Meet your instructor: Caroline
Caroline fell in love with yoga after participating in classes and being amazed by how energised and clear-minded she felt after each session and how it helped her lower back ache and stress levels.
Since studying for her first teaching qualification 15 years ago, she has trained in many different styles of yoga and taught thousands of classes but her favourite has always been freestyle which allows her creative side to run wild without being tied down to any strict rules. She loves keeping up to date with the latest scientific research on biomechanics, mobility and movement and incorporating this into her classes and she combines this with sharing both her own and others’ thoughts and writings around the intricacies of the practice of yoga and why it means so much to so many people.
Caroline jumped at the chance to get on board with Park Yoga because she is desperate to share the benefits of yoga with as many people as possible. Her goal is to make sure everyone finishes their sessions feeling more balanced both in body and in mind and generally feeling wonderful!

Park Yoga Poole
Park Yoga offers FREE outdoor yoga sessions, every Sunday morning from May - September.
🌟Every Sunday morning, I’m reminded why practising yoga outdoors feels so special.
🌳 There is something about moving, breathing and relaxing on the grass by the trees under the blue sky that simply can’t be recreated indoors.
🌤️ The birdsong, fresh air and open sky become part of the practice. That’s one of the reasons I love being part of Park Yoga, I love that the charity helps to make free outdoor yoga accessible to everyone so as many people as possible can feel all the benefits of being outside.
💚 If you’ve never joined us before, why not give it a try this Sunday morning…
What a beautiful morning at Park Yoga Poole!
Thank you for being part of it, for supporting this wonderful charity, and for making Park Yoga Poole such a positive place to spend a Sunday morning.
We can’t wait to see you all again next week. Until then, have a wonderful week and remember to take a few mindful moments for yourself. 🌿💚

Thank you so much 💚
What a lovely way to end our Park Yoga session on Sunday, it was really wonderful to be able to chat to some of you and sample a yogi tea together 💚🍵
After our practice on Sunday, many of us stayed to enjoy a little community tea party get together, with delicious samples of Yogi Tea to sip while we chatted, laughed and connected. Moments like these are so lovely - Park Yoga is about so much more than yoga, it’s about bringing people together, making new friends, and creating a welcoming community for everyone.
A huge thank you to everyone who stayed to share the morning with us. We hope you enjoyed trying the tea as much as we enjoyed spending time with you!
If you’ve been thinking about joining us, why not come along? It’s completely free, open to all abilities, and there’s always a warm welcome waiting for you. 🌳🧘♀️💚
