One-to-one yoga sessions are personalised; ensuring the pace, content and focus is suited to your exact needs.
Whether you are a complete beginner or are already practicing and want a challenge, the class will be tailored to suit you.
One-to-one classes are an ideal way to progress safely and comfortably, especially if you are receiving health treatments, recovering from fatigue/illness/trauma/grief.
One-to-one classes are available on request. These can be delivered at your home/personal space or at one of my venues. All one-to-one classes are tailored to your desired goal or focus, which is discussed prior (free consultation), over the telephone, via email or face to face.
Working together to meet your goals, whether that is strength, stress management or weight loss, I can help you to achieve more balance and clarity to move forwards.
Practising in your own space, at home or at one of my venues gives a more attentive focus, allowing you to lose self awareness and fully immerse yourself in to the yoga flow.
We can work together to meet at a time convenient for you, if you can't make it to a class because of work or general life commitments.
A strong core stabilises your lower back, strengthening the abdominal area, which improves the body's balance and coordination.
Your body is likely to feel better overall once you work on lengthening and opening your muscles. When your muscles are looser and less tense, you’ll have less aches and pains.
Your muscles will have the right amount of tension so that they’re strong enough to support you and your movements, allowing you to become more physically fit.
Active forms of yoga can be an effective tool to help you lose weight, and you may find that the awareness gained through a gentle, relaxing yoga practice helps you to lose weight as well.
Regular yoga practice creates mental clarity and calmness; increases body awareness; relieves chronic stress patterns; relaxes the mind; centres attention and sharpens concentration.
Beyond off-loading stress, practicing yoga may help lower blood pressure, blood cholesterol and blood glucose levels, as well as heart rate, making it a useful lifestyle intervention.
My One-To-One yoga classes are timed around and tailored to you.
A yoga mat if you have your own, and also a cushion and or blanket if you would like to stay for Savasana (restful relaxation) at the end of the class. It is important you bring a bottle of water to keep hydrated during and after class and any blocks or straps to aid movement. I do provide blocks and straps free of charge and hire mats for a small fee.
Loose fitted or stretchy/flexible clothing. It can be nice to wear an extra long-sleeved top to start and finish the class to allow your body to stay warm whilst warming up and cooling down.
To aid balance, a 4mm thick yoga mat is best for my classes for optimal connection between you and the ground.
Ideally, allow 2 hours before a class to eat any large meals or eat a small snack an hour beforehand. It is highly recommended to drink plenty of fluids during the day prior to your class to ensure you keep hydrated.
Absolutely, you can. It is better and safer to practise yoga initially with a reduced ROM (range of movement) as hyper mobility can lead to injury when starting out. It is also great to measure your progress over the time and to explore how differently your body feels in this beginning state compared to how it feels after regular practise.
