People think of Yoga as being all about stretching and perhaps meditating but Yoga therapy is a way of creating healthy movement patterns to prevent injuries or address existing problems. It actually has very little to do with the yoga people believe they know; there will be no Down Dogs or Warriors. In fact, even if you have never practised yoga in your life, this course may be beneficial to you due to its different, unique approach.
This 4-week course will focus on spinal health – all the way from the back and shoulders down to the hips and pelvis (with everything in between!).
Who is this course for?
- People who experience pain or discomfort anywhere in their backs or hips.
- People who have healthy backs and want to maintain them that way by strengthening all the correct muscles and using proper alignment when standing, sitting, walking, running, etc.
- People who want to improve their posture.
- People who have or have had in the past injuries/weaknesses/imbalances in their cervical (neck), thoracic (mid back), lumbar (lower back) spine or hips/pelvis.
Who is your Instructor?
Tatiana is a qualified yoga teacher who has been practising yoga for 25 years and has been teaching it for the past 4 years. She teaches a variety of classes and styles, but particularly enjoys sharing her passion for yoga with the beginners and makes her classes accessible to different levels and abilities. Tatiana has been with Walnut Grove since 2022 where she has taught previous Yoga classes and provides 1-2-1 Yoga teaching too.
With your permission, she can speak with your practitioner, if you were referred to this course by them, to obtain any pertinent information regarding your medical history to help keep you injury-free and protected during the course, which aims to leave you feeling stronger and empowered.
Tatiana holds a safe and nourishing space in which her students can develop strength, stamina and flexibility while listening to their bodies.
Course Details
- Dates: October 6th to 27th Registration will close on September 30th, so get in touch to secure your spot sooner rather than later as spaces are limited.

- Cost: £60 for the 4 week course
- Location: Walnut Grove STUDIO (81 Papermill Gardens, Portishead BS20 7RL)
As with all our classes at Walnut Grove, for the maximum benefit of the programme to you, this will be a small group class (4-6 people) therefore spaces are limited. This enables the teacher-to-pupil ratio to be kept low so that you gain more attention and access from the teacher to enable any corrections necessary.
Please note: You need to commit to the whole course, but should you miss a class, the teacher will send you a recording of a similar class to practice on your own.
