Yvette

My yoga journey began many many years ago when I rolled out my mat for the first time in an Ashtanga class.



Ashtanga is still my 'go to' practice. That first experience created the start of a journey that still continues today. I am continually inspired and mesmerised by the transformative and supportive nature of Yoga and Holistic therapies. 


I now offer a range of yoga styles and mindfulness practices in class, private and corporate environment

Bronte


"Movement Facilitator | Yoga, Somatics & Sound Healing


Certified in Hatha, Vinyasa, and Nada (Sound) Yoga, and with further training in Somatic Tantra, Embodied Yin, and Somatic Nidra, I guide practices that honour the whole self - blending mindful movement, breathwork, sound healing, and somatic awareness.


My classes are invitations to move intuitively, rest deeply, and reconnect with your body’s natural rhythms. Whether you're seeking strength, softness, or stillness, you'll find a supportive space where all bodies and levels are welcome, and variations are always offered to meet you where you are.


Sound plays a central role in my offerings, through immersive soundscapes and healing instruments, designed to support deep rest, and nervous system regulation. There is always a carefully held soundscape to carry the space and time - gently guiding you through each phase of the class, from grounding to integration.


Inspired by the grounding power of nature, my teaching is always evolving as I continue to explore new movement disciplines and healing modalities.


Come as you are - see which class resonates, and I’ll see you on the mat!"


Angela

I am a qualified Holistic Sound Therapist and have a strong interest in studying energy work also using my intuition.


I was drawn to well-being after having an undiagnosed injury for 4 years. It supported me along my healing journey and kept my hope and optimism going.


This is why I was drawn to sound and using it to help restore healthy vibrations within the body.


I also like to use my intuitive side with the instruments too.

Christin

Originally from Germany I have lived in England since 2012 and now settled in Greater Manchester.


I am a passionate mother of one son. I started my journey to become a qualified lifecoach in 2018 after going through a challenging time in my personal life and found it difficult to get the help that I really needed from my GP. During my course to become a life coach I found my passion in working with the subconscious mind and so trained to become an NLP practitioner and clinical hypnotherapist. I have since helped clients discover their values, needs and goals in life and guide them on their journeys to reach their full potentials, break unhealthy habits and generally start living calmer, peaceful and happier lives.


I offer my clients tailored 121 therapy sessions and run a monthly group session with a different focus each month at the studio.

Specialising in pre & postnatal exercise, and having had her own little girl, Samantha loves to help share the benefits of exercise, breath work & meditation with other mamas too! 


She always brings relaxed vibes and an uplifting positive energy to all of her sessions. She totally understands that all our bodies are different, so gives different levels to choose from. For those who want more…. She is famous for throwing in a “Cheeky Challenge”


All Samantha’s classes are about you enjoying yourself whilst keeping your body & mind healthy.

 

You will often hear her say “Keep breathing & keep smiling”! 

Katia

I’m Katia, also known as KosmikFlow. My journey into Kundalini Yoga began during my time as an intensive care nurse, particularly during the challenges of the pandemic. The immense stress I faced led me to explore various types of yoga, but it was Kundalini Yoga that truly resonated with me on a profound level. This ancient practice, which connects pranayama (breath), asana (posture), mudra (hand gestures), and meditation, helped me navigate a very dark period in my life. It not only helped me manage stress but also guided me towards understanding myself more deeply and exploring the greater meaning of life—a journey that continues to unfold.


Driven by a deep desire to immerse myself in this transformative practice, I travelled to India to complete my training in the traditional way, right where Kundalini Yoga originated. As a nurse, my vocation has always been to help others, and now, as I transition from conventional medicine to a more holistic approach, I’m passionate about sharing the healing power of Kundalini Yoga. I’m also training as a hypnotherapist, strongly believing in the connection between mind and body. My teaching style goes beyond simple asanas, focusing on a practice that integrates breath, movement, and meditation to help you flow in rhythm with nature and the universe. Yoga is for everyone, and my mission is to help you rediscover yourself, heal, and live in harmony with the natural and universal flow.

Tim

I have been practicing yoga for around 15 years, my journey started as the result of a serious road accident where I severely injured my back and spine. After months of physiotherapy it was recommended that I start Pilates and basic yoga in order to aid my recovery in the long term.

 

I started off learning the Iyenga yoga method and taking part in basic Vinyasa classes before being drawn to the Ashtanga style. 

 

I am particularly focused on working with the breath and bandhas, thus making dynamic classes as ‘light’ and ‘floaty’ as possible, using yoga to defy gravity in an intuitive and safe way by mixing in calisthenics body weight control - the more effortless and controlled your practice is, the more relaxing and meditative it can be, and the less chance that you will develop an injury. 

 

On the other hand, there is nothing more invigorating than practicing backbends, arm balances and handstands in a playful and childlike way… especially at the beach! I have had many yoga teachers over the years and I do not believe that any one person is ‘the’ expert or ‘guru’. 

 

Every single yoga teacher, Pilates instructor or fitness trainer that you meet can give you new inspiration, knowledge, techniques and ideas that you can bring in to your physical practice, leading you to the realisation that YOU are your own teacher and everyone else is just there to guide you along the way and share their unique expertise, specialisms and experience. 

 

I believe that self practice alongside regular led group classes is the ultimate way of improving your own personal yoga experience and achieving your fitness and wellbeing goals.

Jenna

I first started practising yoga 12 years ago, it was my way of finding some calm after a busy week teaching in the classroom! I loved being guided in this ancient practice and the time and space it gave me to connect to myself and others.

 

In 2023 I went on a week-long yoga retreat, it was during this time that I experienced the benefit of a daily practice - I felt more present than ever before! This led me to embark on my journey to becoming a yoga teacher. I studied over the course of a year with Evolve Yoga Training, completing my 200 hours in December 2024. I learnt so much during this year, in particular the power of the breath to down regulate our nervous systems, helping us to shift our mood, to feel calmer and safer in our bodies.

 

My own practice has evolved over the years and now generally takes a much slower pace. It leaves me feeling grounded, more at ease in my mind and body and enables me to face the outer world with a calm, more present state of being.


My teaching approach is very breath focused, moving through postures with the breath to open the body, whilst finding strength and stability. I also love the unity that yoga brings to both ourselves and with others. I believe in building communities rooted in love and support and therefore aim to provide a space which feels nourishing and supportive where my students leave a class feeling lighter, more grounded, and connected to themselves and in turn, others.

 

New to yoga, not practised in a while, or a regular on the mat - all are welcome here

Steve

My journey into yoga began as a teenager after I picked up a book that was left on a table at home. Curiosity led me to give it a go and I discovered a totally different world from the one I was growing up in. After discovering a copy of ‘The Meditators Handbook’ (Fontana, 1992), I began an exploration of meditation practices. With Yoga as the springboard, I experimented with Kung Fu, Chan Style Tai Chi, and hard-core endurance Zen Buddhist meditation practices. I haven’t always followed the best path, and my 20s and 30s were all about pushing myself to my physical and mental limits which just led to burnout and injuries.  These days I am much kinder on my body and mind, and I have returned full circle to Yoga to restore balance.


What captivates me most about yoga is its holistic nature – an art that seamlessly weaves together movement, breath, and mindfulness. Being hyperactive by nature, it allows me to find stillness in movement. Through this practice, I've come to appreciate yoga as a powerful vehicle for enhancing mobility, building strength, and calming an unruly mind. As I move into my 50th decade, I see more than ever the benefits yoga can bring to improving our quality of life as we age. It’s never too late to start yoga! 


As well as building towards peak postures I like to include breathwork and finish with deep relaxation. My classes are practical and adapted to the needs of all levels of physical ability - yoga is not just for the young and bendy! Join me in embracing yoga as a tool for self-discovery and well-being, making it an integral part of your own journey towards a balanced and healthy life.

Judy

My yoga journey began a few years ago with classes at my local gym. I was immediately drawn to the sense of serenity the practice brought into my life. When I later joined Yoga Sangha as a student, I was deeply inspired by the nurturing environment of the shala and the wisdom of its teachers. It was here that I discovered a passion for Yoga, practising and learning under the guidance of Yvette and Tim and I am overjoyed that I can carry on learning in this inclusive community.

 

My path eventually led me to complete a 200-hour teacher training in both Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga. I’m particularly drawn to the creative and dynamic flow of Vinyasa, and how it can be adapted to meet the unique energy needs of each class. Whether you're seeking an energising practice or something more grounding, I aim to create space for this and meet my class where they are.

 

Yoga has had a profoundly positive impact on my body, mind, and spirit. It has helped me release tension, build strength, and completely alleviate the back pain I once experienced from long hours at a desk. Beyond the physical benefits, yoga cultivates a sense of inner calm and focus, offering a welcome refuge from the business of everyday life.

 

As it says in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra 1.2: yogas chitta vritti nirodha. This is translated by some people as, “yoga is the stilling or controlling of the fluctuations of the mind.” My hope is to offer students a space where they can connect to the present moment, find stillness and reconnect with themselves.

 

I design my classes to be inclusive and welcoming, offering variations and modifications so that everyone feels comfortable and supported. With a background in secondary school teaching, I deeply understand that each practitioner arrives on the mat with their own unique experiences and abilities. It’s my joy to welcome individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and levels to practice together in an environment of respect and compassion.

 

I look forward to holding space for you on the mat and I hope our paths cross soon.

Lucy

Hi, I’m Lucy. I came to my first yoga class over 20 years ago. Regular practice helps me to balance my mind and gives me an accepting and positive outlook on life. I’ve practised with many wonderful teachers and have been influenced by them all. I trained to teach yoga because I wanted other people to share the joy of yoga practice and the benefits that it brings. I completed my 200 hours teacher training with Evolve Yoga training and completed 40 hours Breathwork & Pranayama training in2024.I have practiced many different styles including Iyengar, Rocket, Yin, Vinyasa Flow, and Hot Bikram-style yoga.


The classes that I teach are inspired by the Ashtanga series, but I teach slow movements with an emphasis on linking movement with the breath. The pace is gentle, offering modifications and props where appropriate, with a focus on balancing the body and mind. My classes are suitable for adults of all ages, and beginners are always very welcome. I am passionate about yoga and approach my teaching with patience, clarity and calmness.
