British Naturism, an organisation that
promotes naturism in the UK, has introduced free virtual yoga classes for the
first time during coronavirus pandemic.
There have also been nude drinkers enjoying
its ‘Naked Pub’, and baking fans are logging in for the ‘Naked Kitchen’.
They have experienced a surge in interest,
with 40 new members signing up in just a single week.
The group - whose membership currently stands
at around 9,000 - saw 200 people take part in one naked yoga session alone.

Pamela Fraser, a nudist, has reported seeing a
huge spike in naked online sessions... “I think people are embracing the fact
they don’t have to feel or look perfect during the lockdown. Perfect isn’t
realistic.”
In her baking class every Wednesday, Pamela
has whipped up flapjacks and a salted caramel cheesecake whilst starkers.
“I think lockdown has opened up another world
for people to get involved in. Pamela, who is from Preston in Lancashire, has
estimated that she clocks up to eight hours on Zoom video chat every week.
