New Summer Term of Yoga starting next week! Hi I’m Carrie of Hope Yoga Yorkshire - I teach in Kirkby Malzeard Mechanics on a Wednesday morning and on a Friday afternoon, and in Jion Studios Ripon on a Saturday morning. I also offer 1:1 sessions if you’re recovering from an injury or needing that little bit of individual support. Classes are fun and friendly, we move, breathe (and wobble) together, sharing space and energy. Build strength and resilience from the inside out and become part of the Community. I am super proud to be sponsoring the no alcohol bar at this years Ripon Rugby Club Beer Festival and will be at the Karma Yoga and Wellness Day on the 20th June in the gardens of the Old Deanery.
For more information just drop me a message! Classes are £8 a session when you book the whole term or £10 a session to drop in.

YES!!!!!

Have you ever resisted using a yoga prop because it felt like you “shouldn’t need it”?

It’s such a common thing. Somewhere along the way, many of us picked up the idea that doing yoga “correctly” means doing it without support. No blocks, no straps, no blanket.

But what if that belief is actually getting in the way?

When we force our bodies into certain positions without support, we often compensate without realizing it. We hold our breath. We grip. We strain. And over time, that can pull us further away from the kind of practice that truly supports our body.

Props invite a different approach. They help you meet your body where it is today, not where you think it should be. They create space, reduce strain, and allow your nervous system to settle so your body can do the work more effectively.

There’s nothing “less than” about that.

If anything, it’s a more intentional, more sustainable way to practice.

If this idea challenges you even a little, you might enjoy my rant in this week’s episode of the Yoga for Longevity podcast, where I share more about why props deserve a second look.

Comment PODCAST to listen. 🎧

There’s so much more to flexibility than we think. So as I always say try not to beat yourself up about it. The brain particularly controls so much as we are wired for survival above all else!

Feel the need to move your body at the weekend? Perhaps I can help - Saturday Flow starts for the Easter Term this week - Come and join us on the mat at Jion Studios in Ripon for an hour of breath, movement and relaxation. Find strength and stability, lower your stress levels and deepen your mind body connection. All abilities welcome you don’t have to be flexible to do yoga, a body is all you need! All equipment is provided so you can just show up as you are. 9-10 am, £8 a class when you book the block or £10 to pick and choose when you attend.

Love this!! ❤️❤️❤️🧘🏼‍♀️❤️❤️❤️

This is why showing up matters.

Everyone arrives on their mats bringing something different. A different feeling, a different emotion, a different story... But what’s important is that we all show up together, move together and help each other connect in a safe space.

You never know what anyone’s story is, but yoga is a place to feel safe no matter what 🤍

It’s back bigger and better for 2026!!!! Get it in your diaries people!!! ❤️🙏🏻❤️🧘🏼‍♀️❤️🙏🏻❤️

The Ripon Wellness and Yoga Event is back this year and yes, I know it's still pretty far away but
I thought it would be a great idea to make you aware now so that if you missed it last year, or you loved it and would like to attend again, you can now put the date in your calendar.

Like last year, there will be events and classes throughout the day which are all free to attend.
Tickets for the Meditation Marquee will be released on the day on a first come first served basis, 1 hour before each event. We are allocating a much larger space to the meditation side of the event this year, so if you couldn't attend a certain event last year due to lack of space, then hopefully the goal this year is to make it so that doesn't happen as best we can.
We have changed the location this year to the Old Deanery in Ripon. This stunning space offers the perfect location to make this truly an event worth attending. We were so amazed and excited by the turn out last year and we've got a good feeling for this year from the interest already shown.
Will I be seeing any of you there? 👀
