Yoga for Recovery – Level 1 (60 mins)

A gentle, supportive class for safe, confident movement.

Beginner / gentle · In-studio · Duration: 60 minutes

Yoga for Recovery is designed for students who need a gentler, more supportive approach to movement. It is ideal if you are recovering from injury, managing limited mobility, or looking for the most accessible way to begin or continue your yoga practice.

This class focuses on safe alignment, controlled movement, steady breathing, and building confidence in your body. The aim is not to push or strain, but to help you maintain and gradually improve flexibility, balance, and strength at a pace that feels right for you.

Who should attend this class?

Yoga for Recovery is for anyone but is particularly suited to:

  • Students recovering from injury

  • Anyone managing reduced mobility or long-term physical limitations

  • Those returning to movement after illness

  • Beginners who would prefer the most gentle introduction to yoga

  • Students who want to maintain mobility and strength without intense physical challenge

For some, this class is a stepping stone back to more demanding practice. For others, it becomes their long-term home — a steady, sustainable way to care for their body.

There is no expectation to move beyond this level. The focus is on feeling better, moving better, and maintaining the best strength and flexibility available to you.
