Yoga classes with me work to strengthen and revitalise the whole body, work closely with the breath and encourage a mindful approach to practicing yoga. Traditional yoga postures using slow flowing movements closely linked to the breath throughout the practice.
Viniyoga uses precision and alignment with adaptations offered in each posture to suit any health issues or limitations. The yoga classes welcome all levels of ability and experience, and the postures are taken step-by-step. I support practitioners to explore challenges to their own level, offering challenging or more accessible options during each class for when they feel ready to ensure your practice is suitable. A meditative link is supported throughout the practice for overall well-being.

Yoga is for everyone, no matter what your level of experience, fitness or mobility. I apply the tools and techniques of yoga to suit your situation and have worked across the health spectrum from Olympic athletes to those with limited mobility and multiple health issues.
I also teach appropriately adapted yoga during pregnancy and offer yoga therapy, working with individuals to help a wide range of health concerns. I mentor other yoga teachers to support them in their yoga teaching and regularly lead yoga workshops. Here is what some of my students say about my classes: "I feel stronger after classes physically and mentally and for days afterwards." "Brilliant classes, essential weekly de-stress." "You're a great teacher and I've found I finally understand about the breath now" |
Here is a recent radio interview where I was a guest on Steve Yabsley's BBC Radio Bristol lunchtime show.
Training lineage
Krishnamacharya (Forefather of modern yoga. Ashtanga, Iyengar, Hatha, Bikram, Vinyasa Flow all originated from his teachings) | | Desikachar (Son and long-time student of Krishnamacharya) | | Paul Harvey (Student of Desikachar for 23 years) | | Clara Lemon (Student of Paul Harvey since 2005) |
Yoga training
I've been practising yoga since 1998. I came to it when living for 12 years in New York with a stressful job, and I found it immediately gave me more energy and made me feel stronger and calmer, even on hectic days.
My yoga teacher training was an in-depth 4-year yoga training course with Paul Harvey and I have a yoga teaching diploma from the Centre for Yoga Studies, accredited by the British Wheel of Yoga (the governing body for Yoga in the UK to maintain high quality teaching standards).
I've also completed specialist training in
- Pregnancy Yoga and Post-Natal Yoga
- Yoga for Children
- Hatha Yoga energetics
- Yoga Therapy
- Yoga and mindfulness
I'm a teaching member of the British Wheel of Yoga, a teaching member of the Association for Yoga Studies and qualified as a Yoga Therapist to the level required by the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council. Qualified to Level 4 REPs (register of exercise professionals).
I'm committed to continuing my yoga studies and take regular continuing professional development training and also participate in yoga community activities to further develop my knowledge and experience.
I've explored different yoga traditions including viniyoga, Iyengar yoga, Ashtanga yoga, Scaravelli yoga, and hatha yoga. The approach that I teach and practice is viniyoga which has an emphasis on maximising each posture by adjusting it to each person's capability and working closely with the breath to deepen the practice and bring a meditative focus throughout.
