Beginners Yoga Course

We Are Wellness is running a Beginners Yoga Course in Headingley this autumn, taught by Molly Gillet. It's a four-week course that runs on Monday nights from 8pm to 9pm, with sessions on 18 September, 16 October, and 13 November 2026. The whole thing is held in Studio 1 at the studio's Headingley home, 2 North Hill Road, Leeds LS6 2EN.

It's built for people just starting out on their yoga journey, so you don't need any prior experience to join in. Over the four weeks, Gillet works through the fundamentals: warming-up postures, linking movement to breath, the sun salutation sequence, and the common standing and seated postures that form the core of a practice. There's also a focus on simple breathing and meditation techniques. The idea is to give you a foundation you can carry on with afterwards, whether that's in the studio's regular timetabled classes, in one-to-one sessions, or just on your own at home.

We Are Wellness itself is a Headingley studio that looks after mind, body and spirit through a range of yoga, therapies and holistic practices, all set inside a Grade 2 listed 18th-century mansion. Beyond yoga, they run Pilates, mindful meditation and fitness sessions, and they have a Training Academy for teachers and therapists. On the therapy side, you'll find massage, Reiki, Bowen Therapy and Ayurvedic Yoga Massage.

The course costs £45, or £40 if you book early — that early bird rate applies up to two weeks before the course starts. Each session runs from 8pm to 9pm on Mondays, so it's a late-evening slot that fits around a working day.
