Almon
I was drawn to yoga whilst working as a busy professional amid the freneticism of London life. My yoga practice has been a natural anchor through many of life’s inevitable ups and downs.
I aim to create a nurturing space, focusing on breath-based yoga movement, safe alignment and mindfulness. I believe in moving slowly to the rhythm of the breath as a way of building strength, balance and flexibility, in both body and mind.
In particular, I found yoga postures and breathing techniques to be a great help during pregnancy and the early days of being a mum to my sons, who are also yoga enthusiasts themselves!
I teach Flow, Pregnancy, Postnatal and Baby Yoga.

‘What can I do to take better care of myself?’This session will give you a range of tools to help you look after your own wellbeing. We will start with a guided reflection on how we are feeling physically, emotionally and mentally, in order to set an intention for our practice.Once we have ‘checked in’ we will explore a range of practices to meet our needs, such as self-massage, developing a steady rhythm of breath, a flowing practice of physical postures, mindful meditation and restorative postures for deep relaxation.You will leave the session with ideas on how to put these tools into use as part of your yoga practice whether it is new or established. Practical tips on alternatives to yoga props that you can gather from your own home will be provided.This class is suitable for everyone, whether you’re an experienced practitioner or new to yoga. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.Styles
Flow Yoga
I believe in moving slowly to the rhythm of the breath as a way of building strength, balance and flexibility, in both body and mind. This practice allows for focus on alignment and mindful movement between postures.
I have a regular Flow Yoga practice and change my focus from gentle to challenging depending on my emotional and physical needs.
Pregnancy Yoga
Having experienced the benefits of Pregnancy Yoga personally, I believe the practice enables soon-to-be Mamas to stay positive in body and mind during an exciting and often uncertain time.
My classes focus on breathing and relaxation techniques, as well as postures which strengthen and stretch the body. Enabling Mamas-to-be to maintain or gain fitness, while reducing anxiety in preparation for labour and motherhood.
Postnatal with Baby Yoga
My Postnatal with Baba Yoga classes are a special time set aside for Mamas and babas to focus on the benefits of touch, movement and relaxation. Specialist Postnatal Yoga sequencing will help tone and strengthen Mamas muscles, improve posture and combat fatigue.
For babas there will be playful movement, songs and gentle massage to promote sleep, digestion and overall healthy development.
Corporate
The Inner Axis system, a style of yoga developed by my teacher Max Strom, has been specifically developed as a way of taking yoga and mindfulness into workspaces. The practice incorporates breath based yoga movement and mindfulness, and focuses directly on reducing stress, anxiety and sleeplessness.
I teach lessons that will suit different corporate environments, be it an hour post work class in yoga gear or a 20 minute lunchtime session in office wear. The classes focus on using breath initiated movement to help professionals to feel better and work smarter.
