Village resident, Leon Lord already successfully runs Pilates, Qigong, Wing Chun Kung Fu and Personal Fitness classes in the village and surrounding areas. He now offers Taoist/Yin Yoga classes.
Yin yoga uses passive, longer-held poses to work deeply into the body. Targeting the deep tissue of the body, our connective tissues – ligaments, joints, tendons and the deep fascia networks of the body.
The reason it is called Taoist or Yin Yoga is because the theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine is applied to it. That’s the same theory behind Acupuncture, Qigong, Tai Chi and more.
Yin yoga improves the energy flow within the body, enhancing the flow of Chi in the organs. This encourages us to have healthy, balanced organs as well as healthy muscles. There are also emotional and mental health benefits.
Leon’s Yin yoga class will consist of a series of passive floor postures that you will hold for up to 5 minutes and sometimes longer with the use of breath and mindful connection.
Blocks and bolsters are used regularly to help relax in to the stretches, he will provide these in class.
At the end of the sessions there will be around 10mins of mindful meditation.
Spaces are limited! To book – Click HERE.

Broadwindsor Community Film Club will be showing King Richard (12) at the Comrades Hall on Friday, 18th March at 7.30pm.
Directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and starring Will Smith, Aunjanue Ellis, Jon Bernthal, Saniyya Sidney and Demi Singleton.
Armed with a clear vision and a brazen 78-page plan, Richard Williams is determined to write his daughters, Venus and Serena, into history. Training on Compton, California’s neglected tennis courts – rain or shine – the girls are shaped by their father’s unyielding commitment and their mother’s balanced perspective and keen intuition, defying the seemingly insurmountable odds and prevailing expectations laid before them.
Based on the true story that will inspire the world, “King Richard” follows the uplifting journey of a family whose unwavering resolve and unconditional belief ultimately delivers two of the world’s greatest sport legends.
Today is Tuesday, being called Twosday because of the date.
22.02.2022 is both a palindrome (reads the same forwards and backwards) and a ambigram (on a calculator it reads the same upside down). More twos to be seen at twenty two minutes and 22 seconds past ten this evening: 22:22:22
The date is unqique in that it last happened once before, more than a thousand years ago on 11.01.1011. There will never be a 33.03.3033 as there is not month with 33 days in it.
The palindome has only happened twice before on 1.11.11 and 11.11.11. The next one will occur in 11 years, as Threesday – 3.3.33.
In 100 years, there will be a 22.2.22. There will also be the 22.2.2222, but that will fall on a Friday.
Across the world, Twosday is a lighthearted date and one to be celebrated as its next occurrence won’t be until the next millennium.
In numerology, the 222 sequence of numbers are often referred to as Angel Numbers. Also, the number 2 in numerology references the energy of duality, partnership, relationship and balance. The key lessons when dealing with the number 2 are generally centered around compromise, acceptance, compassion, cooperation and harmony.
Today is also World Thinking Day…
Celebrated since 1926, World Thinking Day is a day of international friendship. It is an opportunity to speak out on issues that affect young women and fundraise for 10 million Girl Guides and Girl Scouts in 150 countries.
