Padmasimha

I see yoga as a way of keeping the body and mind healthy. Through its emphasis on enquiry, awareness and positivity, it can bring about both calmness and renewed energy. I have been practicing yoga since 1989, originally in the Iyengar tradition where I trained and qualified as a teacher. I now incorporate other discplines in my own practice and in class, including flow sequences, yin yoga and meditation. My classes combine movement and strong posture work (vinyasa and asana) with quiet meditative practice (yin), adapting according to individual needs

Angela

I have been teaching yoga at the centre for over a year, having qualified as a teacher through the British Wheel of Yoga in August 2005. Introduced to yoga at school in the 1970's, I have been attending classes and practicing over the last 20 years.I draw on both the Hatha yoga and Iyengar disciplines as well as life experience in my teaching. I am keen to communicate yoga in a way that accessible to all students

Aaron

I teach dynamic hatha yoga which is a blend of different yoga styles, mainly infleuenced by Ashtanga Vinyasa, but adopting a more free style approach than the traditional method, which allows the student to experience all facets of yoga practise. Starting from basic postures and building up to more advanced postures, the class focuses on flowing from pose to pose while engaging deep rhythmic breathing, which produces a high heat, high energy in the body, which unwinds tight muscles, strengthens and tones every muscle, releases toxins and brings the mind to a one pointed focus. The result is a moving meditation, where the mind is stilled during dynamic motion. This stillness and clarity of mind is taken off the mat and applied to everyday life resulting in union of body, mind and soul.

Isabel

I have been practising yoga for the past 15 years and I am a qualified British Wheel of Yoga teacher. My focus when teaching is to enable students to take what they learn from my yoga class and incorporate this into their eveyday life. I teach students to move with the breath, holding postures correctly and ensuring students can fully relax at the end. I find my own practice is essential to ensure I experience that balance in my own life (yoga and of course chocolate!) I also provide one to one tuition for those interested in developing their own practice.
