This is a warm welcoming group for women and men. Mary is a gentle yoga teacher who has a very calm and soothing style and voice. We recently had a lovely social lunch together and got to know everyone better. The environment is cosy in winter and in summer the doors open allowing a lovely breeze. I always enjoy Marys yoga classes and like that everyone is made welcome. I am really enjoying yoga and being part of the weekly Thursday morning session.

Mary is a wonderful yoga teacher. She creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere where she empathetically attends to the needs of each of the classmates. She is fastidious in her slow and careful instructions; always mindful of the breath and its relationship to the movement. Recommend Mary for all levels; from beginners to experienced.

I have been attending classes at Peaceful Living Yoga for over 8 years and have always found the sessions to be both enjoyable and relaxing. After many years of active sports, I have found the focus on breathing and stretching highly beneficial as it has allowed me to remain active without ongoing medication.
Mary always offers different levels of participation and effort for each posture and there is never any pressure to compete with other class members or undertake an exercise which causes undue discomfort.
Mary is also acutely aware of any injuries or physical restrictions that each participant
