Yoga teaching experience really helps

There are only 7 teachers at YogaSpace.
 
Between us, we have nearly 100 years of teaching experience.
 
We are only a small team and some of us have been teaching here for many years. I even did my teacher training here almost 2 decades ago. 
 
This amount of experience means we have a lot to draw on when we teach every person who comes to class.
 
This matters if we want to ensure that the practice, the poses, the breathing, will be able to meet the individual where they are on that day and help them get what they need from their yoga. 
 

Yoga is as unique as you
Yoga isn't one-size-fits-all. We are all unique. Our reasons for why we come to yoga, our bodies, our levels of energy, our injuries, our life experiences, our previous illnesses and stuck tensions are completely individual. And they all show up on the mat in our attitudes, body, breath, postural habits, emotions and thought patterns.
 
The beauty of yoga is that there is always something you can do that will benefit you enormously.
 

The art of yoga
Finding the right starting point, the best way to ensure that the postures, sequences, pace, approach and techniques are suitable. This is the art of yoga and where experience will bring a richness to what you do.  And where the joy of yoga can be discovered by everyone.
 
It might be that a more gentle class is the best place to get the most from your practice. Or perhaps your own level of experience means that you are well placed to adapt the practice for yourself in any class.
 
Sometimes 1:1 is the best place to start, ensuring that it is adapted in a very bespoke way. Yoga can be very carefully and therapeutically applied using 1:1 guidance. This is especially good when working with health issues or for home practices, where the postures and approach selected are going to help you make the most of your time on your mat.
 
 
Find your yoga
Any yoga is better than no yoga. It all counts and is all worth showing up for. 
 
Part of your journey with yoga is finding the right teacher who can guide you towards your most ideal practice, and help you adapt and change it when your life-situation requires it.
 
This doesn't necessarily mean advancing you towards harder, stronger, more complex poses, which in my opinion are a red herring in what we are doing on our mats. But in helping you unlock the postures, techniques, and breath that will help you develop your version of vibrant aliveness, spacious ease in your body and mind, and ultimately more joy in every day. ​
