Welcome to Surrey Yoga Society! We are a community of yoga enthusiasts at the University of Surrey dedicated to creating a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore and deepen their yoga practice. Our society is open to all members of the Surrey community, regardless of their level of experience or background.
Our mission is to promote mindfulness, well-being, and holistic health through the practice of yoga. We believe that yoga is not just a physical exercise, but a way of life that can help us find balance and peace in our busy lives. By providing regular yoga classes, workshops, and events, we aim to create a space for individuals to connect with themselves and with others in a meaningful way.
Our society is run by a team of dedicated volunteers who are passionate about yoga and its many benefits. We offer a variety of yoga styles, including Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin, and more, to ensure that everyone can find a practice that resonates with them. Whether you are a seasoned yogi or brand new to the practice, we welcome you to join our community and discover the transformative power of yoga.
At Surrey Yoga Society, we believe that our work matters because it promotes physical, mental, and emotional well-being in our community. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to become overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, and other negative emotions. Yoga offers a way to slow down, connect with ourselves, and find a sense of balance and peace amidst the chaos.
Through our classes, workshops, and events, we provide individuals with the tools and support they need to cultivate a regular yoga practice and reap the many benefits it has to offer. These benefits include improved flexibility, strength, and balance, as well as reduced stress, anxiety, and depression. We are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming community. Yoga is for everyone, regardless of their background, experience, or physical abilities. By promoting diversity and inclusivity within our society, we hope to create a space where all individuals feel seen, heard, and valued.
In addition to promoting individual well-being, our work also has a ripple effect on the larger community. As individuals become more mindful and self-aware through their yoga practice, they are better able to connect with others in a meaningful way. This, in turn, can lead to stronger relationships, increased empathy, and a greater sense of social responsibility.
By promoting the practice of yoga and mindfulness in our community, we hope to contribute to a more compassionate, peaceful, and harmonious world. We believe that our work matters, and we invite you to join us on this journey towards greater health and happiness.
