Mindwalk Yoga Claimed

Mindwalk Yoga is a virtual well-being studio, and social enterprise focused on supporting Black women’s wellness with a much-needed rebalancing of representation in the wellness sector. The virtual well-being studio was founded by Zakiya Bishton, a qualified yoga teacher with over twelve years of teaching experience and expertise in yoga therapy for anxiety, trauma and insomnia. The virtual well-being studio is run by a multi-skilled team of Black female practitioners, Sound Therapist, Cherelle Sappleton, and Yoga Teachers Karen James, Natasha Lee, Paula Hines and Nicole Windle.

Mindwalk’s mission is that well-being is not exclusive or expensive but forms part of a much-needed routine to promote mental wellness. The virtual well-being studio always has a trial offer for new people to mindwalk yoga available on their website. Anyone wishing to be a member has options based on a sliding pay tier from as little as a low-income monthly membership of £10, standard £20/£30 and pay-it-forward tiers of £45/£60 to contribute to people in challenging circumstances. 20% of memberships are offered as bursary (free) memberships to anyone in challenging circumstances. The model aims to reach everyone, particularly those who wouldn’t usually have access to yoga. Classes are suitable for all ages, and all levels of ability, focusing on community support and easy-to-follow language.

Classes are hosted on Zoom, and cameras are optional. Mindwalk Yoga has built a caring and supportive community of people connecting from all over the UK and beyond.
