Free Park Yoga returns to Wolverhampton’s East Park
Free Park Yoga sessions are back at East Park in Wolverhampton, giving residents a weekly outdoor fitness option through the summer with no booking needed.
The sessions run every Sunday from 7 June until 13 September, from 9.30am to 10.30am. They are free to attend, open to all ages and abilities, and participants only need to bring a yoga mat if they have one, or a towel instead.
Sunday morning yoga at East Park
Park Yoga, the national charity behind the sessions, is running the Wolverhampton programme with support from the City of Wolverhampton Council and Active Black Country.
The format is designed as a low-barrier community session rather than a formal class with strict entry requirements. The council says people do not need to book in advance, which means residents can turn up on the morning and join in at East Park.

The sessions add another outdoor activity option for people who want a gentle way to be active without paying for a gym, committing to a course or needing specialist equipment. Readers interested in similar community-based walks can also compare other free outdoor activity sessions running in parks.
Beginner-friendly sessions for all abilities
The sessions are described as beginner friendly, with Park Yoga instructor Deb Sahota saying participants do not have to complete every movement.
That matters for anyone unsure about joining a yoga session in public for the first time. The source material makes clear that the hour is intended to work for different comfort levels, including people who may prefer to sit or lie in nature rather than follow every pose.
Councillor Obaida Ahmed, Cabinet Member for Health, Wellbeing and Community, said yoga can support mood, stress levels, muscle strength and flexibility. He said the hope is that the sessions encourage people to look after their wellbeing by being active outdoors.
The setting also changes the feel of the event. East Park gives the sessions a public, open-air setting rather than a studio environment, which may suit residents looking for a relaxed Sunday morning activity.
How to join the Wolverhampton sessions
There is no sign-up step listed in the council notice. People planning to attend should go to East Park for the 9.30am start on a Sunday morning and bring a mat if they have one.
A towel can be used if a mat is not available. The source does not list any additional equipment, transport guidance, accessibility arrangements, food stalls or weather rules, so attendees should rely on the confirmed basics: East Park, Sunday mornings, 9.30am to 10.30am, free entry and no advance booking.
Park Yoga instructor Deb Sahota said: “Whatever your ability, we’d love as many people as possible from your community group to join us.”
