Yoga; it’s a port in a storm, a quiet place within. It’s seeing more clearly, understanding more fully, moving more freely and breathing more easily.
I believe yoga should be accessible to all and that’s the way I teach.

It seems that more and more of our lives are being spent in front of a screen of some sort, whether that be doing the weekly grocery shop online, seeing family and friends via FaceTime or talking to staff in the… Continue reading Taking Yoga Off-Screen
The Yama-s and our Relationship with the Environment

I have found Mandy’s sessions very helpful in making me more self-aware and I find I’m trying to live more ‘in the moment’.

I find that Mandy’s yoga class is so good for bringing yourself back to yourself.
The importance of breathing, the life-force that we take for granted, is brought to our attention as we do the yoga practice, which I find very beneficial.

Mandy adapts the class to what the class needs, perhaps more energising sometimes or more relaxing at other times. I love the breathing or chanting at the end of the class, it is an opportunity to try things that you may not in other classes.
