Lynette

Lynette is an experienced yoga and meditation teacher and space holder. Skilled at creating powerful, healing spaces wherever her voice is heard. Known for her intelligent, consciousness in motion yoga classes and action on and off the mat. Vinyasa practices with philosophy, poetry, heart, laughter en route to profound realisation, poignant revelation, occasional tears and frequent experiences of astonishment and awe toward this miraculous existence. Yin and restorative teachings that lead you to internal experiences of stillness and deep divine rest, collective care , healing and ritual.

After working corporately at a senior level for over 15 years, the threat of redundancy and unfair work practices in 2009, Lynette renewed her relationship with yoga and the healing arts to find refuge in something which wouldn’t make her feel inferior, exposed or disempowered.

And so it began meditation, studying asana, spiritual texts, daily yoga practice, self care books, sun, moon and seasonal rituals before embarking on her first of 200 hour Hatha Raja Yoga teacher training in 2011. What Lynette did not realise is that she was laying the foundation for her life dedicated to teaching yoga, focusing on awakening students’ inner-teacher; connecting them with their innate wisdom, strength, resilience and fortitude. While helping them live boldly with authenticity, passion, humour and joy and reminds seekers of the astonishing nature of this incredible existence and the extraordinary beauty of one’s exquisite human body. Further training included, Advanced Ashtanga Vinyasa, Practices of Freedom & Spiritual Well-being, Conscious Community Activism, Yin Yoga, Energy 4 Life Wellness Coach, Women’s Circle Facilitator, Essential Oils for Well-being and Restorative Yoga.

Lynette is committed to achieving true wellness by finding balance and creating inclusive spaces for everyone. Everyone has the right to be well. Lynette believes that wellness spaces should be accessible, diverse, inclusive and equitable. Everyone has the right to belong and incorporate our intersectionalities and individual collective trauma.

Lynette continues to teach workshops, host retreats, facilitate circles for women, and teacher trainings nationally and internationally she is an Energy 4 Life Coach, Vice Chair of The Yoga Teachers Union UK and a much loved member of The Middle Path Movement teaching tribe.

Her cheerful demeanour, positive vibrations and contagious optimism empower students, peers and colleagues to practice with enthusiasm, while her detailed instruction, poetic and soulful language create a safe space for everyone to explore the landscapes of their body, mind and soul.

Lynette will be teaching in April

Alina

Alina began her journey to yoga teaching with the year-long 200-hour Ashtanga-Vinyasa teacher training she completed with Jonathan Francis Thompson at Yoga London. This, combined with her study into psychology, led her to find comfort in yoga by learning to live in the present moment with more patience and humility.

She brings these teachings, and her background in traditional Ashtanga Yoga, to inspire her students of all levels to experience therapeutic and mindful classes, whilst challenging each of them individually.

Alina uses a holistic practice to encourage cleansing and toning of the body, mind and senses. She concentrates on breathing exercises to achieve 3-dimensional yogic breath, creating longer breathing cycles to help her students achieve a more meditative state in their yoga practice.

Alina’s personal practice builds upon combining physical yoga self-practice together with nurturing and restorative yoga sessions and Reiki meditation. Additionally, Alina sustains a plant-based diet, encouraging a broad approach to healing the body and mind as well as caring for the living world.

She believes the most important lesson in yoga is allowing yourself the time your practice needs to mature and for the healing process to work.

Alina’s public classes consist of a mixture of Alignment Vinyasa, Slow Flow and Yin. She provides clear and effective alignment cues to help her students build up their strength and confidence in understanding the major yoga postures.
