Hotpod Yoga Studio next to Leyton Midland Station is inviting all new customers to enjoy a yoga class for just £5, with all proceeds being donated to charity, writes Holly Kintuka

Hotpod Yoga studios across the capital, including their Leyton branch, will be hosting £5 yoga classes in partnership with a charity providing exercise opportunities to survivors of domestic abuse, and sexual exploitation.

‘theMovement’, which aims to restore every woman’s right to exercise by providing such opportunities to those with disadvantages, has teamed up with nine Hotpod Yoga studios in London to provide the classes.

The Leyton branch located on Midland Road, which opened in April by sisters and ex-primary school teachers Mia and Courtney Bull will be hosting their open day on 21st September.

The open day invites all new customers to enjoy a yoga class for just £5, with all proceeds being donated to charity.

Fiona Roberts, founder and CEO of theMovement says: “A huge thank you to Hotpod Yoga for fundraising for theMovement through their upcoming Open Days. 

“We are so grateful for their donations and the difference it will make to breaking down barriers to exercise for survivors of domestic violence, sexual exploitation, homelessness and correlated disadvantages.”
