Question 1

Why are these sessions only for men?

Accepted Answer

As a regular attendee to yoga classes I was struck by how few men also attended (it was normally only me!) I wanted to create a space that would feel inviting for men to practice in a way that felt accessible and enjoyable. I hope to foster a community focused on self-development and support.

Question 2

I have never practiced yoga before. Can I come?

Accepted Answer

Of course! The sessions a designed to be adaptable to everyone's level of experience in Yoga. It is a very relaxed environment when lots of space to rest if needed. Liam is expertly trained to assist in adjustments to make any of the yoga poses more accessible for you.

Question 3

I have a regular practice are these session going to be useful for me?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The sequence of postures will be repeated each week so you can get into your own personal flow with the class and then incorporate it into your practice. If you consider yourself more expert in Yoga I recommend we have a conversation about my 1-1 sessions where we can go at your desired pace.

Question 4

I am not very flexible should I even do Yoga?

Accepted Answer

We do Yoga to become more flexible (said with a cheeky grin!) With Liam's classes we start from where we are and move from there. And the sessions' intention is put on to the practice not on how good we are doing. A little bit, done mindfully and slowly will go a LONG way.

Question 5

I have a sore back. Will Yoga help?

Accepted Answer

It will indeed. Any sort of muscular pain caused by misalignment, workout, physical labour or excessive sitting will be eased and soothed by these sessions with Liam. They are designed to work every muscle in the body and develop them to prevent pain in the future.

Question 6

I have some injuries should I come to Yoga?

Accepted Answer

You should always ask you to check with your GP to see if Yoga is suitable for you. Liam is qualified to support the recovery of the body and will adjust your practice where needed. However, if there is any serious concerns Liam may ask you to take a break from the session to prevent further injury.

Question 7

Why are the sessions on different days and times of the week?

Accepted Answer

Liam is working in collaboration with Shanti Bee to make Zen Men a reality. We decided that for the month of May we would trial a selection of dates and times to see how attendance may differ. Going forward Liam will select a suitable recurring day and time to create stability and routine.
