Meet your instructor: Rachel
Rachel began practicing yoga around seven years ago and truly believes that not only can it benefit everyone, but it is for everyone and everybody. Whether you come for your mind your body or your spirit, you’ll find something to take away. Jigor Gor said that, “Yoga is not about touching your toes, but what you learn on the way down,” and Rachel couldn’t agree more.
When she isn’t practicing yoga Rachel enjoys running (yoga is great for runners), hiking with her dog Georgie, scuba-diving (although a fair weather diver these days!) and losing herself in a good book.

Park Yoga Abingdon
Park Yoga offers FREE outdoor yoga sessions, every Sunday morning from May - September.
When you’re new to yoga, you might wobble and shake, and your muscles might be working more than you expected. That’s completely normal. Shaking is normal.
The movements and postures that we move through in our asana practice are not usual, everyday movements. Your body will be learning something new and your muscles will be working to stabilise you in an unfamiliar shape.
It may feel like your wrists will always feel your Downward Dog, or your front leg will always struggle with Warrior II, but our bodies do adapt and things soon start to feel a little more ‘normal’.
At Park Yoga, our vibe is chill 😎 There’s no pressure to do all (or even any) of the postures. You can choose variations that work for your body, opt-out or rest whenever you need.
Every week we have people join us for their first yoga experience. People that choose to opt-out of poses that don’t work for them (for whatever reason). People that choose to take variations. People that come not for the movement, but for the community and nature - choosing stillness instead.
If you’re new to yoga, perhaps considering exploring the mat for the first time, join us at ⏰ 9.30am on 🗓️ Sunday morning in 📍 Marina Park.

Thank you for rolling out your mats this morning Abingdon 🙏
We now only have FIVE more weeks left of the 2026 season 😔 Where has the time gone? This season seems to have flown by!
Please remember to bring water with you and stay hydrated. It started a bit cooler this morning, but was like an oven on pre-heat and warmed up quickly.
