Dru Yoga fixed my chronic back pain which I suffered with for 11 years. I was told I would be in a wheel chair & that I needed an operation. Now I have a healthy, supple, strong back & I can more than touch my toes. Love you Dru xx

2. You’ll feel blissfully relaxed and renewed

Dru Yoga is a unique combination of activation, energy block release sequences, asanas, and a long deep guided relaxation which together create a great feeling of well-being.
 

3. We’re an international, well-established school

Dru is one of the UK's leading yoga teacher training schools, and we're here to stay. Dru Yoga teacher training courses started in the 1980s, and now there are training schools all over the globe: in the UK,  Australia, New Zealand, The Netherlands and Canada – all in all there are over 14 locations worldwide where you can train to be a Dru teacher.

Dru Yoga for improving wellbeing and reducing stress

Yoga makes you feel great!

Randomised controlled trials show Dru Yoga makes a significant difference

4. It’s proven to reduce stress

A 2011 study published in the Scandinavian Journal of Work Environment and Health showed that Dru Yoga significantly improved wellbeing and resilience to stress in the workplace, compared to a control group. More research is being done on the benefits of Dru Yoga for back pain and other health challenges.

In the world's first randomised controlled trials into the benefits of yoga in the workplace, Dru Yoga has been shown to significantly decrease back pain, increase performance under stress, boost confidence and emotional wellbeing:

  • Self confidence under stress - up 650%
  • More clear-minded - up 500%
  • Less depressed - by 240%
  • More energised - up 370%
  • Higher life purpose - up 330%

It amazes me how Dru Yoga can transform my whole personality to become a calmer, kinder and energised person. I love the moves, the people, the philosophy and the environment of Dru. About to start the teacher training course - I can't wait.

5. You’ll gain higher energy levels

If you’ve always wanted more vitality and a zest for life, then Dru Yoga will release blocked energy and put a spring in your step! The Dru approach to traditional hatha yoga postures enables the flow of energy to revitalize the body from inside out – helping you feel great, very quickly!
 

6. Dru is for everyone!

No matter what age, shape or size you are, you’ll be able to do Dru Yoga. You won’t need to compare yourself with anyone, and we never talk about the ‘perfect posture’. Instead we always encourage many ways to do a yoga pose depending on your unique ability.  The emphasis is on you. Full stop.

After doing Dru Yoga, I feel relaxed, calm and more centered. It certainly is a wonderful tool for your mind, body and soul.

7. You’ll learn how to sort your emotions

Many people find that they can transform difficult emotions like anger, lack of confidence or grief through Dru’s yoga sequences, giving access to their inner strengths.
‘What does Dru do for me? It keeps me sane! It gives me space to be me. It takes me out of my thoughts and into the present moment. And the house is tidier, and I'm more patient, and I laugh more.’   - Lucy Cleary

In my Dru Yoga classes I’ve noticed my students experience a sense of emotional positivity and deep-rooted change.

8. It touches body, mind and spirit

You won’t just be touching your toes with Dru. It’s based on ancient yogic wisdom and includes meditation, mudras (hand gestures) and pranayama (directed breathing) which bring a deep sense of inner peace, no matter how busy you are! And if you fancy taking things further, we have a strong post-graduate programme with many personal development courses too.
