🧘 Why Yoga is Fabulous After 40 — And Why The Nook Studios Might Be Exactly What You Need
Let’s clear something up straight away: you do not need to touch your toes to start yoga. In fact, that’s probably one of the biggest myths out there. Yoga is for every body — especially if you’re over 40 and want to feel stronger, more flexible, and calmer without running marathons or joining a gym.
Wait — There’s a Yoga Studio in Tewkesbury?
Yes! The Nook Studios might just be Tewkesbury’s best-kept secret. Tucked right on your doorstep, we’re not a big-box gym or a trendy “wellness” chain. We’re a local, friendly, and down-to-earth space where real people move, breathe, and feel better — at their own pace.
And here’s the best part?
No memberships. No pressure. No pretending you love headstands.
Been there, done that? So have we. That’s why at The Nook, we focus on connection, community, and making yoga feel good — not like another thing to tick off your to-do list.
Why Yoga Works After 40
Whether you’re dealing with tight hips, stiff shoulders, poor sleep, or just want to feel better in your body, yoga offers real benefits, especially as we age.
Here’s what yoga can do for you:
🌿 Improve balance and stability (goodbye, wobbly knees!)
💪 Build gentle strength — especially in core and back
🧘♀️ Reduce stress, anxiety, and overwhelm
😴 Help you sleep more deeply
🤸 Increase flexibility (yes, even if you haven’t stretched in years)
And nope — you don’t need to be “fit” to start. You just need to show up as you are.
Why a Studio Makes All the Difference!
You could do yoga on YouTube. You could try a class at a gym. But there’s something special about a small studio.
At The Nook Studios, you’re not just another face in the crowd. Our teachers get to know you — your name, your niggles, your goals — and help you find a practice that fits you. Not the other way around.
Whether you’re joining a slow flow on a Monday or trying your first ever yoga class, we keep things relaxed, supportive, and full of encouragement.
Here’s What You Won’t Find at The Nook:
🚫 Loud music or flashing lights
🚫 Instructors showing off or pressuring you
🚫 Judgment about what you can or can’t do
Just a peaceful, welcoming space and people who actually care.
Ready to Give It a Try?
If you’re curious but nervous, that’s totally normal. Come along to a any class, bring a mat (or borrow one), and wear something comfy. We’ll do the rest. Even take advantage of our new student class pass of 4 classes for £15.
