Yoga in the Castle
On a warm spring day in 2019, the Fellowship hosted its first yoga class in the beautiful and historic St Andrews Castle. For only £3, students relaxed, moved, and focused on wellness during the stressful exam season. Participants were also given the opportunity to tour the castle after the session ended. This event was held in partnership with Historic Environment Scotland which manages the Castle, as well as the View Yoga Studio and the University of St Andrews Yoga Society, YogiSoc.
The hour-long flow class was led by certified instructor Jamie Dunleavy, who worked at the View Studio, and YogiSoc helped provide extra mats, allowing both beginners and more advanced yogis to engage in the event. All tickets were sold out in two days, and the event itself was a huge success. While Yoga in the Castle was not possible in the spring of 2020 due to COVID-19, The Fellowship looks forward to welcoming back this adored event in the spring of 2021.
