Update on the Prison Yoga Project at HMP Bristol

Every week I volunteer as a yoga teacher at HMP Bristol. HMP Bristol is a Category B prison for men. Since 2021 I have gone in every Wednesday morning and offered classes to the men serving custodial sentences and a free lunch time yoga session for the staff. I have to say it is something I love doing and is the highlight of my week. In that time, we have given out 33 yoga mats; thank you to the generous donations of supporters, so that the men who regular attend and have developed a daily practice in their cells.

​

The exciting news is that on the 21st and 22nd February I will be delivering a two-day Yoga and Meditation 'Retreat' / Workshop, where we will breakdown the asana practice (postures), learn in depth meditation techniques, pranayama practices and yogic philosophy.

​

Really looking forward to having the time and space to really breakdown this wonderful practice.
