Welcome to Healing with Yoga where I invite you to join me on a transformative journey through Somatic Yoga and Meditation,
I have been teaching yoga for 30 years and my own healing with yoga has inspired my desire to teach and share this gentle practice. I offer classes that go deeply into somatic and exploratory practices. My approach will help you take care of your health, age gracefully and foster an enriching sense of self and overall well-being. Somatic Yoga is accessible to both beginners and those with more experience. This is Yoga that works deeply and gently, bringing you home to yourself.
Healing With Yoga
Somatic Yoga and Mindfulness
If you are looking for a sensitive, somatic approach that helps you age gracefully, feel energised and nurtured, and eases out tension and stress then this approach will meet your needs.
Moving with awareness of sensation whilst listening to your body as you stretch and breathe takes you into and through your habitual tension and stress, transforming the way you experience and feel in your body and mind. This is a practice that enriches your sense of being and helps forge a deeper connection with your self and with life.
My teaching is clear, accessible and good humoured. I respond to the needs as they arise in the session, and I guide you to experience your natural inner peace. I offer modifications when needed and so if you think you are too stiff or the wrong shape to do yoga, think again!
Do you struggle with -
- stiffness, aches and pains that cramp your natural movement and well-being
- bad posture
- emotional and mental tension
- overwhelm and being stuck in a flight, fight or freeze response
- a loss of inner space
- health conditions
- recuperation after illness
- hormone imbalance
What Somatic Yoga can do for you -
These Yoga and Mindfulness classes offer a safe, nurturing space for you to enjoy being in your body, whether it is rediscovering life in your little toe, or a general sense of feeling more present and alive. Somatic Yoga emphasises your internal experience rather than attempting to do it ‘right’. So the outer form is less important than the sensory experience. This approach guides you to have a deeper awareness and connection to yourself and empowers you to trust your body.
Somatic Yoga combines fluid floor work, energy medicine and Yoga asana. Attention is given to how you stand, breathe and how you feel. Through balancing your posture and gentle deep movement, aches and pains are eased and forgotten corners embraced. This yoga will restore your fluidity of movement, spaciousness and natural joy. Yoga helps you age youthfully, it gives support through illness or convalescence, relieves overwhelm from caring for others or undoes the habit of being stuck in flight and fight stress response. These classes will provide a pool of resources for you to feel calm, energised and emotionally grounded.
What Somatic Yoga offers -
I offer 1-1 Therapeutic Yoga sessions in Crouch End, N8. These are useful for those who need or want individual tuition. General classes in both Yoga and Meditation are held on Zoom and in-person and are located in Muswell Hill, N10 and Crouch End. I run themed workshops both in Bounds Green and Crouch End. I am currently training as a Yoga Therapist with Yoga United. Yoga Therapy coming soon!
