Yoga After Work at The Cresset: Why Thursday Evenings in Bretton Are the Best Reset You Didn’t Know You Needed
If you’re based in Peterborough and find yourself exhausted by Thursday evening—ten tabs open in your head, body tense from a desk or car seat all day—you’re not alone.
That’s exactly why I started teaching my Thursday evening yoga class at 6 pm at The Cresset in Bretton.
It’s not just “another yoga class.” It’s your midweek exhale. A space to switch off, stretch out, and feel like yourself again—before the weekend rush kicks in.

🌿 Why Yoga After Work Just Hits Different
1. Shake Off the Day
Whether you’ve been sitting at a desk, standing on your feet, or wrangling kids all day, your body is carrying it.
This class helps release that tension with simple, effective movements. We start slowly—think deep breathing, gentle stretches, and neck and shoulder release.
2. Move with Purpose
We build into strength-based postures, dynamic flows, and mindful movement to shake off mental fog and help your body feel energised—without overdoing it.
3. A Moment for You
This isn’t a class about perfection. It’s about presence. We move, we breathe, we sometimes laugh—and we all leave a little lighter.
