NEW yoga and tanning studios have been opened at Darlington's Dolphin Centre.
The yoga studio was created to meet a growing demand for a holistic approach to health and fitness.
The tanning studio features a range of equipment, including a vertical tanning machine.
Dolphin Centre manager Mike Crawshaw said: "Busy lifestyles mean that people want to spend their leisure time exercising both body and mind. It is a pretty dull time of year all-round, with long, dark nights and summer seemingly light years away.
"Activities such as yoga and tai chi are increasingly popular as people follow the example of celebrities by focusing on the mind as well as the body. We have experienced an upsurge in customers for yoga and tai chi sessions, who are seeking to reduce stress levels and get in shape."
