Alternatives Therapy Limited specialise in: 

• Yoga for Beginners: Students new to Yoga will be given plenty of teaching points, support and time to adjust their alignment in postures. In addition they will be taught different breathing techniques and how to meditate, to aid their practice. 

• Vinyasa Yoga: This practice combines movement with breath to flow from one posture to another.

• Restorative Yoga: This yoga practice uses props such as bolsters, blocks, blankets so the student may hold fewer postures for longer to totally relax the body and clear the mind.

• Reiki Yoga: This is a really popular class as it combines reiki with yoga, balancing your seven chakra energies, whilst holding individual Yin postures for up to five minutes. Students leave the session feeling totally cleansed and balanced.
