Ashtanga Yoga Plymouth

I have been attending Karens' classes on Zoom, and I am so grateful to her and the classes she teaches each week. They have been my saving grace and made a huge difference to my body during my recovery from trauma related difficulties. My body has been under huge stress and 6 months ago I could hardly move and was in so much pain. My body is now getting stronger and is coping better with triggers and is more flexible, I have lost weight, and it is definitely beginning to balance out. I feel s...

I’m suggesting Ashtanga Yoga to all my friends and I definitely recommend it.

Can’t recommend Ashtanga Yoga with Karen highly enough. I’ve been going once a week for 10 months now, starting from a pretty low base line, as a 64 year old man having had major abdominal surgery, resulting in a colostomy and a stoma.
