"Yoga Citta vritti nirodah"
Yoga, finding stillness through
settling of the mind.My Approach
The classes I teach always include focused breath work. Every posture is explained with careful guidance including how to enter and exit them. I use traditional Sanskrit terms for the names of the postures as I have been taught. Variations are offered within the postures which might include using blocks, bricks or straps. Classes always finish with a relaxation, savasana and a closing chant.
Throughout the practice I aim to support students in order to develop focus and stillness to the mind, to gently stretch and to build strength, always respecting individual anatomy.
