The Prison Phoenix Trust

Charity Registration No. 327907

The Prison Phoenix Trust brings hope and healing to prisoners with the disciplines of yoga and meditation, based on silence and the breath. The Trust trains and supports qualified yoga teachers for work in prisons - in substance misuse, anger management and education programmes. Prisoners are invited to practise daily in their cells and supported by 150 weekly classes in 87 prisons in the UK and Ireland. The PPT encourages them with correspondence, free resource books, CDs, and quarterly newsletters, and also works with prison staff and officers in 20 weekly classes.

My story

In brief - 300 people, 12 yoga teachers, 108 rounds of sun salutations. It's a bit like a yoga-marathon. And I have decided to take part!

Training is going well. The key apparently is to build up focus, awareness and stamina and apparently I will be absolutely fine on the day... So let's see:

Focus - I still get the counting wrong...

Awareness - I am definitely aware now that this is all about the breathing. It's not quite as bad any more, but I still sometimes sound a bit like a walrus after training.

Stamina - I discovered my triceps! That's got to be a good sign.

Aside from getting fit, this is obviously all about raising money for Charity. Mine is the Prison Phoenix Trust, which my yoga teacher is involved with, so I have decided to help her to help them. You can find some info on the left...

So PLEASE, all of you lovely people, give some money!

Thank you!

Kat xx
