Hello, I'm Hannah

 Originally from Yorkshire and a people person to my core, after coming to movement  through contemporary dance as a teenager, I then found yoga which helped me hugely in managing the anxiety that often comes during these years. After reconnecting with the practice in my adult life in 2019 I’ve found it to be an invaluable tool for balance, grounding and connection whilst living in London.

 

After craving a new challenge, I trained on the Kindred School of Yoga’s Yoga Alliance certified 200 hour Vinyasa yoga teacher training course led by Katerina Rayburn and Helen Russell-Clark. The Kindred yoga training programme has a strong focus on inclusivity and appreciation of yoga lineage with modules covering yoga humanities & ethics, anatomy and physiology, pranayama, meditation, pregnancy and size inclusive practice. I have subsequently also completed 50 hour training in Yin & the Energy Body with The Yoga People. Throughout my development I have been especially drawn to and inspired by the integral philosophical and psychological teachings woven through the practice. I draw on this frequently to help navigate every day life and value helping others do the same. 

 

I passionately believe that yoga is for every body and that joy and self acceptance can be found through consistent practice. I create open and friendly classes accompanied by mood boosting playlist, interweaving strength and stability work. I use the breath as a core element of the practice, helping students connect with themselves throughout. I ensure that variations of poses are incorporated so the practice can be accessed by all, giving gentle offerings of breathing techniques that can be used on and off the mat.

 

I have lived in London for 12 years working in management within the Dance, Theatre & Events industries.​
