Yoga in Victoria park!

*New class*

Sundays

9:00am-10:15am

Victoria Park, East London

I can highly recommend a new class starting this weekend taught by the experienced Katrina Kurdy (E-RYT 500). The classes are vinyasa yoga style, alignment-based and strong; yet they are also fluid, compassionate, and woven with a steady breath.

Please bring your own mat and be mindful of social distancing when laying your mat down. The weather will vary so you might like to dress in layers or even bring sunscreen. If it looks like rain, Katrina will make a call at least 30 minutes before class. If we aren’t able to meet in the park, you email you a link to join the class online via Zoom. If you prefer not to practice online, just let her know, and your drop in class will be refunded.

Please book in advance via: https://www.katrinakyoga.com/park-yoga

£10 drop in | £25 for all five Sundays | £5 Reduced Rate (if you need a boost and a financial break)

Meer near the Bonner Gate entrance and Victoria Park Market by the Dogs of Alicibiades sign post (on the pond/east side of Bonner Gate), or just through the trees in the field there if you’re running late. You’ll receive contact details after booking in case you need to reach me (though I won’t be able to reply after class begins). Please bring your own yoga mat, water, props, etc. and set your mat up with respect to social distancing.

Enjoy!

So happy to see the gyms, sports clubs and martial arts centres open and seeing people do what they love doing.

In line with the latest government, NHS and HCPC guidance, I will be using PPE whilst in treatment sessions and allowing time between appointments to clean the room and equipment.

If you have any questions regarding re-opening or any injuries, please get in contact.

Stay healthy and train hard!

YOGA @ ROYAL DOCKS CROSSFIT!

Saturday 07/02/15

1100-1200

Do you do enough stretching and mobility work?

Katrina Kurdy will be running a free CrossFit specific power Vinyasa flow Yoga session for members following morning class / Physio! Katrina has taught in the US, UK and Asia, and her students include CrossFItters, MMA fighters, athletes and dancers.

The 60 minute trial class will focus on preventing common CrossFit injuries by increasing flexibility, building core strength, and creating a spatial awareness of movement and the body.  Vinyasa Yoga (like CrossFit) is designed to be accessible and scaled, so even if you have yoga experience or want to improve your gymnastic ability, you will be able to push yourself in this class.

This session will be an introduction to Vinyasa Yoga and aim to teach you the basic postures. Vinyasa means ‘breath to movement’ and is a ‘flowing’ exercise that will provide a good cardiovascular workout in addition to improving balance, strength and flexibility.  You will notice the similarities between some of the CrossFit warm-ups (gymnastic movements, stretches, and core exercises) and Vinyasa Yoga. In addition you will also learn about meditation and mind-body awareness to expand the benefits of yoga beyond the physical. We will also practice some inversions to improve your hand stands and balance!

Regular yoga practice will improve your skill set, confidence, strength and flexibility! It’s no surprise that many of the most respected athletes / boxes in the UK / USA now include Yoga in their training schedules!

For information about how to book in for either Physio or yoga please speak to coaches David or Sarah!

Yoga for runners! New class starting Wednesday 7th January 2015 plus breakfast offer!

yogaforrunners

January is the month of fresh starts, new training programmes and setting goals!

It is also the month where is dawns on us that we signed up to or a got a place in a big marathon this year!

For runners, training re-starts after the Christmas and new year break. I see a lot of very new and very experienced runners coming in to Physio with niggles after getting back on the road or treadmill. Often one of the causes of ankle, knee hip and lower back pain is a lack of flexibility.

Run fast (http://www.run-fast.net/) know this and have started a ‘yoga for runners’ class at their store right in the City of london (http://www.run-fast-retail.net/) with Katrina Kurdy (http://katrinakurdy.com/yogainfo/).

Classes are well-rounded, with modifications given to make postures more accessible for beginners or more challenging for the experienced.  You’ll build strength, increase flexibility and there will always be a light-hearted inversion or hand-balance to keep it challenging and fun. This class is specifically tailored for runners so you can expect lots of core exercises, glutes work, stability and proprioception work.

Classes are £15 which includes a free coffee and breakfast! Can’t say fairer than that!

Please contact: hannah.walker@run-fast.net to book your place!
