You might want to try the Tai chi class on Northcote road - Thursday evenings. It stretches gently and having experience with both yoga and tai chi, it might be good for you. We are a friendly group too. The next class starts in 2 weeks and runs for a term. For more information you can PM me or look at the Mei Quan Tai chi website and classes in Clapham Junction. Maia x

Hi
Yes we have Pilates classes at 9.30am on Tuesdays & Thursdays which are suitable for beginners as well. We do have vinyasa yoga at 9.30 on Tuesday & Friday as well as 12.30 every day but that is probably too much for a first class and we'd suggest starting with the Pilates or Yin and see how it feels after class. You can use the free pass for any of the classes  - if you pop in 10mins before class we can sign you in and show you around etc.
All the best

Phillips,

Are there any other suitable classes for beginner. I am away next Wednesday and would rather get started before 2 weeks time.

Thanks

Hello
We have a lovely Yin Yoga class (mat based stretches) on Wednesdays at 10.45am for 75mins. You are very welcome to walk in and have a free class for your first session to see how you get on. We are on the corner of St John's Hill and East Hill (about 10-15mins walk from The Northcote pub). We have all the mats/equipment so you just need to wear comfortable clothing for the class. 
All the best

I was wondering if anyone knows of any good walk in stretch classes in the Clapham/Battersea area. Ideally not far from northcote rd. I am not sure I am up to full-on yoga, but would like to do some stretching in a class environment. Would be good if there are classes during school hours.
