We are already mid-way through January and I am just about getting back into work/order mode. The children back at school, the decorations packed away and all naughty food consumed. This time of year feels good; it’s about looking at what we want from life and setting those priorities in motion.  As for resolutions, this year our family decided we would make them for each other.   My son asked that I swing from the apple tree in our garden on a weekly basis – strange but doable.  My daughter asked that I show her more discipline and also take the time to play – again, not what I expected, but can do.  My husband asked that I simply go with the flow.

So going with the flow, I found myself almost floating above a stranger as he supported me with his feet and hands for balance.  At first acroyoga (which as the name suggests is a mix of acrobatics and yoga), seemed an odd choice but two hours in, I felt energised and devoted.  There are a few courses around London, but I chose to take mine at the The Special Yoga Centre - NW10.  The Special Yoga centre offers an extensive range of classes for adults and many for children with special needs.  I would urge anyone who can make it to this part of London to do so, as you will be hard pushed to find more accomplished teachers in a calmer setting then here and just walking through the doors eases any tension.  To read more about this charity and the wonderful work they do go to www.specialyogaorg.co.uk.
