Monday Yoga Class in Chinnor Village Hall.

Write a comment

Come and join our Monday Yoga class in the lovely bright room with good ventilation of the Village Hall. There's plenty of parking also.

CVH_Back_Room 

Classes are held between 10.30-12 noon and 1.15 -2.45 pm. Cost is £8 per class for a group of sessions or £10 per class to drop in. This is not a “bendy, stretchy” class. The approach aims to keep up general movement using yoga principles of breathing and non-harm - stop, go slower, do less when necessary. That requires quite a lot of self awareness - maybe the hardest thing.

Liz is British Wheel of Yoga trained teacher with 40 years experience in teaching generally. She is aware of how tricky it can be to start new classes and her aim is to cater for the individual - that’s why the classes are small. https://insideyoga.blog/

Grants totalling over half a million pounds are being awarded to help fund nearly 40 schemes to reduce flooding in Oxfordshire.

Oxfordshire County Council received more than 80 applications for its priority action grants earlier this year from groups and organisations working to make their communities more resilient to flooding.

Following an assessment process, 39 schemes are being supported with grants of up to £25,000, subject to confirmation.

Councillor Judy Roberts Oxfordshire County Council’s Cabinet Member for Place, Environment and Climate Action, said: “The quality of submissions was extremely high, and we would have supported almost all the projects if we had enough money to do so.

“It is fantastic that these groups are so committed to improving the situation where they live. When it comes to knowing what is needed to tackle flooding in a particular area, local communities are often the experts.

“This grant scheme is now in its second year and is a part of our drive to help residents take effective action to tackle flooding and extreme weather, which is being exacerbated by climate change.”

Projects to be funded include ditch construction in Chinnor.
