rain. It can actually be quite beautiful to practice yoga under the bandstand with rain falling all around.
We'll meet at 7:30 and move for about 30-45 mins (feel free to drop in/out when you need to, early mornings can be tricky).
โ This is an ALL TOGETHER event, so there will be an optional social coffee afterwards at a nearby cafe.
โค๏ธ Everyone is welcome and everything is optional
๐งญ Meeting point: Parliament Hill Bandstand (if it's raining or very muddy we'll stay in the bandstand. If its sunny we might relocate to a nearby grassy area)
๐ธ The class is free, but if you'd like to support the initiative, you can buy me a coffee ๐

I look forward to seeing you! ๐๐คฒ
- ALL TOGETHER at THE SUNDAY XPERIENCE: meet, connect, and move!Salsa - Soho, London
We're adding an ALL TOGETHER spin to THE SUNDAY EXPERIENCE by meeting 1 hr before the party starts, to: socialise, get to know one another, and build community.
Our group will have a big table in the VIP area with a great view of the dance floor, so even if you don't feel like dancing, you can still be part of the party.
I (Bonny) will be there to welcome and introduce you to one another and to the teachers running the night. We will have time to get to know each other a bit and I'll break the ice with some (optional) questions for connection :-)
Then, THE SUNDAY XPERIENCE will begin...
THE SUNDAY EXPERIENCE is a welcoming and uplifting evening of dance, music, and good vibes :-). The expert teachers offer a free warm up and two excellent classes in Salsa and Reggaeton (see our exclusive discount below). They then get the party started with an 'Animation', or group dance, for all levels, combining a range of latin dance styles.
SALSA and REGGAETON are so much more than dance.
They are: uplifting music, a way to make new friends, exercise that you won't even notice you're doing, a laid back atmosphere, a culture of connection, and a lot of fun ๐As always, the ALL TOGETHER focus is on having a good time and meeting new people, so:
- Everyone is welcome
- Everything is optional - you can participate as much or as little as you want to
- Invitation to connect - we make sure everyone is introduced to one another and will break the ice for you with some conversation starters and the endorphin filled FREE dance warm up
So in summary, the night goes like this:
6:00pm - Arrive, meet one another, get connected.
7:00pm - FREE LATIN WARM UP! (10 minutes of fun and easy to follow moves led by the Sunday Xperience team)
7.15pm - SALSA (Beginner, Improver, and Intermediate level classes)
8:00pm - REGGAETON (Beginner level class) - OR - SALSA (Beginner, Improver, and Intermediate level classes)
8:45pm - the party starts with 'Animations' - group dances you can follow along with - which are as fun to watch as they are to do.
Followed by an evening of socialising, movement, and fun!The classes are usually ยฃ9 one class โข ยฃ12 for two (per person)
We have an exclusive discount for Meetup members: 2 classes for only ยฃ8*

- WOMEN'S YOGA and SOCIAL: practice yoga together and/or share a coffee afterwardsLime bistro cafe, London
A chance to meet and connect with other women. Practice an uplifting and restorative yoga sequence together and/or connect over a coffee afterwards.
This meetup is an optional, social add on to Bonny's Flow & Restore classes at Moon Women's Health.
We will practice yoga together from 12:00-1:00PM and then head to the cafe across the road for coffee/tea and conversation.
You are welcome to join us for both or either:
- 12:00PM YOGA: book your place in the yoga class
- 1:00PM SOCIAL: RSVP attending to this meetup (free!)
I (Bonny) am an experienced yoga teacher and facilitator of women's spaces (including the Women's group at Talk 4 Health). In both my yoga class and at the social afterwards, I will create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. You will have the opportunity to check in with your body, your mind, your intentions for the day/week ahead, and your fellow yogis
The Lime Bistro Cafe is a new local business with welcoming staff, an excellent all day breakfast, and many other food options.
Who should come?
All women are welcome. The yoga class is accessible to everyone, with options given for all levels. Moon Women's Health provides a Women Supporting Women Fund for concessions to classes.The social afterwards is equally inclusive. This is an ALL TOGETHER event, so:
- Everyone is welcome - we value diversity and difference
- Everything is optional - you can participate as much or as little as you like
- Invitation to connection - I will break the ice for you with introductions and conversation starters
Why come?
Sometimes anonymous yoga can be what you want, but other times it can feel a bit lonely to arrive, practice, and leave a yoga class without talking to any of your fellow practitioners.Many people practice yoga for years without making any 'yoga friends', despite potentially having quite a lot in common with the people who go to the same classes as they do.
In this meetup you have the opportunity to meet and connect with other women over coffee/tea in a welcoming environment.

I hope to meet you at this or one of our other meetups soon! โค๏ธ
