Yoga with Shanti

I’ve been practicing yoga since 2001 and have been a qualified Level 1 Yoga Alliance UK teacher since 2016. I undertook my teacher training initially as a means to further enhance my own knowledge and experience but decided to start teaching classes both to keep learning and to share my enjoyment of yoga with other people. In 2018 I undertook further Yoga for Sports training with Yoga Therapy Irel

and because I have a particular interest in providing sports-specific yoga for athletes. I take a simple down-to-earth approach to my teaching in recognition that everyone has a different reason for wanting to practice yoga and with the aim of helping people discover a form of yoga that suits their own personal tastes and needs. I hope this makes my classes both physically beneficial and enjoyable. My focus is always on building strength and good alignment rather than doing poses just because they look fancy because I think this is what makes yoga most effective. I deliberately keep both my studio and online classes small so that I can tailor my routines to individual students and offer one-to-one attention to form and alignment. I also offer corporate yoga classes and one-to-one sessions for sports people. Whether you are a sports person looking to develop your cross-training or someone who’d like to wind down after a long day at your desk my classes are designed to offer accessible yoga for beginners and intermediate students of all ages, abilities and backgrounds.
