Mysore & Breakfast Club

Recommended Posts

We'd love to bring our Mysore and Astanga community together for this special event of practice, food, drink and chat.


Mysore - 08:00 - 10:00

Chat & Chai - Q&A with Tom - 10:00 - 10:30

Thosai Brunch - 10:30 - 12:00


The class is suitable for all ages, shapes, sizes and levels of practice and beginners are very welcome. We will introduce you to the fundamentals of the method, then work on a short, simple but dynamic sequence that you will know off by heart when you leave.


After this, you can grab a cup of house chai or mango lassi in the cosy Members Lounge and join a Q&A style talk with Tom. Explore the benefits, history and theory of astanga yoga and get to know more about how this 'self-practice' can positively impact your life.


Last but not least, enjoy a special Sri Lankan breakfast of Thosai, (aka Dosa in India) with Oru’s signature curries and sides of sambal and chutneys.


A little more about Tom -


Tom Norrington Davies is a cook, writer, student and teacher of Astanga Yoga. In a career spanning twenty five years he was head chef at London’s original gastro - pub, the Eagle, for a decade. From there he went on to open 32 Great Queen Street, which won best British restaurant at the 2008 Evening Standard awards. In the same year Tom discovered the life enhancing practice of Astanga Yoga, through which he found a way to manage the stresses of running a busy kitchen. Today he offers discounted yoga classes to anyone in hospitality via the pilot light campaign, a charity started by two chefs seeking to ignite a conversation about mental health in the hospitality industry. Tom brings his experience of practicing while working long, irregular hours to his teaching style. He can ensure that your yoga practice is safe, nurturing and sustainable, whatever life is throwing at you.

    • Thanks TWB, that is all really useful. However, if  memory serves, The Fox Project actually directed me to The Fox Angels when I phoned them, and had no facilities in this area for sending anybody out themselves. They seem to be based in Tunbridge Wells. The Greenwich Wildlife Network also just suggests other organisations who may help in certain situations. To the best of my knowledge, however, for situations involving foxes, including injured or ill  foxes, Fox Angels are the only people who have someone available very locally who can come out virtually immediately (I waited maybe half an hour after I phoned them). The person who came had all the necessary equipment to move the fox, was very gentle and caring, and took the fox to a local vet (it sadly died). It's possible that if you phoned a local vet they would help, if you could get the fox there. The RSPCA has guidelines on what to do if you find an  animal in need,  however although they have recently had a campaign on this (and sent me a badge and a copy of the guidelines on a pocket sized card) I can't find them online. I attach a photo. Don't know if the QR code would work from a photo.    
    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
