Mandy first discovered Yoga in 1998, after browsing through a book shop and buying a book by Richard Hittleman. The book inspired her to develop a practice and she was soon hooked!  She went on to find a teacher and, during numerous moves in her life, her Yoga practice remained.

 

Mandy began teaching in 2005 whilst studying for her British Wheel of Yoga teaching Diploma (www.bwy.org.uk), which she completed in January 2007.  Her classes place emphasis on linking breath with movement - enabling the mind to become focussed and the body strong and supple.  As awareness of the body and mind develop, true yoga can begin.

 

Her approach has many influences, which are constantly evolving, and she regularly attends additional training and workshops with some of the world's most respected teachers including Mark Whitwell, Sarah Powers and Shiva Rea.

 

In June 2007, Mandy attended a ten-day teachers' immersion in Skyros, Greece with Shiva Rea, enriching her knowledge of prana vinyasa flow (www.shivarea.com). 

Mandy has also completed Ante-Natal Yoga training with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli (www.sitaram.org) and offers pregnancy yoga and accepts pregnant students into some of her general classes.
