Popular free outdoor Park Yoga classes return to Bowring Park, Telford.
Park Yoga are bringing their popular yoga sessions back to Telford for a second year, after a successful summer season year last year. These free one-hour yoga sessions are suitable for all and take place every Sunday morning at 9.30am. The classes begin on Sunday 3 May 2026 until mid-September at Bowring Park, Telford.
Park Yoga is a national charity delivering free outdoor community yoga in nature in 60+ towns and cities across England on Sunday mornings. That aims to bring communities together to meet new people and practice yoga in an inclusive and relaxing green environment.
You don't need any previous yoga experience or knowledge to join in as the classes are beginners-level and suitable to people of all ages and abilities.
Councillor Kelly Middleton, Cabinet Member for Public health & healthier communities said “Activities like Park Yoga make exercise feel accessible, inclusive and enjoyable and breaks down many of the barriers’ people face when starting exercise. Practising in a park creates a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, helping people move more, feel calmer, and connect with others in their community—often for the first time. Being active in green spaces also supports stress reduction and social connection, which are essential for overall wellbeing.”
Cathi Farrer-Mitchell, Director of Park Yoga said, “as a charity we want Park Yoga to be as accessible as possible, there’s no need to book and it’s free to attend.
Last year 31% of our participants had never done yoga before, so you won’t be alone if you’re new to yoga.
You don’t need any specific equipment, just a yoga mat if you have one, but if not a blanket or towel works perfectly.
Come along and give it a go, you won’t regret it!”
While classes will still go ahead in light rain, should the weather be particularly wet, participants will be informed of a class cancellation with at least an hour's notice via the Park Yoga Telford page on Facebook and the Park Yoga website.
Although it’s free to attend and always will be, participants are able to donate to the charity if they’d like to. Yoga Instructors have contactless donation machines available every Sunday and people can also donate online.
