I teach yoga that’s accessible, inclusive and all about moving your body in a beneficial way. My classes are down-to-earth, fun and often in community settings. I teach an accessible Hatha style with a focus on alignment and the breath. I also teach Yin yoga, Restorative, Yoga Nidra, Chair yoga and beginners, often for people who are new to yoga or exercise, returning from injury, older, disabled or neurodivergent. I’m based in the city of Leeds in the north east of England.
I also offer teacher training and workshops on yoga history and philosophy based on my PhD reading and research and my background in religious studies and Buddhism.
