Oki Do Yoga  with Betty O'Toole

    Oki do yoga is a union of many disciplines including Indian Yoga, Chinese Taoism, Oriental Medicine and Japanese Zen.

It includes a great variety of exercises and natural movement with a flowing relationship to the traditional asanas. It mobilises, purifies, strengthens and balances.

Oki-do practices include asana, zen therapy exercises, meridian stretches, sound, shiatsu and meditation. Being mindful and wholehearted is the focus of all the classes.
