I am taking a break from teaching yoga after the birth of my first child.
Hoping to be back up and running again soon.
Welcome
Hello, welcome and thank you for visiting my site. I practise and teach a traditional, meditative approach to yoga called Viniyoga. I am based in the village of Orcop in South Herefordshire where I live with my husband Mike and Bella our border terrier. I have been practising yoga for approximately 14 years and teaching for 8. I completed my yoga teacher training with Dave Charlton and Ranju Roy of Sadhana Mala in 2015 and am a certified teacher with the Association of Yoga Studies (AYS) I am passionate about teaching accessible and inclusive yoga sessions and advocating a holistic approach to well-being. I teach weekly yoga classes and one-to-one lessons in Hereford and Herefordshire. It would be lovely to hear from you if you would like to start practising yoga or if you would like some support in developing your yoga practise further.
The Viniyoga approach to Yoga
Yoga is a holistic, discipline which treats the mind and the body and there are many ways in which we can practise. Viniyoga means 'The special application of Yoga.' It is a flexible approach which encourages the adaptation and modification of yoga practices to suit individual needs and circumstances.
We often start a yoga practise by exploring the relationship between the body and the breath by working with Asana - postures and movement and Pranayama - seated breathing practices. We learn to cultivate stability and ease within the body and to regulate the breath so that it becomes smooth and even. Paying close attention to the breath during a yoga practise helps to support movement, free up space, reduce tension and bring steadiness to the mind.
