Over 50s Yoga Therapy

with light weights

1-2-1 and Class sessions available

In-person around the Bury area or Live online over zoom

Are you looking for a regular practice to support your overall health and wellbeing?

Have you got a specific issue that you want to tackle?

My name is Olivia Rigby. I am a fully qualified and experienced yoga therapist teaching and practicing yoga therapy around the Bury area since 2006.

In that time I have gained a great deal of experience and expertise in working with the over 50s age range and their wide range of health conditions and issues.

I have devised practices that are safe, beneficial and help to maximise good health and wellbeing for everyone who attends my classes or 1-2-1 sessions.

Working with light weights, whilst not traditionally linked to yoga, helps improve posture, develops strength and balance, builds confidence and so much more besides.

I gained my Yoga Therapy Diploma through the Yoga Biomedical Trust and Yogacampus in 2010. I am also a member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists, a CNHC (Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council) member, and Yoga Therapy Association founder member.

About Olivia

A perpetual student, I am always learning new things about the body, how it works and how yoga therapy practices can be used to improve it.

‘Listen to your body’ has been a constant mantra for me from the very first yoga class I attended.  I would still say it is the single most important instruction I use with all my students and continue to use in my own personal practices.
