A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME

Me short hair_edited.jpg

1968 MONKEY, VATA DOSHA

I have always been fascinated in other cultures and being of mixed heritage (French, English, Portugese and Indian) my path unfolded onto this anthropological /spiritual journey, bound up in a search for identity and belonging and it is in this space I find myself at home.

 

When I started yoga I discovered that the prevailing representation of this discipline is that of slim, bendy, lycra-clad young women positioned in elaborate poses. However, this depiction tells only part of a 5000+ year story.  Yoga is, actually a science of the mind, open to everyone and what you learn on the mat is for you to take off the mat into life.  It's sister science, ayurveda is even less well known, let alone know what a wonderful practice it is - furthermore it is frequently seen as being a bit 'out there'. However, Western science is catching on to these ancient sciences and there is much research and evidence to support its efficacy. I hope to bring these two sciences  to you in a way you understand, in a caring, warm environment where no question is too daft.

 

AND HOW I CAN HELP YOU....

Being an anthropologist, I am fascinated by people and to what makes us tick. I'm not just interested in the bright bubbly side but also look to those darker moments which, once illuminated, help us to connect with each other. When creating bespoke yoga or ayurvedic programmes I therefore delve a little to find out a bit about you and your lifestyle.

 

Understanding your personality and preferences or dislikes helps me to plan a session with you in mind.  Additionally, the more of a connection you can make between your own mind, body and spirit, the greater enjoyment and progress you can make along your path, I am here just to guide you. So, whether it be working towards better sleep, improved nutrition, focusing on your tight hamstrings or wanting to learn how to do a headstand, practice backbends or simply sitting quietly in meditation, I will do my best to help you in your journey.

Kindest wishes Gina
