Led 3 classes a week, both Yin and dynamic Vinyasa flow, preferring the expression that yields from a flowing practice.

• Facilitated teachings on breathing techniques, pranayama for boosting vitality.
• Encouraged conscious connection to the physical and five subtle bodies through sensation, feeling and emotional inquiry.
• Enabled students to connect with all dimensions of self through explorative learning, developing the witness state to observe thoughts, feelings, sensations.
• Allowing for space for the student to develop their inner guidance by deepening the capacity for listening, exploring, experimenting.
• Encouraging the practice of compassion and surrender.

• The sequences are fluid and strong, sometimes challenging, but can always be modified. I love to include arm balances and watch over time as strength and trust builds and the impossible becomes possible.

• Promoting a sense of ease, softness.
• Honouring the body so as to maintain safety and sustainable practice.
