We have provided yoga and meditation classes to those in challenging circumstances, financial and otherwise who may not have previously considered it as a way to relieve stress and mitigate mental and physical health issues, helping them move towards well-being. This year, those who previously attended during previous years have helped us to sustain solid attendance with higher class numbers , bolstered by new arrivals including their friends and associates. During this years project, as a result of our discovering through previous projects that a good proportion of attendees with neuro-diverse conditions, we have made this our focus , running a series of classes in conjunction with The Aspergers Society specifically targeting this group. We provided Kundalini yoga incorporating dynamic yoga and breath work. This year our stake-holders in the community, have included other social enterprises and wellbeing teachers and practitioners, our old friends Silver Road Community Centre and The Phoenix Centre, community groups that provide a wealth of services and access a large swathe of people in need. We have worked with local yoga studios such as Happy Om as well as the homelessness charity the Feed, backed by Norwich City Council. We have worked together to make yoga and wellbeing more often accessible, in local areas of social deprivation where the population incudes people with disabilities. Our classes have continued to be inclusive and welcoming. There has been more of an emphasis on restorative classes in response to demand and we provided a series of classes where people were able to rest in longer supported postures using props and blankets , tailored to individual need , catering for physical conditions like arthritis, autoimmune and other illnesses like ME, Fibromyalgia and long Covid. Feedback from our attendees has confirmed that those with stress-related mental health conditions like anxiety and depression have appreciated our therapeutic sound and gong baths and deeper meditation where they have been immersed in healing sound waves. At the beginning of the period we offered a run of classes with Ivana a Happy Om teacher, a specialist in Mantra and Tantra and Ayurvida which have proved very popular two years running. We have targeted a hard to reach group for this kind of activity, older men, with classes taught by someone who himself discovered yoga and trained as a teacher later in life and has a passion to pass on his knowledge with yoga for everybody classes. The sustainability of our organisation has been growing during this year through donations and ongoing participation. We have had support in running our project from loyal volunteers who are committed to wellbeing through yoga. We have networked with the yoga community and look forward to contributions from other teachers in future.
Class participants , we engage in a continual process of feedback listening to attendees’ views on approach, and style. We have shaped the project to suit local need, offering classes from various teachers with diverse approaches. We have provided alternative wellbeing strategies, complementing the yoga, emotional healing, and Feldenkrais approach somatic movement. The wider yoga practitioner community. We contract with local yoga teachers who help service development, offering expertise in areas like neuro-divergence and yoga therapy and keep the teaching fresh and varied. Local businesses. We have again been given free tickets for Norwich Yoga festival, from the organiser, and distributed these amongst our class attendees Norfolk County Council Social Care teams. Living Well Officers and support workers publicised our classes making service users, carers and other family members aware of the benefits of our classes. The National Lottery. We benefited from funding from the National Lottery Community Fund to support our free project The Yoga Reset Project 2023 to relieve stress and support the community.
