AUM Yoga
Community yoga classes in Clacton
AUM Yoga has been dedicated to enhancing the physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing of its participants. Founded and led by experienced instructor Paramjeet, the initiative has grown to become a vital part of the local community.
The initiative stemmed from Paramjeet's passion for yoga and her commitment to promoting holistic health. Recognising the diverse needs of the Clacton community, she designed classes that cater to people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds. The aim was to create an inclusive environment where everyone could benefit from the therapeutic effects of yoga.
The classes include breathwork, poses, meditation, and mindfulness, designed to offer physical and mental benefits, as well as a reconnection between the body and mind, enhancing strength, resilience, and flexibility.
Supported by Active Essex and funded through the London Marathon Foundation following the success of RideLondon-Essex, AUM Yoga serves as a shining example of how targeted, inclusive wellness programmes can profoundly impact local communities.
Funding has made these classes free for residents, alleviating the financial burden during the current cost of living crisis. Without the added stress of paying, participants can fully immerse themselves in the calming and centring environment.
Classes like these offer more than just a suitable activity; they can help reduce social isolation and build confidence. Providing people with a reason to leave the house and start their day positively impacts their mental health.
