I started seriously coming to the centre a year and a half ago . The reason I came to the centre was to find a sense of inner peace, community and grounding from the busy everyday life. I have just passed my 500 days of sobriety from alcohol and yoga has helped to deepen my explorations of the spiritual path. In addition to this I have lost over two stone in the last year and couldn't have done it without finding yoga 🧘♀️ I attend weekly yoga classes two to three times a week . My favourite classes being James vinyasa class on a Wednesday and Helen's yin yoga on a Thursday . I have just started going to Pilates on a Monday night with James and it's awesome! Totally all about the strength building these days . I also am currently doing the yoga teacher training course with James every Friday and it has been a great way to deepen my physical and spiritual practice . It is the start of my journey to becoming a yoga teacher . I love the events on at the centre , such as the cacao ceremonies , the sound baths and Ayurvedic workshops. The centre has helped me massively to build self confidence , self esteem and to carry a sense of calm within and so many...
Read moreI’ve had a wonderful morning at The Yorkshire Centre for Wellbeing & Harrogate Retreats. It is such a welcoming space with lovely people who just show up being their authentic selves, the ayuvedic balancing thread weaves through the different classes and there’s always a centering and grounding whilst feeling uplifted, quietened and at peace. There’s clearly years of knowledge and experience in the sharings of Anne- Marie and James, I had a wonderful yoga session with Kelly-Anne and I’ve had a women’s circle with her too… all so uniquely themselves, all with a clear strong ability to share their wisdom.

Delicious healing food and laughter all together an experience to nourish and restore wellbeing. Gratitude for this experience and...
Read moreReally nice centre specialising mainly in Yoga, pilates and meditation. They also offer some massage therapy, occasional sound baths, cacao ceremonies and some other holistic and esoteric practices too. A short walk from the centre of Harrogate. Loads of free parking nearby. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly according to their specialisms. Their main Yoga teacher is a Harrogate local, but studied in India for a time and can support people who have a more spiritual interest in Yoga. However, they also cater for people who just want a good old stretch and workout, as well as those who prefer slower more relaxing types of Yoga. Classes tend to start bang on time, so I've found it really helps to get there 5 mins before the start of the class. The centre also has a welcoming community vibe; they like to celebrate the equinoxes and solstices with whomsoever wants to attend. Nice clean place, good...
