My pricing explained

I don’t believe that the typical categories of concession are necessarily relevant to people’s financial circumstances (some retired people are significantly better off than a person in full-time but low-paid work, for instance). I have therefore created a system that allows you to pay what feels a suitable fee, with no questions asked.

The prices above are listed with three options (eg) £5 / £7 / £9. This refers to three tiers, as follows:

Tier 1 (lowest/subsidised)

A reduced rate to ensure my classes are available to as many people as possible.

Tier 2 (standard/sustainer)

A “neutral” fee that allows me to keep the class running.

Tier 3 (supporter)

A fee that allows me to offer subsidised places to others, and which supports me to offer these flexible rates as a self-employed person.

You do not ever need to explain your choice to me; these are offered freely, in trust and gratitude.

• You can change the amount you pay whenever you need to or feel able to. (Even occasional contributions at the supporter rate help this system work).

• If you ever feel you just can’t afford to come to yoga this week, please take a free place or make a smaller donation, and know that you are welcome.

• If I cannot earn a living from any individual class, I will need to stop running that class. There are other ways you can support the sustainability of a class - like helping me spread the word, inviting friends along etc. (I am so grateful - and quite proud - that all of my classes are built on word-of-mouth - this allows me to protect my own mental well-being by avoiding social media).

I know that this system is confusing for some and I am sorry for that - but I offer it as an extension of my commitment to social and economic justice.

Please just ask me if you have questions.
