About Garden Yogis

I've been a yoga student for 30 years, attending weekly classes, training workshops and regularly practising independently throughout this time. I further developed my yoga practice by qualifying as a yoga teacher, certified by Yoga Alliance, which combined my personal passion for yoga with my professional life as a secondary school teacher for 25 years.

 

My classes blend nearly 30 years of Iyengar yoga experience - a deep understanding of asanas (poses) and how to adapt safely for different levels of ability - with elements of Vinyasa flow yoga for greater expression and Yin yoga for deeper release and restoration. Through focusing on yoga for strength and balance in the body, my aim is for students to develop their own understanding of how to establish this for the mind also. 

​

I particularly enjoy practising yoga outdoors, for the feeling of freedom this experience gives, and the connectivity with nature and the earth.

​

The aim of Garden Yogis is to share the benefits of practising yoga with everyone in the community, making it friendly and accessible to all - from those who want to just 'give it a go' through to committed yogis! Classes are therefore provided at low-cost with no pre-booking required. If you have any questions or concerns about health or medical conditions please contact me beforehand so we can chat through your individual needs and decide if a 'general' class is suitable.
