On this page:
This is a 10 week course for the Beginner. The second 5 weeks is also the Restarters Course. Each class lasts for 1 1/2 hours. You can register your interest here if you have missed the current course. For the Autumn 2003 Course, it starts at 8:00 pm on Thursdays from 9th October in Chiseldon at the School. See the eBrochure for this course. Should you wish to continue your Yoga after the end
of your course, you may continue at the Improvers Class or Posture-cise class.

- From Swindon, take the A419 south to the M4 (Junction 15) and continue straight over on the A346 towards Marlborough. From the motorway

Just go to the Enrolment Page for details of how to join. You can pay on-line using your credit card by clicking the PayPal buttons above. (More information on PayPal)
What to Wear & Bring
Please look at the wear & bring section on Don’s Yoga Classes page. As a minimum
you really only need to wear loose comfortable clothing, and preferably have a blanket to keep warm in relaxation. Also check the advice on how to prepare yourself.
If you are serious about embarking on a yogic path, you will greatly benefit from having your own non-slip yoga mat, block and belt so you can continue your practice at home. Follow this link - you can add these items to your on-line order and I will bring them to class.
