Ashtanga Yoga |
|
I am a fully qualified Ashtanga Yoga Teacher, and have been practising since 1999 and teaching since 2002, gaining my Ashtanga Yoga Diploma in 2003. I have also studied with a number of leading Ashtanga Yoga practitioners including David Williams, Brian Cooper, David Swenson and John Scott, and regularly attend workshops and classes. In my personal practice I am currently working on the Intermediate Series. I teach yoga students from absolute Beginners to Intermediate level, ( Primary and Intermediate series ) and have taught a huge range of people from Professional Athletes to those with physical issues, ranging from pregnancy to a range of permanent injuries and disabilities. My teaching style is friendly and open, and I encourage questions from students and engage interest through demonstration and description with Q & A sessions at the end of class. I teach and practice daily, and have taught in New York, Leeds and Manchester, appearing on Television to promote the benefits of yoga and am currently writing a book about Yoga. In my "real life" I am an Artist, and have had exhibitions worldwide, which have led me to some very interesting places where I have combined my passion for painting and yoga, and met some very interesting people along the way. Thanks to everyone who has practised with me, and to all my students for everything you have taught me.
