What we’re about
This group has been created for anyone interested in well-being.
I'd like to share the wonderful tool of YOGA with all of you interested in improving the quality of your life and enjoying your body. We can get healthier, stronger, happier and find balance through this ancient practice. And we can inspire each other :)
We gather together for weekly yoga classes in Barking.
Classes are suitable for all ages and all fitness levels. Beginners are very welcome :)
We are practising Flow Vinyasa Yoga which is a further developed form of Hatha Yoga based on a sequences of breath-synchronized movements used to transition between sustained postures. This form of yoga offers a range of health benefits to those who practice it, as it encompasses all areas of mind, body and spirit. The flowing, dynamic and continual movement, from one pose to another gives you a cardiovascular benefit. The routine practice of vinyasa yoga can increase muscle strength, endurance, flexibility and reduce levels of stress.
Yoga courses for beginners also available on a regular basis. Please check here for the latest yoga courses and workshops in Barking.
We also gather together regularly for Gong Bath sessions. Using powerful sounds of the gongs and other instruments that are helping us to find a place of happiness and balance within by harmonising the vibrations of the body, connecting with our True Self and reaching a state of relaxation where the natural healing process begins. My aim is to share this experience with others, to create a space for peace, clarity and connecting with our own potential.
Our Barking Yoga & Gong Community is growing!!!
Please check our CALENDAR for the latest events and I can't wait to see you in one of the sessions :)

- Meditation for Beginners - 3 weeks course in BarkingParkside Community Centre, Ilford£35.00
How well do you truly know yourself? How effectively do you manage the constant stream of thoughts that fill your mind? Are your feelings and emotions a source of clarity, or do they dictate your actions, impact your health, and shape your life in ways you’d rather control? Does your perspective on others and the world around you feel steady and positive, or does it fluctuate unpredictably?
Many of us live with a sense of disconnection from our inner selves, adrift in a sea of thoughts and emotions. How do we reclaim our inner calm and balance? By turning our attention inwards.
This beginner-friendly meditation course offers a gentle and supportive introduction to the transformative power of mindfulness. Whether you’re completely new to meditation or seeking to deepen your existing practice, this course will equip you with essential tools and techniques to cultivate inner peace and clarity.
