YOGA CLASSES | PRIVATE YOGA | MASSAGE & BODYWORK | YOGA NIDRA | BREATHWORK | HOLISTIC APPROACH
I am Bara, a dedicated and insured yoga teacher, breathwork practitioner, and massage therapist serving the West Berkshire and Reading communities with over 20 years of experience.
Whether you are looking for a group class in-person or online, tailored private 1-to-1 sessions, a guided “deep reset” through Yoga Nidra and breathwork, or corporate sessions, workshops, and retreats – my focus is on creating a space for your regeneration and growth.
To provide a truly holistic experience, I also offer therapeutic bodywork, including Thai Yoga Massage and soft/deep tissue treatments, designed to complement your yoga practice and ease physical tension.
I’d love to help you find your balance by focusing on the vital connection between your physical, mental, and spiritual health, helping you navigate the demands of modern life with ancient wisdom and a modern approach. My focus is on back and joint pain, strength and flexibility and mental wellness support through meditation and breathing techniques.
I work with individuals and businesses across West Berkshire, Reading, Pangbourne, Purley, and Caversham.
*Yoga, Yoga Nidra & Meditation
My yoga sessions are tailored for all levels and are designed to nourish the body – from strengthening and increasing flexibility to supporting the nervous system with breathwork and guided relaxation.
– Yoga Nidra & Meditation: I specialise in practices that encourage deep internal listening and restoration. Yoga Nidra offers a “deep reset” for the mind and body, while my meditation sessions provide a journey toward self-understanding and mental clarity.
– Yoga Workshops & Retreats: Seasonal opportunities to dive deeper into your practice and spiritual growth within a supportive community.
– Private 1-to-1 Sessions: For those seeking a bespoke approach. These sessions are tailored entirely to your needs – whether that is recovering from injury, deepening your yoga practice, discovering spiritual journey, or simply finding a dedicated hour of peace in a hectic week.
* Breathwork
I incorporate conscious breathwork into my yoga classes and also offer personally tailored breathwork sessions. These help you release stored tension, manage stress, and tap into your body’s innate ability to heal. It is a practical and powerful tool for anyone looking to find mental clarity and emotional ease, particularly for those navigating anxiety or depression.
*Holistic Bodywork & Massage Therapy
To complement your movement practice, I offer bodywork designed to release physical blockages and energy stagnation:
_ Thai Yoga Massage: An ancient practice featuring a dynamic blend of assisted stretching and rhythmic pressure to improve flexibility and energy flow.
– Therapeutic Massage: A tailored mix of soft and deep tissue techniques to address specific physical tension and support muscular recovery – enhanced with hot stones during the colder months.
*Locations & Contact
I am proud to serve the following areas: Pangbourne, Purley, Reading, Caversham, and West Berkshire towns and villages.
Sessions can be held at my dedicated space in Tilehurst or, by arrangement, in the comfort of your own home or workplace.
I look forward to hearing from you and exploring how we can work together to help you thrive.
