we have a winner

I ran a competition at my Yoga for Men classes in Bristol earlier this year. Over the course of a month, every time one of my yogis attended a class, they were entered into a prize draw to win a free class and a copy of esteemed yoga teacher Rachel Scott’s Yoga to Stay Young book. It’s such a fantastic resource full of poses and sequences to keep flexible, strong and pain free into older age.

In true game show style (without the sequinned jacket), I loaded all of the attendees onto a Wheel of Fortune board. I spun the wheel as fast as I could, and when it stopped it had landed on Martin’s name and I was delighted to welcome him to my Keynsham class this week to pick up his prize.

I partner with men’s mental fitness charity Talk Club at my Yoga for Men classes. In true Talk & Yoga style, I asked Martin ‘How are you? Out of 10?’…

His score was, well.. that would be telling 😉

Martin dropped me a line in the week to say how he had been thumbing through the book. He was particularly impressed by how helpful and easy it looks to dip into without having to switch anything on! Martin has committed to try and make use the book as he often finds after each session his body feels better but then deteriorates as he doesn’t do any yoga type exercises between classes.

I think we can all relate to that Martin!
