I'm Fiona and I offer Hatha, Vinyasa and Restorative Yoga classes that take individual needs and preferences into consideration.  All classes focus on breath, strength work and stretching poses as well as guided relaxation to bring ease to body and mind.  ​I aim to help you learn to listen to and trust the inherent wisdom of your body to maintain wellness.

​Yoga is different things to different people.  For some it can be to strengthen and realign the body or to become more flexible.  It can be to find a way of calming and nurturing the emotions, to find time out.  For some it is a spiritual practice, to find union with or realise their own divinity.  I approach Yoga, like life, with a spirit of enquiry and find it to be a sweetand pleasurable activity which is of benefit to me for all the reasons above.

​I have been practising yoga since 1985, starting in India practising Iyengar Yoga in Pune and completing 200 Hours teacher training with the Amrita School of Yoga in South London in 2012.  I am trained in Yoga Therapy at the Integrative Yoga Therapy Centre in Garopaba, Brazil and in Tantra Yoga at the Shri Kali Ashram in Rishikesh.  I have also had the opportunity to study with many great teachers on workshops, such as Judith Lasater on Restorative Yoga.  A list of all my teachers to whom I am eternally grateful is at the bottom of the page.  I am a member of the Independent Yoga Network,  CRB checked and insured.

Over the years my interest in maintaining wellness through consideration of the whole person has lead me to study different Yoga traditions, Yoga Therapy, Thai Yoga massage, nutrition, Chi Gung and Mindfulness.  I incorporate elements of these in classes, workshops and consultations.  

I want to thank and acknowledge all the teachers who have gone before, who I did not meet but whose influence has been incredible in bringing down through the years this beautiful tradition that with no central authority has proved itself to be true through the experiential corroboration of each of us, who find this path for ourselves.  Abhinavagupta, Ksemaraja, Patanjali, Krishnamacharya, BKS Iyengar ........ and so many more.  There is such joy in the fact that this cannot be taken away once we know, such strength and such a source of hope for the world.  

​I also want to thank my actual teachers (some in a virtual medium) who have contributed to my journey in ways they will never know.  The layers build one upon the other, each teacher's gift another leaf on the tree.
