Cruck House Timetable

The shifting of Humble Warrior Yoga away from its own bricks and mortar studio impacts not just where we practice Yoga, but also when we practice Yoga.

Cruck house offers a fantastic space to continue to enjoy our practice and I am genuinely very excited to see your reaction to the space.

We will be hosting classes in this space every Tuesday and Thursday beginning on Tuesday 4th October and continuing for as long as there is a demand for these classes.

Each Tuesday and Thursday evening we will hold 2 Yoga classes, A Hatha Flow class lasting 60 minutes and beginning at 1815 and a Rest and Restore class lasting between 60 and 90 minutes commencing at 1930.

The Hatha flow class will resemble the classes you have already got to know and love and will be a coreographed class working with the physical aspects of Yoga. Linking poses with Breathwork and meditation.

The New Rest and Restore classes will be a blend of Yin Yoga and Yoga nidra and will have an emphasis on settling and surrendering to our own needs, emotions and moods. These classes will last at least 60 minutes, and depending on the content may extend towards 90 minutes.

I will continue to teach in the way that has become synonymous with Humble Warrior Yoga, offerring classes designed to challenge and inspire, fusing spiritualtiy and philosophy with valuable life changing practices and teachings.

Our focus will flux and change as the world and seasons change and I hope that you can join me on this journey.

Initially, our classes will be available only on a Pay as You Go basis costing £8 per class. We will not offer memberships or class passes initially but anticipate this changing in the future.

We will continue to provide all of the equipment that you need for practice, including mats, blocks, straps etc and so the way you practice will not need to change.

These classes are available for you to book at our website and I encourage you all to start booking as soon as you can!

I look forward to greeting you all at Cruck house soon.

Humble Warrior Yoga 2.0

As you are all by now aware I have recently announced that Humble Warrior Yoga will be leaving its small studio space in Lichfield at the end of September.

You have all been very patient and allowed me the time to find our new home.

I am please to be able to tell you all that the new home of Humble Warrior Yoga will be Cruck House in Lichfield. As I have expressed to you all, I do understand how important it is to feel comfortable in a space and I am confident that Cruck House will be a new and very special place for us all to enjoy our practice in.

Cruck House is located on Stowe Street in Lichfield – A map of its location can be found here and is accessible on foot from Lichfield City centre or if you travel to class in your car it has its own large free car park available for us to use.

I will work hard to make the space feel as special and individual as I can for us to enjoy together, but it will be your presence and energy that will transform this space into the new home of Humble Warrior Yoga.

Classes in this new space begin on Tuesday 4th October.

You can book your mat spaces here.

I look forward to welcoming you all into our new home.

The Reincarnation of Humble Warrior Yoga

When I opened the studio 3 years ago Humble Warrior Yoga was a dream, it was an idea I had about sharing a truer, more authentic, version of yoga. I wanted to build a community of open minded and interested people willing to explore their own understanding and to share the rewards of this transformative practice.

I never imagined having to navigate a world wide pandemic and then the increased costs caused by amongst other things the war in Ukraine.

Since the studio doors opened, we have overcome so much, I still remember the opening day, the night before I had been up until 3am cleaning the space and getting ready for our first class the next morning. Some of you were there for that first class. Between then and now we have been forced to close, we have taken our classes online, we have comeback together in the studio but are now facing the impacts of unsustainable increases in operating costs.

Over the past few months, it has become increasingly difficult to continue to run the business in the way we began, the soaring costs of energy are uncapped for small businesses and with more on the way I have made the very difficult decision to close Humble Warrior Yoga as we all know it today, and to reincarnate Humble Warrior Yoga in a different form.

So I am writing today to tell you that from 29th September 2022 Humble Warrior Yoga will close its doors and leave our studio space.

This does not mean the end of Humble Warrior Yoga, because Humble Warrior Yoga transcends bricks and mortar. So long as Humble Warrior Yoga has its communty, it will have a purpose and a reason to keep going. So the search has already begun for a new home of Humble Warrior Yoga, this will mean we offer less classes, it will mean that the teaching staff changes and shrinks, and that the way we offer classes and charge for classes will also change – but what will not change is our vision, our philosophies, and our joyful appreciation of you, and of shared practice.

So whilst I know this will come as a shock to you and I know that you will have many questions, I am hoping you will continue to support our dream, our idea for truly transformative and accesible yoga.

If you are a current member, we will pro-rata your final membership payment amount to reflect the period between your final payment and the 29^th Sept. (e.g. if you pay on 14^th Sept you will only be charged for 15/30 days or 50% of your usual payment).

If you currently have a class pass I ask that you use the remaining classes before the end of September to prevent you losing out on those classes left unbooked.

I will continue to keep you updated about the decisions we make to move forward, about venues for classes, about a new schedule of classes and about the tough decisions we have to make regarding the teaching staff.

Humble Warrior Yoga is not me, or the other teachers who help me, Humble Warrior Yoga is not the bricks and mortar that we practice in, Humble Warrior is the chatter, the laughter, the community that we all participate in. Humble Warrior Yoga is all of you.

On a personal note, I want to take a moment to thank you, the community that you are a huge part of has helped me more than you will ever know, you have helped me to grow and mature in to the person I am today, disappointed, but optimistic about the future, someone who is excited at continuing the journey with you all, even though it will look different to how I dreamed.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via email, whatsapp, or talk to me in the studio.

Until the next update,

Yours,

Iain.

I want to say a huge thank you to our wonderful teachers Laura, Kim and Becky who have all adapted and learned how to deliver their own special formula of Yoga to you all through varied mediums through successive lockdowns.

We have broadcast and recorded well over 100 yoga classes since we first took our studio online, and whilst these will remain online for you to enjoy, we will not be adding to those classes in the future.

Humble Warrior Yoga is not an online yoga studio, and we are all so happy to be back doing what we love with you in the space.

We hope that you have all enjoyed practicing with us in our own homes, but we are also very happy to be leading classes in the studio again and we hope that you feel ready to come back to the studio and join us on the mat again.

Our online classes will continue this week but from Monday 02nd August we will not be recording or broadcasting live classes again.

See you soon Humble Warrior.
