Somewhere between the school run, the shopping list, the extra events and the everyday demands of just… life, self-care has a habit of quietly disappearing. You tell yourself you’ll get to it. Eventually. Probably in January.
But your body doesn’t wait for a quieter week. The aches in your back, the stiffness in your shoulders, the twinge when you bend to load the dishwasher or climb the stairs one more time. These are everyday things, and they deserve everyday care, not a New Year’s resolution. And the thing is, the small stuff we ignore now has a habit of becoming the bigger stuff over time – the stiffness that doesn’t quite shift, the twinge that starts happening more and more. Starting now is a lot easier than trying to undo months of “I’ll start on Monday…”
That’s what the Yoga for Everyday Life Advent Calendar is here for. Twenty-four days, twenty-four short practices, each one built around the real movements of your day i.e. reaching, bending, carrying, standing, climbing. So that you can build the strength and ease to keep doing them well, this year and for many years to come.
A few minutes a day is all you need to start easing stress, calming your mind and giving your body the attention it’s been waiting for.
What’s Included in the Yoga Advent Calendar:
- 24 short practices all for just £15 (Fat Frog Family membership gets free access)
- Pre-recorded videos of under 20 minutes
- A mix of mat-based and chair-based yoga so you can choose what suits you best
- A balanced mix of practices for your back, shoulders, wrists and neck, alongside real-life movement like stairs, bending, reaching and caregiving
- Playful, themed classes that bring joy as well as ease
- Mindfulness practices to ease stress and quiet the mental chatter
- Daily guidance straight to your inbox
Made for You, Wherever You’re Starting From
Whether you’re brand new to yoga or have been practising for years, this calendar meets you exactly where you are.
Especially made with anyone in their 40s and beyond in mind, because this is often the age we start paying closer attention to staying strong, mobile and capable. Not just for today but for the years ahead. But you don’t need to be dealing with stiffness or struggling with anything to benefit. Every practice works just as well if you’re already fit and active and simply want to move better, prevent problems before they start and keep your body strong as time goes on.
And if life is genuinely busy, most of ours are, that’s exactly why these practices are short. A few minutes a day is all it takes to give you body the attention it deserves, whatever stage of life or fitness you’re at.
How the Yoga Challenge Supports You:
- Functional flexibility – moving with more ease in everyday life
- Strength and stability – supporting your body through the festive season (and beyond)
- Mobility – unlocking tight areas and creating freedom of movement
- Stress relief – breathing space in the middle of December chaos
- Clarity of mind – building habits that support mental wellbeing
Why Start Before the New Year?
So many people wait until January to “start afresh”. But December is the perfect time to create change, and everyday life doesn’t pause for the holidays, so why should your self-care? By committing to a short daily practice now, you’ll have built the habit before the New Year begins.
By Christmas Eve, you could be moving around the kitchen, keeping up with the (grand) kids and bending down to pick things up with less effort, and feeling stronger and calmer in both body and mind. Ready to step into the holidays (and the year ahead) with greater ease.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long are sessions?
Each pre-recorded video will be under 20 minutes long so that you can easily fit it into your day.
Do I need a mat?
Not necessarily! You can do yoga wherever is good for you. A mat provides cushioning and an anti-slip surface (essential for chair yogis).
Is there a chair yoga option?
Yes! All classes will be taught for both mat and chair based yogis
When do I receive the daily email?
You’ll receive a welcome email when you sign up and then another introduction just before we start. All Advent emails will be sent out around 6am each morning for any early risers!
I'm a Fat Frog Family member, do I still need to pay?
Nope! All Fat Frog Family members receive automatic access to the Yoga Advent Challenge as part of their membership.
Here’s what people had to say about past Challenges…
Thank you. Thank you. Absolutely loving them.
You work so hard to make them suitable for mat or chair, well done, I do whichever I fancy. The sessions seem much shorter than they are.
When doing the restorative sessions, they make me realise how much more deeper I can go into rest mode.
Thank you again. I’m very grateful for your time and trouble making them xx
Loving the advent calendar yoga videos.. admit I’m doing them around the pool in Lanzarote, but idea of a short session every day is brilliant and totally achievable… what a brilliant idea!!
Your teacher, Fay Froggett-Brown
Fay is not your typical yoga teacher. Having started to teach in 2018, she loves to teach practical yoga that is influenced by science and can be used in real life. teaches in the communities of Bolsover, Inkersall, New Whittington, Cutthorpe, Palterton and hosts online monthly membership. Fay teaches both mat and chair based classes suitable for beginners and those looking for accessible classes.
Fay came up with the idea of the Yoga Advent Challenge as a counter to all the January challenges you see, believing that yoga, a way to calm body and mind, is much more needed during the festive season.
