Yoga Weekend Workshop Sunday 12th October 2014 2 – 4.30pm at Preston Village Hall
How Can Yoga Help Weightloss?
Yoga can be used as a physical exercise – just like any other… but in this workshop we’ll also look at the other aspects of yoga that can truly alter patterns of behaviour linked to comfort eating and image perceptions. Not all serious and sweaty – we’ll take a lighthearted view at accepting ourselves as we are and develop strategies to embrace change in a fun and loving way.
Do Yoga! Weekend Workshops are great for new and existing students. Those already attending classes can learn a fresh application for yoga or inspire their home practice. They are ‘stand alone’ classes, taught from the basics up, and are ideal for people new to yoga – so why not come along and give it a try?
They are fantastic value at £15 per 2 1/2 hour session.
Please contact Deb King here to book

The North Luffenham Garden Club held its 16th Annual Autumn Show this Sunday 14th September in the village Community Centre and school hall.
We were thrilled with the turn out, with 55 people entering one or more classes and a total of 389 entries overall, an all-time record! On Sunday morning when the entries were arriving, I was concerned we weren’t going to fit everything in! But that’s a brilliant problem to have!
Hall full of entries
The show has a really friendly, family feel to it. It really was a celebration of what everybody had achieved in their gardens, and a showcase of hidden talents with some stunning craft and photography entries.
We were also delighted that there were more children’s entries this year which included some from the School gardening club and the North Luffenham Beavers.
Entry into most humorous vegetable
A campaign earlier in the year to encourage more flower arranging entries, with a series of free classes held in the village run by one of the members, Sally Lambert and a new prize of an RHS Grenfell Medal certainly paid off too, with 20 in total.
The hall was a wonderful sight – thank you to everyone who made the effort to put in entries, and to all the hardworking volunteers who helped the day run so smoothly.

The meeting on September 16th was well attended and we all enjoyed a very informative talk, given by Robin Stewart, lecturer, caterer and photographer. Robin showed slides of how methods of depicting Food has evolved over the ages, in Paintings and Photography.
His photos,with his own preparations to be used in promotions and magazines, were accompanied by descriptions of the use of backgrounds, lighting, lenses etc. There was very little use of post production enhancement, preferring to use histograms and computer screens to adjust settings.
Robin ended by giving us a demo of how he would set up and photograph a composition, using some delicious cupcakes made by a member of the Club.
I expect that everyone has taken away some ideas for a much more informed way of looking at and setting up compositions. So – Food will be the theme for the next meeting’s Photo Display on November 18th.
Proposal: Reduce height of 2 No. Birch trees by 4 No. metres and reduced lateral branches to shape.
