I am a Hatha Yoga teacher (BWY trained with continuous on-going training). I run classes in the south Somerset area. My classes focus very much on the individual needs of each student – what may be right for one person isn’t necessarily right for another. I therefore modify postures to suit each person as necessary. I tend to teach sequences but often will explore different themes or postures to get better understanding of the posture, the body or the self for example and interweave this theme throughout the practice to reinforce learning. I always check out the needs of the students in front of me; my goal to deliver what is a good practice for them in that particular moment.

Yoga on the mat is just preparation for yoga off the mat in everyday life. My aim is to encourage each person to develop themselves on all levels to become stronger, more flexible and healthier and importantly, kinder inwards and outwardly, with an awareness of gratitude, all of which leads to greater happiness. Finding contentment and equanimity where you feel at one with yourself and the world around you is the main aim of yoga.

I find people can always achieve more than they think and it is such a privilege to see a student’s joy when they accomplish something they thought was beyond them. Yoga is so empowering. All it needs is awareness followed by action to create positive change.

I initially trained with the British Wheel Of Yoga for 3 years to become a qualified teacher. I later trained for a further 2 1/2 years to become an advanced teacher in a more healing style of yoga, right at the core of yogic tradition. I consistently update my training through attending workshops, courses and yoga days. I am fully insured and have a current first aid certificate.
