Stables Yoga

Just around the corner from the hub that is Bishopthorpe Road, there's an oasis of calm to be discovered for those not already in the know. Classes take place upstairs in an airy and calmly colourful, beamed studio room with enough space for 20, although they hate to turn anyone away.

There are classes for the seasoned yogi, children from the age the of six, and beginners who can take up the introductory offer which gives them access to all drop-in classes over two weeks for £25 so they can find the style they enjoy the most. They regularly hold weekend workshops covering pregnancy yoga (one of their specialisms), inversions, restorative yoga and meditation, and booking online is nice and easy. As soon as you step over the threshold, you will truly know what it feels like to leave your troubles at the door.
