Join us for a week of free health and wellbeing sessions at Here East to kick-start 2019.
Beat Blue Monday by starting off your day with a hot pod yoga session followed by a DIY winter wellness survival kit workshop at lunchtime. Throughout the week you’ll also get the chance to make your own terrarium, have a free massage and receive expert advice on how to stick to your fitness goals for the new year.
We’ll be hosting daily hot pod yoga sessions from Monday to Friday at 7:30am and 6pm in Retail Unit 13 (far left of the Press Centre). Come along and experience yoga in its most potent form.
