Ashtanga Yoga Bristol

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is a beautiful dynamic practice, which is brilliant for beginners with no previous yoga experience. Those who already have some knowledge of yoga will find many familiarities in this 'Mysore style' practice where the main difference is the focus on developing a self practice within a group situation. Come and start Friday with an early morning practice to wake up the body and still the mind. All levels welcomed. NOW BOOKING: 8 week course from Friday 8th May More info.

I originally trained in dance. This interest in movement of the body and the effect on mind and well being, has been like a thread running through my life - leading me into an intense period of Yoga study. I then completed a 3 year British Wheel of Yoga training in London with Swami Dayamurti an inspirational teacher whose roots are in the Satyananda tradition. I discovered Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga when I attended a workshop with Dena Kingsberg at The Life Centre in London around 1999.

I experienced this style of yoga as incredibly powerful - such an energising yet calming effect on mind and body. Shortly afterwards I met John Scott who has been an amazing source of inspiration ever since. I was also very fortunate to attend workshops with Patthabbi Jois when he visited London and be a part of the incredible grpup experience of being taught by the direct Guru. I went on to complete teacher training with John and Lucy Scott in New Zealand.
