what they say

“The Newbies course was a revelation to me. I sleep better, relax better, and much stronger physically and in much less pain. I am also finding it easier to make time for myself and my own dreams. Viveka Gardens is a magical serene setting to find peace of mind”. A, East Leigh
This course has been a fantastic introduction to yoga for me. It also felt very nurturing and fun. Everything is provided including a yummy soup to finish !! I can’t recommend this highly enough. J, Crediton
“Viveka Gardens is a very tranquil place where you feel a part of the nature around you. Fiona is a calm, inspiring teacher who encourages you to take part and accomodates those with medical conditions or injuries. If you attend this venue you will not want to go back to classes in halls again as you will be spoilt!” A, Whiddon Down
