February Beginners Workshop

My Beginners Workshop is on at Glow Yoga this Saturday, 16th February! It’s never too late to start learning or simply take it back a step and get back to basics, you never stop learning and you never stop benefiting from going back to the beginning! Do join me for this lovely, warm 2 hour workshop!

Happy Yogaversary

Dear Yoga,Meditation at Tintagel, Cornwall.

We’ve been together now for 15 years. We’ve had our ups and downs, our highs and our lows but no matter what, we’ve always been there for each other. Thank you for constantly accepting me for who I am, loving me unconditionally no matter what I look like and what mood I’m in, taking care of me when I am sick and embracing me when I am full of energy. Thank you for never turning your back on me when I was ready to walk away from you and thank you for welcoming me back without question when I came back to you. Thank you for never knowing all the answers and being able to admit when that is the case, and thank you for teaching me to embrace the same. But mostly, thank you for helping to shape me both mentally and physically into the person I am today, who knows where I’d be without you. I’m sure it’s never going to be entirely plain sailing but I’ve learnt to accept that and I know you have to. So here’s to the next 15 years, whatever it throws our way I know that together we can find a way to get through it with integrity, laughter and positivity.

Forever yours,
Cx

Oh what a beautiful morning!

Every Thursday I teach a morning class at Glow Yoga. This morning, when my alarm went off, I was enjoying the most wonderfully sound sleep. The alarm therefore was not particularly welcome, but being a creature of habit (and knowing that I can’t just leave my yoga students lying on a mat teacher-free!) I crawled out of bed and begun my Thursday morning routine. Continue reading

I’ll glow if you glow!

As a teacher with a big respect and fascination for the body (plus a background in Sports Therapy), I am fussy.  Way too fussy on how yoga “should” be taught.  It’s not that I know more than everybody else, or that my ways are necessarily correct.  I just know what I think and why I think it and if I’m teaching something in a certain way then there is usually a reason for it.  Likewise if I feel I don’t have a reason or the knowledge I think I should have on a pose or a posture, then generally speaking, I won’t teach it.  Like I said, fussy!

Hey y’all!

As some of you may have noticed I took a little break from my writing duties just recently, having completed a full Yoga for Sport series for Yoga Magazine throughout 2010.  I am now gradually re-introducing some writing to my life as I missed it so much!  You can read my next article in the July issue, out on the 29th June which will be highlighting all the best yoga festivals in the UK and beyond.  However I’m also feeling rather proud and very excited that I’ve been asked to write my first feature article for the US version of the magazine too!  My first article ever to be printed in the states will be in the August issue which is out on the 19th July!

Happy reading and love & light for an Easter break full of sunshine… and yoga!
