Hello and welcome
My classes are based in Jesmond and online, I teach a breath lead approach to Yoga posture work which is the integration of mind, body and breath in a step by step way which can be adapted to all levels. The classes also integrate a broader range of practices other than just posture which includes conscious breath work & Pranayama, cleansing techniques, guided relaxation & meditation.
I have over 25+ years of experience and have trained with numerous teachers from the both India and the west, you can find out more about my classes and experience within the site.

About me
I came to Yoga in 1999 via tanscendental meditation with local teacher Chris Greathead and shortly after found an Iyengar Yoga class with Mary Putman which was a great foundation. I found the combination of regular posture work and meditation really keeps the mind and body in balance.
