Very effective classes!
Lovely teacher, very helpful and happy to help and instruct with any issues you may have. Had a lovely time attending the beginners course.
I've just completed a 6 week beginners yoga course with Benita. Firstly I want to say Benita is very approachable and friendly. She has a passion to share her love of yoga which is evident in her teaching style which is extremely inclusive. She takes time to demonstrate variations on poses, dependent on physical ability.
Another bonus is the venue for the yoga class, The Boathouse studio is in a 'surprising' riverside location in Barking. There are no mirrors or stark lighting here, instead exposed brickwork and low / candle light, which adds to the experience providing a very chilled ambience. I look forward to continuing to practise yoga with Benita ;)
I had been meaning to give Yoga a try for many years and finally my house mate persuaded to try a 6 week beginners course and put me in contact with Benita.
I was still a little unsure after 3/4 weeks but in week 5 something clicked with me and everything Benita had been teaching us started to make sense. I have been attending Benita's classes every since. Without question every time I leave one of her classes I feel better - Physically and Mentally.
I have tried Yoga classes at my gym, the cost of which are included in my monthly subscription however I choose to return and practice with Benita. I find her classes, her instruction and the environment she creates to be of a far higher standard and more suited to what I am looking for from a yoga class.
Yoga has affected almost every aspect of my life... I am calmer, I eat better, I sleep better, I can concentrate better - In a nut shell... I feel better.
If you haven't tried yoga before then I wholeheartedly encourage it and if you have and looking for a new class then look no further than Benita.
As a not too flexible, but active, person I find the flow of these classes great! I may never get to some of the poses but Benita appreciates that each body is different and only encourages but does not cajole.
A welcoming and friendly class with a nice mix of students.
The style is dynamic and the poses are held for specific periods of time to make them a challenge but not a chore!
Benita explains well and helps where necessary but is also not controlling.
Good fun!
