The YTS has myself (Meg) as the teacher for most of the scheduled classes as I created the space for the opportunity to share my classes. I also have guest teachers with an intention to open the space to more styles & teachers in the upcoming months.

Teacher Training

I am a 200hr YTT Certified teacher in Vinyasa, Ashtanga & Yin. I did my training in September 2021 in the south of Spain at Wild Warrior Yoga. Taught by Morwenna, Lascel & Emily, some of the loveliest, passionate & energetic people I have met. Morwenna glided us through Vinyasa traditions, creative sequencing alongside helping to introduce & decipher the wonderfully complex Yoga Philosophy teachings. Lascel instilled in us the commandments of Ashtanga & helped us to dissect  anatomy & its relationship to yoga. I was introduced to Yin by Emily, a style I didn’t fully appreciate initially however through more study & practice I have come to really appreciate this.

Teaching Experience

My  experience hadsbeen for almost 3 years now teaching in studios, surf camps & retreats.

I returned home from my YTT to join Mysore practice at my local studio Yoga at the reach where I met Nicola. A stunningly efficient & certified Ashtanga teacher. I was grateful to join further classes where we explored deeper the teachings of Patangali & ways in which to help align & adjust students. Joining the timetable here to cover Ashtanga Half Primary Led classes, Vinyasa & Yin style classes. I left my home town to begin teaching Yin at retreats in Tenerife before finding myself in Morocco teaching at various surf camps & at my space. My learning continues daily with each class I prepare & every student is different which brings new lessons. 

Style

I prepare classes with a mix of movements with options to challenge yourself. I love to share alignment & guidance on the traditional teachings however it is more important for me to see you are listening to your body & that there is more focus on the feeling of the stretch than the shape. I also encourage a lot of observance & reflection within the class to allow you time to understand your body’s capabilities, any limitations & any sensations. The purpose of all my classes is to practice being present & nourish the body through mindful movements whilst feeling comfortable to completely let go & have fun with it. I also like to allow time where possible after the class to reflect on the class, ask any questuons or maybe enjoy a mindful chat with a cup of tea 🙂

Classes 

There are a lot of classes available based around my experience with Ashtanga, Vinyasa & Yin. Each have different aims & benefits. The space allows for up to 5 yogis to practice which offers more guidance & support throughout. For Yoga we typically begin with techniques to become precent, deepening our focus with Mindfulness & Pranayama (breathing techniques). I then guide a sequence of movements & Asanas (postures) finally closing the class in relaxation/meditation.
