Diane is particularly good at tailoring her sessions to match her students, even when they are at different levels. I practised yoga for 8 years before coming to Diane and have learnt a great deal in time that I have been her student. Sally
Trumpington Pavilion, off Trumpington Road
Class description: These friendly hard-working Monday morning and lunchtime Iyengar yoga classes are suitable for beginners and experienced students alike. Emphasis is on improving posture, strength, flexibility, and relaxation. Bookable only during term-time, drop-in sessions available in the summer holidays.
I began attending Eight yoga classes because of lower back problems. Thanks to Diane’s patient guidance, my flexibility has increased and my back problems have gone.

Concessions:
Intended for those who would genuinely be unable to pay the full fee, e.g. receiving income-related benefit.
Missed classes:
Unfortunately it is not possible to refund or carry over any missed classes to another block. You may be able to attend another class within the same block, provided there is a space available.
Was feeling old and creaky and am much improved by Diane's fantastic yoga group. Am much more flexible and stronger too, it often feels like a real work out - I highly recommend it.
