Yoga Classes
Wherever my feet land me in the world, I share my love of yoga. The reason I came to teaching yoga is because I wanted to share with others what I received through my years of yoga practice - yoga spun my entire life around by a full 180-degree turn, on and off the mat! It's often forgotten that teaching yoga is a Karmic role - you gift a person with space and time for themselves through a beautiful 5000-year-old lifestyle. This ancient tradition is something to be cherished and upheld, and it's my role and honour to bring that to others. I teach because I am passionate, dedicated and humbled by this primaeval lifestyle, not because I'm a yogi.
But to immerse yourself into such a sacred practice requires a journey. A continual journey of self-exploration that is unique for every practitioner. And that's where my classes differ to others. I offer people a journey of the self, not me.
I uphold a space where the beginning and the end meld into one, for a full nourishing and never-ending cycle. I'm all about walking my talk and sharing my Sadhana (daily practice), where you will find complete grounding and, in time, discover your inner stillness. The Asana (poses) are the vessel to get to the stillness. And it's only when you reach the stillness, that you will be able to listen and see the truth.
“Yoga is a journey of the self, through the self to the self” ~Bhagavad Gita~
What can you expect from my classes?
Well from any Vinyasa, Rocket or power class expect blood (pumping), sweat (dripping) and tears (of laughter!). We will have loads of fun, great music and cheesy puns - I can only apologise in advance. But don't worry, you'll be given the time to relax and gather yourself in a long, deep Savasana. I guarantee you will walk away feeling invigorated and re-energised with a beaming smile!
If your choice is to join one of my Yin, restorative or meditation sessions, I will guide you through an exploration of the self. We will observe the stillness and uncover any parts of you that are hiding. You will leave feeling rested, soft and maybe a little stoned.
Who can come?
Everyone and anyone, If you have time to grace me with your presence on your mat while I’m around then I welcome you to share this space of home with me. I welcome all level’s of practitioner to join my classes, and I assure you that throughout each class I offer options, assists and guidance to ensure you are comfortable throughout the session.
So, where am I teaching?
Below are the places I have regular classes booked in, and I would be honoured to see you there. But you know I get itchy feet, so make sure you check back here regularly for any updates on where I've landed!
