We’ve all raised an eyebrow at the prices of dropin classes at some of London’s high-end studios. There are now places where you won’t get much change out of a twenty-pound note for a single one-hour (or, let’s be honest, 50 minutes) class. While high prices might be good for business, it comes at a cost: students on a budget miss out. One enterprising yoga teacher is doing something about it, launching central London classes targeting that exact same demographic.
“Being on a low salary, I can’t afford to pay £15 a class to practice regularly. This average class price makes yoga in London very exclusive,” says Shelley de Jong (pictured below).
