“The postures of<br />

Satyananda Yoga<br />

have been challenging<br />

but not in any<br />

way competitive.<br />

Particularly now<br />

at this later stage<br />

of my pregnancy<br />

the use of natural<br />

breath awareness<br />

and meditation have<br />

helped greatly in the<br />

time before sleep.”<br />

student comment<br />

from small beginnings, where<br />

a few people attended free<br />

classes in a room in my home.<br />

These past 18 months have<br />

been a journey, and I am<br />

now teaching at a beautiful<br />

local space, offering regular<br />

chanting evenings at my<br />

home for students, partners,<br />

children and friends followed<br />

by shared suppers. There<br />

have also been three Sunday<br />

workshops with different<br />

Satyananda teachers this<br />

year, and an annual retreat<br />

this June at an Ashram in<br />

Wales. At the end of my<br />

first year of teaching we<br />

celebrated together by<br />

gathering at a local restaurant<br />

and also welcoming our first<br />

Satyananda Yoga baby.<br />

I teach systematically and<br />

safely, drawing on the<br />

teachings of Satyananda Yoga<br />

and personal experience over<br />

the past 11 years. My vision<br />

is to teach in a way that<br />

fully includes each and every<br />

person in the group, nurturing<br />

a place of trust where<br />

students are encouraged to<br />

explore life. Teaching this<br />

way enables people to open<br />

up the possibilities that Yoga<br />

“Yoga has enabled<br />

me to listen to my<br />

body and my mind,<br />

not just within the<br />

sessions of yoga<br />

practice but within<br />

everyday life.”<br />

student comment<br />

can offer, looking at how to<br />

take yoga off the mat at the<br />

weekly class and out into<br />

their everyday life, enabling<br />

an expanding sense of<br />

awareness of each aspect of<br />

life in the City.<br />

Everyone is most welcome to<br />
