The Yoga Cloud is the brain-child of Helen Glen who splits her time between being a dance and drama teacher at Alderley Edge School for Girls and teaching yoga in Cheshire and Alderley Edge.
You only have to spend a short while with Helen and you'll find that you're feeling relaxed and at ease. Drawing on all her experience as a dancer, teacher, mum and wife Helen creates an environment that offers an oasis to look forward to every week whether you are a new or experienced yogi, a sports person, prospective mum, mum-to-be or part of the growing band of teens and young adults letting go of the stresses of exams through the Yoga Cloud (watch this space for more info on that and events in the area!).
Walk into one of the Yoga Cloud classes and you'll see rugby players and golfers, doctors and scientists mixing with those who are new to and those who have yoga in their lives for years.
Helen says "We are delighted to announce the arrival of our classes in and around Alderley Edge. The Yoga Cloud offers a welcoming, safe environment and is proud to offer inspiring teaching whatever your experience, size, shape or need. Our teaching is clear, well planned and safe with a sense of humour and a smile (oh and some green/ginger tea and a very eclectic playlist to "bliss out to!). We aim to share the teachings of yoga both on and off the mat with a range of classes there's one to suit your individual needs.
"...but I'm not bendy!" is the statement I hear often from people approaching yoga for the first time. Please be assured that you do not need to be able to wrap your legs around your head or balance on your fingertips.... An open heart and mind is all you need, who knows where that might lead!!?? "
