About Me, Helen Grenfell

Yoga classes for all stages of life, in beautiful surrounding. Dad is 93 years and my son 30. My style adapts the yoga to suit.

I am passionate about teaching yoga to support your growth and clearing stuff getting in the way of being joyful and pain free.

I originally came to yoga to fix a very painful back condition. I found that the yoga not only fixed my back but gave me a greater sense of enjoyment and peacefulness. I have enjoyed teaching my community the joys of yoga and sharing the sense of well being that a yoga practice can instil.

    1. Hi Suzanne
      Classes cost $15 cash pay as you go, bring the right change If you can.

      Day classes are down the back of the land near the river. If you can bring a blanket that would be great. Even a mat if have one.

      If you come to an evening class it inside the hall spread out every 2 metres apart.

      The car park is behind the home down a long drive.

      Namaste

  1. Hi, I was wondering if you are able to do a personalised program/ routine to help with andometriosis and opening the pelvic region.

    1. Hi Siouxane I do one on one yoga therapy at $65 hour, not an expert in treating endometriosis but I know that postures to open the pelvic region and technique to tone down the pain maybe helpful.
