Sheffield Yoga for ME/CFS

Are regular classes too demanding for your Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or Long Covid?

Looking for yoga that fits within your energy levels?

We offer gentle, adapted yoga sessions for people living with ME/CFS, Long Covid and related conditions.

What is Sheffield Yoga for ME/CFS?

We’re a Sheffield-based registered charity dedicated to making yoga accessible to people living with ME/CFS and related conditions.

Gentle yoga, your way

You don’t need to be flexible or have any yoga experience, or be very active. Our sessions are very gentle and specially adapted for people with ME/CFS.

Do what feels right for you. Sit, lie down, rest or simply listen and relax.

Welcome to our group, where our restful yoga, gentle movement, and deep relaxation sessions are designed especially for people living with ME, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Long Covid, and similar conditions. No pressure, no pushing, but supportive and understanding.

Living with ME/CFS or Long Covid makes traditional classes unmanageable. However, our sessions are not the traditional yoga seen on social media, but restful, created with pacing and softness in mind. Our sessions aim to teach you to listen to your body, learn how to breathe better, and to relax.

Voices from our lovely ME, CFS and Long Covid Community Members

“There's such a great understanding of ME at this class, the adapted yoga is fantastic with great yoga teachers. I love attending the classes when I'm able.”

“These classes have helped symptoms and given me a bit of confidence back. Helped my mood and given me a purpose again.”

“...I hardly ever go out at the moment and never to any other group events as I am unable to, so this yoga opportunity on Zoom is invaluable to assist in improving my health.”
