Is it different from conventional yoga?

Yes.  It is FITNESS yoga.  It is not a spiritual experience, it is a contemporary approach to an ancient format.  FFY takes yoga postures and modifies them to be purely fitness-based.  Extreme postures are also avoided and there is no chanting or meditations.

Is there anyone that shouldn’t come to the class?

No under 16s and no pregnant ladies please.  Also, FFY is not recommended if you have a diagnosed back or joint condition.  It might also best avoided if you suffer from dizziness or fainting.  Please contact me if you need more information.

What will I gain from coming?

You should start to see benefits within 8 weeks.  You should see improvements in muscle strength and endurance, increased flexibility and stronger core stability muscles.  You may also see beneficial changes in your posture.  It is a brilliant way to tone up your entire body and also help prevent injuries due to the changes in your flexibility.
