Welcome...

Manchester Yoga Social Enterprise Society Limited is a  social enterprise company established by a group of professionals who are also qualified yoga teachers. We are taking yoga to people who we know will benefit but who might not go to a yoga class. These include young people, older people. disabled people, people at work and people who have too much stress in their lives. We have also  identified a need for business advice for others wishing to train, retrain and establish businesses and careers as teachers of yoga, meditation, stress reduction and other therapeutic techniques.

There is a growing awareness of the benefits of yoga movement, breath work and meditation practices in a whole range of contexts - occupational health, working with challenging behaviour in children and adults, facilitating therapeutic interventions for disabled people. See:
