Led by Julie Potter
This class is suited to those who have been practising for at least 6. My intention for this class is to move our practise forward, explore different avenues and approaches to the traditional postures. We will be aiming to be going deeper into awareness and noticing.
The yoga I teach is an evolution of over 20 years of practice and study, perhaps moving away from external evaluation of the postures and moving towards an internal sense of the postures, moving away from the more used traditional approach of systemised yoga to a more experiential approach. Whilst looking at traditional Hatha Yoga postures and pranayamas, I will be encouraging fun and freedom within the traditional structure, whilst taking into our awareness fundamental anatomical and functional aspects required by our bodies for maximum wellbeing benefits.
Please bring a blanket, a Yoga / Pilates mat, and wear loose comfortable clothing.

Come and explore hand building with clay.
This five week course is for people with all abilities, whether you want to come and give Pottery a try or if you have some experience of working with clay. If you are new to clay you will be given the opportunity to try different techniques such as slab building, using press moulds, coiling and sculpting.
Helen will give you suggestions to suit your level of ability / experience and guide you through the process. The skills covered on the course will depend on what you decide to make after an initial discussion. More experienced learners can use the time to work on their own projects.
The intention of this 5 week course is to explore / build on different hand building techniques. At the end of week four, your work will then be bisque fired off-site, ready for glazing in week five. It will then be re-fired and ready to collect from Norden Farm at a later date.
The price includes: clay, use of tools, underglazes, decorating slips, glazes and 2x firing of your work.
Please bring with you:
- Sketchbook for ideas
- Pens / Pencils
- A cloth to wipe your hands on
- An apron
- Any clay tools you may have.
- A plastic bag to store your work
After the course
Helen will notify you and arrange a date regarding the collection of your work which usually takes between 4 - 6 weeks.
Please note that cut-off for booking is on Wed 23 Apr at 7.30pm.

Dir: Marc Evans 2024 | 124 mins
Based on a remarkable true story. Discover how the poor son of a miner became one of the greatest actors the world has ever known, with the help of an unlikely mentor.
Port Talbot, 1942. Richard Jenkins lives as a wayward schoolboy, caught between the pressures of his struggling family, a devastating war, and his own ambitions. However, a new opportunity arises when Richard’s natural talent for drama catches the attention of his teacher, Philip Burton (Toby Jones).
Taking Richard under his wing, the young man thrives under Philip’s strict tutelage and the guidance of kindly landlady, Ma Smith (Lesley Manville). However, as the acting world comes within Richard’s reach, the burden of his past risks holding him back forever.

Simon Spillett (tenor sax)
Alex Hutton (piano)
Alec Dankworth (bass)
Clark Tracey (drums)
Over his twenty five year career Simon Spillett has worn almost as many hats as it's possible to wear within jazz; multi-award-winning instrumentalist (BBC Jazz Awards, British Jazz Awards, Jazz Journal's Album of The Year), quartet and big band leader, recording artist, author, historian, record producer, archivist, magazine columnist and latterly blogger.
However, for all these varied skills he identifies most strongly as a powerfully swinging, straight ahead tenor saxophonist, one capable of taking the audiences who hear him on a roller coaster ride encompassing everything from energetic bebop to heartfelt balladry.
And it’s in this guise that he’s become a solid fixture on the UK jazz landscape, regularly playing sold out gigs at major festivals (EFG London Jazz Festival, Brecon, Swanage, Scarborough, Wigan etc.) and world famous club venues (Ronnie Scott’s).
A charismatic performer, gifted with a dry observational wit, he’s never lost sight of the fact that jazz is entertainment as much as self-expression and whether playing, writing or articulately holding forth on his favourite subject UK jazz history – he’s an infectiously passionate communicator.
