Southampton priest bans yoga from church hall
A priest has banned yoga from a church hall because the class was "not compatible" with the Catholic faith.
Instructor Cori Withell from Hampshire said her yoga and pilates classes at St Edmund's Church building in Southampton were cancelled with 10 days to go.
Father John Chandler said that the hall had to be used for Catholic activities, and he banned it because it was advertised as "spiritual yoga".
Ms Withell said it "seemed terribly petty to cancel the classes".
