One of the worlds most practiced spiritual disciplines. Developed over thousands of years these sessions concentrate on bringing balance and harmony to both body and mind, through postures and breath. They can help to boost the immune system, encourage relaxation and correct posture alignment.

Places are strictly limited to 15 and are available on a first come first served basis. Please email events@hestercombe.com to book your place.
