The benefits of yoga
Improve your posture and de-stress with yoga at David Lloyd Chigwell. Our yoga classes will help to create balance in the body, developing both strength and flexibility. Research has also linked yoga to enhanced mood.
Yoga for over-50s
Yoga becomes even more beneficial as you move through life. A regular yoga practice can support everyday activities - expect improved posture, balance and flexibility after you start attending classes. Yoga provides a workout that's kind to your joints while still giving you real fitness results.
Pilates classes in Chigwell
We also offer mat Pilates at David Lloyd Chigwell. There are similarities between yoga and Pilates, but one of the key differences is that unlike most styles of yoga, in Pilates you sometimes use resistance equipment as well as bodyweight.
Pilates focuses on strengthening the core, although it does include some flexibility work.
