The next course begins the week of Monday 13 February 2023

 

I have been working with The Florrie now for several years, my first ever class was here in March 2017! I am eternally grateful to them for giving me a start and how they have supported me throughout my journey to become a full time yoga teacher. 

 

So I am now delighted that they have invited me to put on three new courses at The Florrie, they are all as a result of the fall out from covid and lock down. If you have been affected in any way by covid, physically, mentally or emotionally then do get in touch and join us on these free 6 week courses. 

 

You can join one or all three. The course is running throughout the year until May 2023. Please contact me for a space on the next course: info@penjaliyoga.com
