Yoga and breath-work sessions led by Ali Parker in the Cathedral Nave beneath Luke Jerram's Gaia art installation.
Ali Parker is leading yoga classes in the Nave of St Albans Cathedral on two Monday evenings this winter: 18 January and 1 February 2027, with a 6pm session and a 7.30pm session on each date. Both run beneath Gaia, Luke Jerram's art installation that fills the space. The Cathedral Nave is the heart of the abbey church, which runs concerts, talks, exhibitions, tours and major cultural events alongside its religious life.
Ali Parker is a member of the Abbey congregation who has practised yoga for over 20 years. She's a 200hr Hatha Yoga trained teacher, Yoga Alliance accredited, and qualified as a UK Level 3 Sports coach. This isn't her first time leading a class in the Cathedral; she also ran sessions under the Peace Doves installation earlier this year.

All the yoga and breath-work practices she suggests are optional, so you can do as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. You'll need to bring your own mat. If you're driving in, Christopher Place Car Park is about a two-minute walk away, and Clarence Park is around 16 minutes. The Cathedral is at Sumpter Yard, St Albans, AL1 1BY. The sessions run 6pm and 7.30pm on Monday 18 January and Monday 1 February.
