Yoga and Lunch in Porlock

Thursday 24th October 10am – 1pm. Cost £30.

Pause a while to breathe, stretch, move and relax.

A luxurious yoga session will be followed with a delicious, warming lunch.

I’m also really excited to be offering shiatsu treatments at New Place in Porlock, so everybody who comes to the yoga morning will be offered a half price shiatsu session at a later date.
