Yoga

Would you like to feel fitter? More flexible? More relaxed? More at ease with your body? More able to adjust to life’s challenges?

Then come and join me on the mat for yoga.

I teach a combination of Hatha, Vinyasa Flow & Yin from my garden studio in Cuffley, Hertfordshire.
My classes are suitable for all levels and experience; even the complete beginner.
At the heart of my teaching is the importance of taking time out. I want to inspire you to feel the best you possibly can and taking control of your self-care, putting yourself first is that first step!

If you are ready to embark on your yoga journey you can join me in several ways.

Either by joining one of my timetabled classes (in the studio or online). My studio classes are no bigger than 5 so I can give you full support and adjustments allowing you to flourish in your practice. It’s the perfect space if you don’t feel comfortable in large gyms and studios.

If you are completely new or returning to yoga and would benefit from more guidance, we can work one to one, either in person or online.

There are 5 weekly timetabled classes to choose from covering Gently Stretch, Stretch & Flow or Yinyasa Flow.

A couple of times a month I run a longer Self-Care weekend session which is all about slowing down. We do a shorter, usually floor based practice with an emphasis on stretching followed by a Yoga Nidra, a sleep-based meditation practice. It’s the most perfect way to recharge your batteries.

What people say

I have been going to Francesca for Yoga for a few years now so when lockdown began it would have been a huge part of my exercise, relaxation and mindfulness that I was missing. Having online classes has been amazing. I have actually been doing more. I’m missing the personal touches and hands on that you can only get at the actual classes but having the weekly online classes, expertly run with the same emphasis on working with your own body had been much needed and very successful. Even with the chronic problems I have, I really look forward to this each week.

Thank you for another fabulous zoom yoga class. Wednesday morning yoga has become the highlight of my week. As someone who has only recently rediscovered yoga, I find your class particularly helpful. The pace is spot on, your instructions are clear and easy to follow (essential for an online class!) and your teaching style is informative, inclusive and encouraging.

I have been a client of Fran’s for over a year now and before lockdown would attend her in-person classes in her studio, now thank goodness for the online yoga classes via zoom. I can highly recommend Fran. She is clear and precise which is important for an online class and often adding a tip which helps with the poste and to adjust yourself correctly. I have also joined a Yoga Nidra class which has been held every other week, which is very relaxing. The classes have really helped me to stay positive and uplifted in a very unsettling time. I usually do three classes per week and each time there is something new to learn. Thank you Fran and I look forward to my next class.

Fran has been running online yoga classes since lockdown. She is still as professional and committed to our yoga experience as if we were in the studio with her. Her classes are aimed at all levels of experience and she gives alternatives so that everyone can do something. In the uncertainty of lockdown Fran has been a calming and relaxing influence.

My zoom yoga with Fran is the time when everything comes to a halt and I just relax and clear my mind. It has especially helped through lockdown.

Having my online yoga to look forward to every week has been like a lifeline for me in these hard times. The zoom classes with Fran are always varied and well explained, moves and postures catered to everyone’s abilities. Thank you Fran.

Thank you for another great hour on the mat with the ‘well deserved’ relaxation at the end of the session.

I was at first apprehensive about practicing yoga via zoom, but you have shown that with the right person guiding you it is nothing to be concerned about. Your sessions are professional, encouraging,
varied and sometimes challenging but you always provide us with options for the way we are feeling, and advising us to adjust our positioning when necessary.

Out of all my online classes be it yoga, Pilates or personal training my yoga sessions with Fran have been by far the best and most enjoyable.

Once I feel comfortable about returning to the studio, I also plan to continue with an additional session online.

Thank you again.
