This is Yoga for Men, led by a man. Jamie has over 13 years experience teaching Yoga, and has shaped a practice that whilst keeping to Yoga's philosophical origins has grown into a modern day, Science backed safe practice. This is a space where men can get together, stretch, strengthen, improve flexibility and gain focus. No fluff, No Namastes, just straight forward, grounded Yoga for the modern times.

This is your time to move mindfully, laugh a little, breathe a lot, and maybe impress yourself with your sneaky flexibility. Whether you’re a lifelong yogi or just curious about what all the fuss is with “that mindful movement stuff,” this class is built for real bodies, real joints, and real joy.
What to expect:
Gentle, feel-good stretches for stiffness, creakiness, and “what even is that ache?”
Balance work (yes, you can use the chair)
Breathing and mindfulness for clarity, calm, and maybe remembering where you put your keys
A zero-pressure zone where giggles are welcome
Mat or chair? You choose. Up to you. The only rule: move in a way that feels good for you.
Over 60’s Yoga & Mindful Movement:
Because you're seasoned, not slowing down—and your nervous system deserves a spa day.

A steady, confidence‑building class designed to help men over 60 stay strong, mobile and active. We focus on functional strength, joint-friendly mobility work and accessible stretching to support everyday movement, balance and overall wellbeing. Expect clear guidance, a supportive atmosphere and a pace that meets you exactly where you are.

For those who don’t know me yet, I'm Jamie and I’ve been teaching yoga for 14 years, and over that time I’ve had the privilege of working one-to-one with many wonderful people on a therapeutic level. Supporting seniors to move with more ease, reduce pain, rebuild confidence and reconnect with their bodies has become some of the most meaningful work I do — and I’ve seen truly fantastic results.
All sessions take place at our beautiful home, the Uppermill Community Yoga and Wellbeing Centre, right in the heart of Uppermill. It’s a warm, tranquil and safe space where you can feel completely supported from the moment you arrive.
I’m now taking bookings for one-to-one yoga therapy appointments. If you or someone you care about would benefit from gentle, personalised support tailored specifically to senior needs, I’d love to welcome you into the space.

The United Kingdoms first Kids Yoga Academy for 7-11 year olds, where children can progress through various stages/levels of Hatha Yoga and get recognised for their progression through gradings.

Poses and movements that makes sense — for your body, your brain, and your curiosity
This isn’t mystical fluff or “just stretch and breathe.” This is yoga grounded in real science — where movement meets modern understanding of anatomy, the nervous system, and the way our bodies actually work (and feel).
Whether you're brand new or a seasoned mover, this class is designed to be accessible, inclusive, and rooted in evidence — without losing the joy of simply moving like a human.
What to expect:
Dynamic, adaptable poses and movements that work with your body.
Easy-to-understand explanations of how yoga and breathwork affect your nervous system, joints, muscles, mind and beyond.
No Sanskrit needed. No assumptions. Just clear, universal language.
If you've ever wanted to understand why yoga feels good (or why it doesn’t sometimes), and how to move in a way that supports your whole self — this is your lab, your playground, and your permission slip.
Yoga for curious minds, thoughtful movers, and every kind of body.

Get your body, breath and mind synced in this refreshing Yoga Flow style class explained with modern science. If you can get up and down on the mat, don't mind being upside down, and want to increase your strength, flexibility, stamina and focus then this is the class for you.

A nourishing gentle restorative Yoga class to help you wind down your week and enjoy Friday and the weekend ahead. All abilities welcome. Ending the session with a short Indian inspired Soundbath on our genuine Indian Instrument the 'Swar Sangham'. Enjoy deep Indian Tanpura vibrations with gentle Indian Harp.
