Make Time for Yourself
Yoga to connect with your body and calm your mind
Yoga For Life
The practice of yoga teaches us about ourselves, who we are at our core and how we choose to function in the world.
Yoga guides us to manage life with grace and balance.
I started teaching yoga 20 years ago when I was going through a big change in my life. Yoga became the sanctuary I was desperately seeking at the time. It gave me the space I needed to rediscover myself and develop an inner peace that has never left me.
I chose to study with the Ruth White School of Yoga style of yoga because it emphasises a stronger discipline on physical alignment. It can be said that the mind can be trained by the body, if you train the body, the mind will follow.
For a huge portion of our life, we are juggling between work and life to find a happy balance. We need to manage our time, energy and resources carefully so we do not lose our balance.
Yoga gives us the physical and mental capacity to prioritise what is most important right now in our life and choose in favour of that. Yoga gives us strength, stamina and flexibility, mentally and physically. It teaches us to be strong patient, flexible and adaptable as we try to juggle our family, friends, work, finances and health.
Yoga is a transformational life tool.
“Yoga does not just change the way we see things, it transforms the person who sees.”
~ B.K.S. Iyengar ~

About me, Suzy
I began my own personal yoga journey in 2002 and commenced a 500 hour, yoga training course with Ruth White. The 500 Hour Yoga Teaching Diploma Certificate was an intense two year training programme, in Cheam, Surrey. We spent many long weekends on 4 day retreats where we experienced teaching from many different expert teachers including Anatomy and Physiology, Philosophy, Nutrition, Ayurvedic Medicine, Mindfulness and even a Fire Walk in Edinburgh.
Ruth White was greatly influenced by BKS Iyengar after he helped her recover from a chronic back problem during his visit in London in the 1960s. Inspired by his teaching, she travelled to Poona, India, and was later given a senior teaching certificate. Her teaching style was based on Iyengar’s strong discipline for paying attention to detail and alignment of the body in every posture.

I offer one-to-one sessions of yoga, which are mainly held on zoom but if possible, face to face is also an option. Single sessions are £75 for 60 minutes.
Whether you’re a complete beginner looking to learn the basics and build confidence in yourself or an experienced practitioner looking to to refine your technique and achieve specific health and fitness goals, this tailored approach will help you make effective progression.
One-to-one private sessions are hugely beneficial if you :
- are looking for a tailored practice that addresses your specific needs
- have any specific health concerns, injuries, or chronic conditions
- are looking to achieve a deeper sense of calm and reduce stress
- initially feel self-conscious in a group setting
- want to build your confidence with the postures and create a personal schedule
What to expect during your session
One of the key benefits of private sessions is that it offers flexibility in timing; you can choose sessions each week that work with your weekly schedule, without the constraints of a rigid timetable.
Following the completion of a short health questionnaire, to find out about your health history and your goals and preferences, we will arrange an initial consultation. Following that, each 60 minute session will incorporate a blend of lying down, standing and sitting postures, inversions, if this is part of your own practice, and some breathing, meditation and relaxation. Everything is tailored to your individual needs and you will work completely at your own pace and personal ability.

Testimonials
I attended classes with Suzy, after a long day at work!! I am so impressed with her personal attention, calmness and quality of tailored programme that just after few classes, I started feeling a lot better in my self. She adds a holistic approach and makes the whole journey very smooth. I highly recommend her as a person, as a coach and as a yogi. Her vast knowledge of yoga poses with rational and medical reasoning is amazing.

Suzy offers sessions that are thoughtful and carefully planned. She teaches from a sound knowledge base and understanding of core yoga philosophy, mind and body. Her attention to the detail of practice seems to maximise the benefits of every posture, and her encouraging and supportive approach means I leave sessions grounded and energised, with a sense of emotional, physical and spiritual development. Highly recommended !
