Yoga Barn - the essence of yoga
About
We are all unique and complex, it's natural that a yoga session should be as well. The yoga sessions and classes are holistic and reflect the individual needs of the students. We have the ability to be our own best teacher, we simply need the right experience to connect us with the ability to create an optimal state of our own personal health and well being.
I encourage my clients and students to find their own approach to practice, I encourage them to be empowered and to feel the positive benefits of yoga practice and lifestyle. Giving care and attention to a healthy body, mind and spirit.
In my yoga teaching, I provide an informed yoga class that gives the student a yoga experience that suits their personal goals and needs. I use my personal experience and training to teach a range of yoga practices and lifestyle techniques people can use to improve health and wellness.
I am a practitioner of yoga with over 20 years of experience in teaching and yoga practice, I share the benefits of that lifestyle with my students. The classes are fun and accessible, you don't need to be flexible or have yoga experience.
Yoga therapy and private sessions are where you can come to a session that is designed for you and the goals you have for your own personal health.
