1 to 1 yoga can be many things. Sometimes I teach inversions, other times the focus is on breathing, learning about alignement and anatomy of the postures, and perhaps how to practice and move with an injury.

About 7 weeks ago I started a journey with a new student. This person came to me with a severe kyphosis in their upper back ( very common issue these days with so much time spent on hunching over the screens ) .

I must admit I really had to utilise my creativity and my 3 decades of experience in teaching to understand how I can help to re-align the spine , bring back more mobility and actually access any of the postures I wanted to use in the process.

Recently we reached a huge turning point , the student came in explaining how they could for the first time hang from a bar with confidence. This was not previously possible as the person could not lift their arms beyond face level , so to hang from above was not achievable.

I cannot describe how happy I felt seeing the person in front of me glowing with hope and confidence again in their body. They believed it was possible to find ease and better functionality again.

Wonderful moment.

If you are interested in coming on a journey with me please get in touch. I offer 1 to 1 tutoring in Leeds and Harrogate.

The fulfilment of teaching. ✨✨✨

I received this lovely message from a student after yesterday’s class:

“I wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed tonight’s class. Those adjustments made a huge difference for me and I was very pleased with those second series poses!!”

As a teacher, I am constantly questioning my teaching.

What are my students learning and gaining from my classes?
How can I improve my delivery?
How can I enrich my language and the way I communicate?
Are my yoga flows engaging and purposeful?
Am I choosing postures that challenge, support and teach?
And perhaps most importantly, how do I help people to feel and understand their own bodies?

There is so much to consider when teaching. And I think it is vital that we keep questioning, exploring and refining our practice as teachers.

But every now and then, a message like this arrives and gives you a little moment of confidence - a reminder that perhaps something is working, that something has connected, and that the work you put into your teaching is making a difference to someone.

For me, that is one of the most fulfilling parts of teaching.

Always learning. Always improving. Always exploring.

And hopefully, always helping someone discover a little more about themselves through movement. 🧘‍♀️
