Open Day 12 Oct 2019

Posted on September 18, 2019

Free Classes, Tea & Cakes and Meet the Teachers

As part of the Bristol Yoga Trail 2019, Yogawest are opening our doors and offering free classes all day long. We invite you to come along, take a tour of our beautiful building, chat to some teachers and try a taster class or two.

yogawest-BYT-169_LRCome at least 10 minutes before the start time so you can register with us and secure your place. Some classes may be busy, and some may fill up before the start time, so do arrive in good time!

 

Timetable of FREE classes at Yogawest

9.30–10.45 Beginners

Donations to OTR

Local TV coverage of the Trail

Bristol TV came to talk to us about the Bristol Yoga Trail, many thanks to Katy and the Tuesday morning class!

 

We look forward to seeing you then!

Weather Impact on Classes (March 2nd & 3rd)

Posted on March 1, 2018

The heating is on 24/7 and classes are running!

STOP PRESS: all weekend classes running as per online timetable.

Yogawest is currently fully open, with all classes running as per the online timetable, which is where we will post any updates: check the comments box next to your class for latest info, or call us to check on 0117 924 3330.

The heating is on permanently and so far the studios are coping well with the cold snap, but you may want to wear an extra layer and a pair of grippy socks in class!

And because Denmark Place is unlikely to be gritted, please be careful on your way in.

Teacher Training this weekend

The training weekend (March 2–4) is going ahead. Some participants have already travelled from afar, and many others are local (snow boots on!), so we are not cancelling it at this stage.

However, we would advise you to make your own decision as to whether it is sensible and safe to travel to us, and completely understand if you cannot make it.

We will email all trainees as soon as (and if) the situation changes.
