About Us

Catherine’s welcoming and inclusive Hatha Yoga classes are designed for real people, helping you to improve the way you feel whilst providing you with a yoga practice and understanding that will allow you to adapt better to the uncertainties of everyday life, all, in a non-competitive, safe environment.

Catherine has been practising yoga for over 13 years and has enjoyed a few years teaching yoga to school children. Inspired to take her practice further and gain more knowledge, she completed her 200-hour Teacher Training qualification and is registered with the Yoga Alliance International (YAI). She feels yoga, in many ways, changes lives and really believes that the very first yoga class she attended was the beginning of her journey to becoming her most authentic self.

Catherine hopes to bring to her Hatha yoga classes, the very things she has always loved about practicing yoga: the feeling of freedom and inner calm, enabling her to just be. Focusing on the physical aspect of the postures whilst connecting with the breath, she wants to give students the opportunity to feel physically and mentally better, in a safe space. Catherine teaches a combination of yoga postures, often in sequences, helping you to strengthen the body, and, breathing techniques giving you the ability to breathe deeper and calm the mind, in equal measure. You will leave the class with a clearer prospective, feeling more energized and open.

Props are available for every student in every class and Catherine gives many options and alternatives for each posture, encouraging each student to use their own intuition, enabling you to enjoy your own yoga journey, with no judgement.

Catherine’s classes are inclusive of all and especially suited to beginners and intermediates.

Chair Yoga classes are suited for people who want to move their bodies in a safe way using the stability of a chair, these people may be working through injury/ailment or perhaps have reduced mobility.
