Feel Better Gentle Exercise Class – Wednesday 9:30am

Email feelbetter@active-eat.co.uk to book the Wednesday sessions

These classes are especially suited for those with chronic pain, arthritis or MSK conditions and will help you manage your pain, stretch, and relax.

Sitting and standing options are given for all postures, making it accessible for all. The classes are given by Jenny Oakenfull of Active-Eat. We start each class with mindfulness, followed by some some gentle exercises which also incorporate elements that are similar to Tai Chi and yoga, and then finishes with relaxation and a short discussion of topics of interest such as nutrition to help with chronic pain – or just a general group support chat. This is a difficult time for many people and if you find yourself dealing with anger, stress, frustration, and feelings of hopelessness then we think these classes can help – stress and health issues can go hand in hand.

These sessions are fully funded by Sport England for those that need (no questions will be asked).

For those that are able, a four-week subsidised pass can be purchased at the following discretionary tiered rates:

  • £25 for 4 weeks (£5 per week + buy a week for someone else)
  • £20 for 4 weeks (£5 per week)
  • £8 for 4 weeks (£2 per week)
  • £4 for 4 weeks (£1 per week)
  • Free Pass

Purchasing any of the above passes supports the sustainability of these sessions and will allow them to continue beyond the scope of the initial funding award. If you would like to book a second class, this will be £5 per session.

The session includes a weekly video of the class so you can either catch up if you miss a class or you can practice the lesson as many times as you like during the week. The sessions also include some free online resources to help you continue practicing at home.

Mini Retreat @ Home

When life feels a bit out of control and nothing is quite what you are used then find a quiet spot at home and escape to our mini retreat @ home.

This mini retreat will help release tension, leaving you feeling relaxed and calm. We will centre the body and mind through 1.5 amazing hours of Dru yoga, relaxation and breathing techniques. There will be a chance to chat and spend time with like-minded people.

You will experience elements of yoga that you don’t usually get the chance to in a weekly class. The key is to enjoy an element of yoga that helps you stretch, de-stress and embrace some ‘me’ time. They are a great way to expand and compliment your regular yoga practice; or are equally great to do as standalone sessions, even if you’ve never done yoga before.

The mini retreats are suitable for all levels and abilities, including complete beginner; they are aimed at restoring balance in your body, helping you to build strength and stamina while also enjoying a relaxing and rejuvenating experience.

What is Dru Yoga?

Many people appreciate Dru because anyone can do it, regardless of age, body shape or ability. Dru is a graceful and potent form of yoga. It is based on soft flowing movements, directed breathing and visualisation. It is deeply relaxing and rejuvenating, yet it can take you to any level of fitness you’d like, improving your strength, flexibility and building core stability.

Using classical yoga postures, sequences, breathing, relaxation and meditation techniques we help you keep mind, body and soul healthy and in balance. Dru is designed to work with your body not against. So you will never push yourself into a position you are not comfortable in or over stretch the body. You will learn to techniques to listen to your body and respond to what it needs.

Booking a Mini Retreat @ Home:

There is a maximum of 15 students, so there will be plenty of time to create a tailored experience

Cost £15, get in touch to book on
