It is always good to be clear about your motivation for doing yoga, what do you want to get from your practice? Some people want a dynamic yoga class in Farnham from the mindset of having a workout. Other people want a slower and more relaxing class.

My approach is centred around increasing your awareness and understanding of how you move on your mat so these skills can be transferred across to our daily life.

You gradually increase awareness of your body to recognise any weaknesses or restrictions and asymmetries, then you can do the work to remedy the issue. Another key part of my approach, also connected with awareness, is the recognition of where you commonly hold tension and your patterns of holding.

These patterns and habits can be dismantled by developing the skill of softening and working carefully with the breath. Shallow breathing and breath-holding are surprisingly common traits resulting in lower energy and poor stress management.

You will learn about efficient biomechanical alignment, optimal load-bearing positions and how to modify postures when the restriction is present to avoid strain.
