YinYan Wellbeing CIC had a pop-up wellbeing hub in Metro, the thriving contemporary office in Hammersmith, with classes open to the wider community via the good people at Hammersmith BID – unfortunately public access to our classes has had to stop, and now classes in Metro are only open to people that work in the building.
If we open up any future health & wellbeing sessions to the wider community then we will post full details here on this page and on our social media – if you have any query please email [email protected] or contact us.
In the meantime everyBODY is still welcome to enjoy and feel the benefit of our friendly & welcoming online classes on the schedule below (anything with “LIVE ONLINE” in the class title on the schedule):
BEGINNERS & MEDICAL CONDITIONS – our classes are for all levels. Always let us/your teacher know of any injuries/medical conditions so we can keep you safe! If you have pain/stiffness you have a lot to gain but use caution and seek advice from your GP. Our Yoga & Pilates classes are not suitable if you are pregnant.
FINANCES – we are a not-for-profit Community Interest Company and 100% of our profits go towards helping as many people as possible to improve their health & happiness as much as possible.
Online Classes
When you book an online class your teacher will text you a link / Zoom Meeting ID & password before class, then go to www.zoom.us/join and say hello – bonus if you have a Zoom account/download the app but you don’t need to pay anything. It’s live & interactive so you can see & hear the teacher – and talk back.
– Find a space you can practice & roll out your yoga mat, blanket or rug – it’s useful to have a block or cushions handy (beginners & anybody who has had back/knee problems should sit on these for seated postures).
– Balance your laptop, tablet, phone or TV where you can see it – it’s really useful for the teacher to be able to see you during class but everybody else can see you too so you can switch your camera off if you like.
– When you join the class on Zoom we recommend that you “pin” or highlight the teachers’ screen so you can see them clearly as they demonstrate through the class.
– Feel free to set up your own back ground music if you like, it’s nice to set the mood sometimes and you can pick the tunes, just press play when the teacher mutes you when the class begins.
– Just do what you can as gently as you like, if anything doesn’t feel right just miss it out!
– Live & interactive classes are surprisingly similar to in person classes, nice people getting together to do good stuff, it’s what we do!
