GOOD NEWS!! As restrictions have eased again, we are now almost back to normal!! We are still asking for masks to be worn in treatments and off the mats, but prior covid screening has been removed. We just ask that you reschedule if feeling in any way unwell or have any symptoms of any coughs/colds/flu/covid. We want to stay open to keep helping you and if we end up feeling unwell we have to close! Apart from that - we are back to using all equipment, props and space! Hope to see you soon!

Absolutely amazing - I can’t even do justice to the experience with just words.
Choreographing Yoga to live and totally consuming, specially composed pieces by composer Graeme Stewart and played by the Ulster Orchestra right behind me - spine tingling!! Why did this project happen? To support everyone that has an interest in music, Yoga and well-being for World Well-Being Week 2021 - 3 videos for practice on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It took many weeks of work, preparation, practice and editing to get the final versions to what we have released. We hope you love them as much as we do!

TDR Academy is closing for a holiday!
