# Yoga with Robin Lipsey
Yoga with Robin Lipsey offers gentle, accessible yoga classes in a converted Edwardian barn set within an orchard in Wolvercote, North Oxford, with stunning views across Port Meadow towards Oxford's spires. Robin Lipsey is one of Oxford's most experienced yoga teachers, with over 40 years as a teaching member of the British Wheel of Yoga.
The business primarily serves people seeking low-impact, non-competitive yoga in a welcoming environment. Whilst classes accommodate various fitness levels, they particularly resonate with older practitioners—most attendees are over 50, with many in their 60s, 70s and 80s—though younger students also appreciate the gentle approach.
What distinguishes this practice is the flexibility and accessibility of delivery. Robin offers six weekly classes from Monday to Friday, available both as live in-person sessions (limited to 10 members) and via live-streamed Zoom classes (capped at six for better visibility). This hybrid model allows students to choose their preferred learning environment week-to-week. During summer months (May to September), outdoor garden sessions operate on a pay-as-you-go basis, weather permitting.
Beyond regular classes, the business extends its reach through "Yoga for Busy People," a practice CD programme designed around realistic time frames for working individuals. Robin's teaching philosophy emphasises health, fitness, wellbeing and peace of mind, fostering an entirely accessible, comfortable experience from the first class onwards. At 73, Robin continues to evolve her teaching alongside her long-established student community.
