the light in me bows to the light in you
you can love living in your body.
it is this absolutely magical and exquisitely designed home. it has amazing potential for movement, locomotion, work, beauty, energy, expression, sensuality, spiritual experience, love: all the things that make life delicious, exciting and meaningful.
yoga for grace and presence
i work with busy, creative, urban students who want to experience connection to the beauty, grace and strength of their own bodies. through the form of yoga we challenge ourselves to grow and heal, to joyfully live out our dreams and purpose in life.
my teaching uses the form of yoga to instantiate long lasting changes in each client and student. in group classes, and private and bespoke yoga sessions, you will learn effective, efficient and therapeutic techniques, leading to greater flexibility and ease in movement, improved posture, and healing from injuries. This greater grace and presence in your body leads to greater enjoyment and fulfillment in life. i work with the physical body, to help it repattern. i work with the energy body to help understand the limitations and blockages we perceive in the body and work through them.
my inspiration comes from my students. some are beginners on the path of yoga. others are very experienced in yoga practice. we come from all walks of life, but might share these traits with you:
- you value your life, your health and your sense of well-being.
- you are creating a path for yourself through life that inspires you, and you want to feel your best through it.
- you are busy, active, creative and like moving, growing and learning.
- you try things, new things, especially if you get the idea they might feel good.
- you make time and space for the things you value and you build your life to allow them.
- you can feel inspired and touched by words, songs, poems, paintings, flowers, birds, nature, art, spirit and love.
what we can do:
yoga need not be a scary, difficult practice. it can be adapted to people in every physical condition: from dancers and gymnasts and people in wheelchairs. it is just about learning how to adapt the practice and what you need to work on. some students need to connect to their breathing, and can do this in ten to twenty minutes a day. some students love deep physical work and love classes that are an hour and a half to two hours. some people need to learn how to repattern their movement to heal from an injury.
Here are a few things you might check out:
if you’ve been doing yoga a while, you might be interested to know about the teacher training and A BRAND NEW teacher mentoring programme. recently i have been reflecting on the practice of teaching, which you can read about on my blog. there are also some exciting workshops coming up.
or you might just want to know when and where i am teaching, what a private session or consultation might help you with, what’s going on at 141, or what i have been thinking about recently. you might even want to have a look at what other people say about working with me.
i hope to see you soon.
may all beings know peace. may the merits of this practice extend universally and serve the well being of all.
om tat sat.
om shanti.
peace.
