YOGA
Welcome! My name is Mima, and i am a yoga teacher!
I offer 1 to 1 or private Yoga classes as well as a couple of weekly classes at Eppleby village hall.
In 2024 I proudly completed my first yoga teacher training in the oldest Yoga school in Sri Lanka. Guided by experienced teachers from all over the world. I specialised in Synergy Yoga. This is a yoga practice which fuses Iyungars Hatha principles and asanas with modern adaptations based on physiotherapy.

I chose this style of yoga for my first teacher training because I am hyper-mobile and i am aware that many very traditional schools push students into ‘impressive’ contortionist positions rather than focusing on what truly does our bodies good. I prefer to see yoga as my physical and mental medicine rather than something I can perform. I instil this philosophy in all my classes.
I am interested in exploring the limits of my body, mind and spirituality and further studying in India one day, but with this safe foundation of safe practice as my base and home in the yoga world.
I offer classes to experienced and beginner yogis, whether you want workshops on specific poses, 1.5 hour guided classes including deep meditation, or a classic vinyasa morning boost; I can adapt to your needs online or in person.
I am also extremley intersted in the ancient origns of yoga. I am often re-reading the Bhagavad Gita and anything i can get my hands on about bringing yoga into our daily lives. Please feel free to have a chat about this with me after class if you too are intersted in how yoga can also improve your life away from the mat.
