Yoga Register Teacher (YRT) 200 hour

I first started practising Yoga because of a persistent and painful back condition and was so convinced of Yoga's therapeutic benefits that I studied with Duncan Hulin of Devon School of Yoga, qualifying in 2000. Since then I have taught Yoga classes whilst enhancing and increasing my Yoga knowledge with a BSY Yoga Therapy course, qualifying in 2002. That led onto studying Bowen Technique - a remarkably effective therapy that consistently produces positive results. Now I am using all these skills/abilities to help people through injury and sickness by taking the holistic route and either showing them how to help themselves using Yoga or treating them individually using Bowen.

Yoga Register Teacher (YRT) 200 hour

I started my Yoga experience five years ago with initial studies of Iyengar Yoga in the Bavarian Alps in Germany. In the UK I also explored many other forms with different teachers. I have practised dynamic Ashtanga Yoga as well as much quieter forms of Hatha Yoga. Wanting to share my Yoga experience with others I began training as a Yoga teacher and Class Instructor which I completed in February 2006. Through my last pregnancy I discovered the immense benefits of pre and post Natal Yoga as well as the positive effects of Baby Yoga on my newborn and toddler. Since then, this has become the field in which I am primarily teaching and continuing to develop my practise and understanding.

Yoga is a journey, beginning with asana. The function of Yoga asana is to free the body from its habitual patterns of tension in order that it may reach a state of deep relaxation. In this state it is possible to release the mind from its attachment to the never-ending stream of projections through which we perceive the world. This is Yoga. Isabelle has been practising Yoga for the past seventeen years and teaching for the last five. A principal influence on her teaching is Godfrey Devereux of whom she has been a student since 1989, taking the Windfire Yoga teacher training course in 2003.

"YOGApose" is best described as a combination of Thai Massage and Yoga Asana. If you are looking for the "eightfold path" as originally described in Patangali's Sutra's, then YOGApose is probably NOT for you, although all are honoured. A typical class consists of gentle mobilisation of joints and soft tissue: Asana practice in a vinyasa flow: Thai massage techniques preparing you for relaxation.

I have been practising yoga since 1994 and teaching for the last two years. Originally from Brighton, I was fortunate in being able to start my yoga journey under the guidance of several Scaravelli-inspired teachers, particularly Peter Blackaby, who was my teacher for four years. Over the years I have practised with teachers from other disciplines, including Iyengar and Ashtanga Vinyasa, although the yoga of Vanda Scaravelli has remained my main influence. My classes encourage students to develop an awareness of their bodies, that they may release tension and find strength, comfort and stillness, not just in class, but throughout daily living. As a registered nurse, I bring many years of holisitic health knowledge to my teaching and am committed to preventative and therapuetic body work to meet individual needs.

I teach: General Yoga, Yoga for pregnancy, one to one Yoga and Yoga for children. General Yoga: Yoga is not just for the fit and flexible, it has therapeutic benefits for all ages, shapes and sizes. I offer a friendly mixed ability Yoga class for people who are curious to learn how Yoga can improve their health and lifestyle. My teaching style is creative and intuitive. My core inspiration comes from the teachings of Vanda Scaravelli and her book 'Awakening the Spine'. We will flow towards deepening awareness of how physical postures can unwind the body of tension, and how the breath becomes the tool to release the spine and align our bodies with gravity. I welcome pregnant women who are 14 weeks+ into my general classes. Pregnancy Yoga: Adapted from classic Yoga postures developed for each trimester. The class is a friendly, informal space for gentle stretching, breathing techniques and relaxation. It is an ideal opportunity for you to share stories and anxieties with other mums to be. Restorative Yoga: (one to one) This nurturing Yoga is practiced using props to gently support the body, helping it to open into the postures allowing the bodies system to rejuvenate. Beneficial for a weakened system, illness or a calming space revitalise. Children's Yoga: We improvise and create stories through physical shapes and breathwork the classes are accompanied by music with a quiet relaxation at the end.

Jo has been practicing yoga for over 10 years and teaches Hatha Yoga based in ancient yoga traditions to provide a spiritual practice that is both authentic and open to everyone. Providing a safe and comfortable environment in which individuals can practice and express themselves freely allows the internal connection, evolution and opening process of Yoga to take place. Jo teaches a Yoga Flow incorporating pranayama (breath) and asana (postures) into a moving meditation, along with chanting and meditation. 'This beautiful practice helps quieten the mind and calm the body whilst developing strength and clarity. It allows us to once again go with the flow of life and nature as we connect with the spirit within ourselves." The Yoga flow is suitable for all levels and abilities and can be adapted to suit everyone. Small classes, 1:1 tuition and pre & post- natal are available. Knowledge and skills from physiotherapy are invaluable in her teaching.

'Primal Yoga' has come into being through Satsang with Satyananda, and the love of his students who have asked that he share this Truth through the path of Yoga. It's intention is to clarify the original vision of Yoga to the student, to bring depth and subtleness, delivered from one who has a clear vision of the Truth. This is unique from the perspective that its not so much another school of Yoga, but offers a quality in which teachers and students can integrate into their own school/tradition and practice "Primal Yoga aims at providing depth to the practice of Yoga. The primal depth that Yoga is aiming at, which is first harmony in the body, harmony in the mind, Samadhi and Realisation of Self. It's a slow yoga, not a yoga of varieties, of positions. It's a yoga of observation, meditation and development of awareness in consciousness." Satyananda Satyananda was born Bernardo Lischinsky, in Uruguay in 1964. At the age of 22 he came to Europe to travel. Here, he was introduced to the way of "self-enquiry" as taught by Sri Ramana Maharshi. Satyananda speaks of inner peace. His answers and interactions reveal what is most sacred and elusive but, paradoxically, also obvious. To meet him is to give yourself the challenge of focusing on the indescribable reality of your own essence. In that space every-thing stops. The mind stops. Thoughts stop. Knowledge stops - and what remains is empty and clear. This clarity gives you freedom and peace and a new perspective for the demands of a busy life.

I have been practising various forms of Yoga for over twenty years now and find that it continues to evolve and allow my changing sense of self expression, my relationship with my bodymind and the world around me. Yoga is the great container; a space for me to play, explore and observe from; a grand stage upon which I can relate to the archetypal, symbolic and visceral aspects of being human. Although I have a traditional training, these days my Yoga is fluid and ultimately adaptable, embracing modern research, ancient knowledge and the unique challenges of our modern age. I use the fundamental ideas of ancient Yoga philosophy and try to meld these into a contemporary understanding of movement, breath, posture and being. My Yoga ethos is about how we can learn to live more at ease within our bodies and cultivate spaciousness in our minds, developing compassion, strength and equanimity through our practice. It is a practise that always begins 'where we are', and includes light and dark; the joy and the shadow aspects of being. My Yoga is an opportunity to turn up at my own life!

My Yoga practice has taken me many places over the years, nourished me through two pregnancies, and grounded me when I have been scattered by life. I have purposely trained with a variety of disciplines including the Himalayan Institute, Don Stapleton and bodywork as a way to keep diversity and variety in my practice. I am interested in; how the body remembers and holds memory as posture, movement and pattern; how the breath moves through every cell and ways we can work with it; and how the relationship between body and breath affect the mind. My classes are about integrating the whole of the self in a playful and pragmatic yoga practise, taking it out of class and living more comfortably with ourselves and our world.
