✅Peer connection, learning, and reflection
✅Collective visibility through Coop communications and activities

Meet our Coop member Barbara Sunchaser! A trauma-informed yoga teacher based in Banbury, Oxfordshire, offering yoga, mobility, and rest practices through the Oxford Wellbeing Coop.

Her work is rooted in accessibility, inclusion, and creating welcoming spaces for people who may have felt excluded from mainstream wellness environments.

Drawing on advanced yoga training and specialist trauma-sensitive approaches, Barbara supports people to connect with movement and rest in ways that feel safe, sustainable, and empowering. She is particularly passionate about challenging the performative and diet-culture narratives often associated with fitness and wellbeing, and instead centres care, choice, and individual experience in her teaching.

Barbara offers regular group classes in Banbury, including Yoga for Mobility, Yoga for Balance, Yoga for Stress Relief, and monthly Slow Down Sunday sessions, alongside one-to-one and small group yoga support.
