It was another #fitnessinfluencers day out for us all on Monday. This week we were invited to Move Yoga Harrogate to take part in an Introduction to Yoga taster class.
Move Yoga Harrogate is a fun and friendly yoga studio, located right in the heart of Harrogate towncentre. Their purpose is to offer a safe, welcoming space to share the wisdom of yoga and the gift of community. They have classes for all levels offered by loving and experienced teachers.
Our teacher for the class was Alissa. For anyone considering taking up Yoga for the first time she runs regular Introduction to Yoga courses, with the next one starting on Monday!
For those of you already familiar with yoga, there are classes throughout the day and evening – you can see their full time table here.
I’ve been coming to Alissa’s classes for years now – I cannot recommend her classes enough. I started on the Introduction to Yoga series and have been hooked ever since! I regularly go to her morning class – I mean I even get up for her 7.30am Wednesday classes – so I must REALLY like them! There is a lovely vibe before class starts, where we all usually chat about puppies! Classes themselves vary, depending on the type of class, but i guarantee you will leave which ever class you attend with a spring in your step!
This is what our lovely #fitnessinfluencers thought of the class:
” I thought Alissa was really approachable, friendly. She made me feel completely relaxed and at ease whilst explaining all the movements in a way I could relate to.” Jen
“Alissa is incredibly friendly and instantly made me feel at ease. I’m a newbie to Yoga, but she took time to explain the basics. For each move there was an easy and also more challenging modification – this helped everyone go at their own pace. It was a great class & I’m looking forward to going back soon!” Sally
“It was my first time doing any form of yoga so I was nervous. Alissa was so friendly that my nerves disappeared instantly. I love the way she explained each move and gave us options to make it harder if we felt comfortable doing so. I learnt a lot in the session and would definitely recommend.” Evie
“Really enjoyed the class, I’ve only done a yoga class once before and felt totally out my depth! But not this time, Alissa was fantastic as explaining all the moves, and stressed that we should only stretch as far as felt comfortable. Will definitely be booking the beginners course.” Delly
“I’ve done a small amount of Yoga previously but nothing on a regular basis and loved how well Alissa explained everything to us, she also gave you the reason why it was so important too! I left feeling chilled out and felt it had totally eased some aching muscles.” Emma
