The Curly Yogi in short
The Curly Yogi is Debbie Copner's Telford practice, teaching Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin and Nidra at Ketley Community Centre and Kynnersley Village Hall [1] [3]. Debbie describes decades of personal practice and training across pregnancy, postnatal, menopause and Ayurveda disciplines [2], and every class is pitched as gentle and beginner-friendly with workshops and retreats beyond [1]. That positioning suits complete beginners. Monthly women's circles and day retreats give room to go deeper beyond the weekly class [1].
Customer reviews are outstanding, with five stars on Google [4]. Every class carries the same published price for close to an hour of yoga [3]. What counts against The Curly Yogi is the paperwork gap: no qualification scheme, insurance details or trading-history record are published [1] [2].
Our verdict
Our judgement: The Curly Yogi suits you if you are new to yoga and want a gentle £8 class close to Ketley [1] [3]. The breadth of styles on offer gives room to progress [2]. What counts against it is the paperwork gap, with no qualification scheme, insurance details or trading history published.

Questions about The Curly Yogi
Is The Curly Yogi any good?
On the evidence, yes for beginners: it sits fifth in our Telford table, holds five stars on Google, and pitches every class as gentle and all-ability at a single published price [1] [3] [4]. No qualification scheme or insurance details are published. Read the full review, then book one gentle class through the site.
Is The Curly Yogi registered with a yoga scheme?
No mandatory registration applies to yoga teaching, and industry qualifications can't be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked. Debbie Copner lists training disciplines on her own about page without claiming a register entry [2]. Ask which training sits behind the class you plan to join.
What does The Curly Yogi charge?
Every class costs £8 for close to an hour, published on the booking page with the Ketley and Kynnersley venues [3]. That single-price list is among the clearest in the round. Confirm the session length for the class you choose before you pay.
