**Join us for a nourishing 7-week yoga journey exploring the body's seven main chakras.** ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷

Each week, we’ll focus on one chakra, weaving its unique energy and qualities into our practice through mindful movement, breathwork, and intention.

Expect uplifting yoga flows designed to build strength, balance, and flexibility, alongside grounding moments of stillness to soothe the mind and invite deep relaxation. As we move through each chakra—from the grounding root to the expansive crown—you’ll gain a deeper connection to yourself, your body, and your inner energy.

Whether you're new to chakras or looking to deepen your existing practice, this course offers a supportive and uplifting space for growth and self-discovery.

**No previous chakra knowledge needed—just bring your curiosity and an open heart.**  ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷

Gail Leadbetter

Lovely hour with Emma, muscles stretched and mind relaxed. 

Anne Paul

This is my second  term with Emma which I have enjoyed immensely. 1 had done yoga for many years pre covid but had not gone back to a class for the last 4 years I have fallen . back into it with the easy natural way Emma teaches. Not only is she one of the best yoga instructors I have had but a thoroughly nice person. Great personal skills as well as having the most amazing hands for our end of class massage. I look forward to the class every week.

Where did you hear about this event?

I agree to these terms and conditions.

In any physical activity, risk of injury is possible. I am aware of the physical risks involved with exercise and understand it is my personal responsibility to consult with my doctor regarding my participation. I release the teacher and Balanceworks Yoga from any liability claims and I assume responsibility for any risk or injury I may sustain as a result of my participation in this class. I understand that it is my responsibility to find a pace that suits me.

Join us for a friendly and welcoming **Chair Yoga** class designed for **everyone** – whether you're new to yoga, working with limited mobility, recovering from injury, or just looking for a gentler way to stretch and strengthen.

Using the support of a chair, we explore mindful movement, breath awareness, and relaxation in a way that’s safe, accessible, and enjoyable. You’ll improve flexibility, balance, and posture while calming the mind and boosting your mood. A chair offers a stable base for less mobile individuals and is highly adaptable to the physical needs of a variety of disabilities and injuries, such as people with special needs who have varying degrees of physical disability. Chair yoga can also benefit people with other conditions, like high blood pressure; anxiety; chronic fatigue syndrome; arthritis; multiple sclerosis; depression; and chronic pain. Also suitable for those with mobility issues including wheelchair users.

Expect a light-hearted, supportive atmosphere where you can go at your own pace. Come as you are – all ages, all bodies, all levels welcome!

'121 Yoga' - building a bespoke programme to meet your yoga goals

121 Yoga

Would you like to improve wellbeing and performance in your workplace? Studies prove that having an opportunity at the beginning or middle of a work day to move, mobilise and stretch the body can increase mental clarity, creativity, focus and productivity for the rest of the day. In-work yoga sessions are also a great incentive/ reward to be able to offer to your employees.

Our yoga sessions provide the perfect opportunity for you and your colleagues to take a moment out of the day to recharge, refresh and rebalance in body and mind. We normally include some strength and mobility work, energising movement flows, breathwork and mindfulness but can tailor the sessions to what works best for you and your business.

We can provide mats, blocks and equipment (for up to 20), you just need to provide the space. We can work around equipment to an extent. As long as you can create a bit of floor space, we can get people yoga-ing! Option for Chair Yoga too if that suits your layout/ colleagues better. We are happy to lead a session for as many people as your space allows, the price remains the same.

Contact Emma on balanceworksyoga1@gmail.com or 07905 281629 for more information and pricing. Prices start from £110 but depend on length, frequency and location of class. Discounts available for booking a block of sessions.

Or simply select a date and time that suits you and we will be in touch to arrange the rest and discuss payment options.

We look forward to bringing the magic of yoga to refresh and revitalise your workplace. Find out more today!

Renew & Revive Spring Yoga Afternoon

Sally Dexter

Emma understands everyone's ability and needs and personally I was in alot of pain when I started yoga 7 weeks ago.  I feel relaxed and energised after the sessions and I'm able to move easier and have less pain.  I am gradually able to do each movement better over time, it has also been an opportunity to meet other people.

Remember, if you are unable to make a class at your usual location, you may change to another location that week (subject to availability). Just drop me a message to let me know. 

A refund can be issued with a minimum of 48 hours notice, and we are happy for you to reschedule your class to a later date with a minimum of 24 hours notice.

Hi, my name is Emma and I have been practising yoga for over 20 years, on and off.  After many years of running and attending various circuits/ bootcamp style classes, about 10 years ago I rediscovered yoga and remembered how powerful it is at helping so many areas of my life.  Not just the physical side of improving my flexibility and reducing my chances of injury and pain, but also more importantly encouraging me to slow down and even 'stop' for a moment (something I found very difficult without feeling guilty!).  Sometimes my favourite part of a class was the Savasana relaxation at the end as I was being given permission to relax, something I wouldn't do on my own!

Eventually I started taking some different courses to further my yoga journey, from courses in inversions/ handstands (covid obsession!) to foundation courses teaching me more about the philosophy and history behind yoga.  I found that every single thing I learned about yoga I LOVED and just wanted to learn more, hence finally taking the plunge and embarking on my 200hr Yoga Teaching Training with akarmalife studio in Ampthill in 2023.

I have been a primary school music teacher for 20 years and although loved working with children, I knew I needed a change so decided to set up yoga classes locally, trying to introduce yoga to as many different people as possible.  I love welcoming anyone and everyone to my classes, enjoying the challenge of adapting a class to anyone who wants to come along and give it a go, hence introducing my popular Yoga for All class.

Eventually, I plan to set up some different styles of classes, once I have got to know my clients and understand what they need and like.  But for now, I kind of like a whole range of local people coming together, from different backgrounds, experiences and ages (current youngest is 13 and oldest is 79!). It really is Yoga for All and everyone is most welcome.

Discover Balanceworks Yoga, where we can help you to harness the power of yoga to build a more harmonious life.  Our philosophy is rooted in kindness towards yourself, embracing the idea that our yoga practice is a journey, not a destination.  Yoga is also so much more than just physical movements; we like to include some exercise and space for the mind and breath in all our classes and opportunities for them all to connect together.

It is important that everyone feels welcome and included in our classes and understands that it is not the goal for everyone to look the same, but for us all to find what feels good for our bodies and minds.  We therefore encourage the use of blocks and props to enable everyone to be able to access all the poses at a level that works for them.

Join us at any of the lovely local venues around Bedford to experience the benefits of yoga and let it positively influence your life.
