Yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, the Alexander Technique and mindfulness form the backbone of the Hitchin Road centre’s programme of 83 weekly classes.

But there’s also lots of dance – ballet, salsa and Zuma – meditation, and things for children and teens.

These range from ballet classes for 2½-to-11-year-olds, modern jazz and tap for children aged five to 10, yoga for five-to-nine-year-olds, and mindfulness for children aged seven to 11.

New this term is a five-week energy psychology course run by Dr Phil Mollon, which teaches self-help methods for managing stress, depression and anxiety.

Also – run for the first time so people who work in the day can attend – there is a programme of Positive Movement for those aged 60 and over living with mobility issues.

It is also suitable for carers and those living with long-term conditions.

This unique programme combines an accessible form of yoga with the principles of the Alexander Technique.
