James and Tania tailor their classes so they are suitable for clients of all ages and abilities. Please feel free to get in touch to discuss your requirements.

You can also see some of our latest videos on our new Youtube Channel to get a feel for our teaching style.

I started practicing Iyengar Yoga over 20 years ago whilst studying and found that it had a profound effect on my ability to concentrate. My father passed away during my last year in university and  yoga helped me deal with grief. Losing someone so close at a young age taught me the value of living for the moment and following your dreams.

I have continued practicing a variety of styles of yoga including Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Power Yoga, Kundalini, Satyananda and Yin Yoga.

After practicing for over 13 years I felt a yearning to share my knowledge and I took a break from work to take an International Yoga Alliance accredited 200 hour course in Bali. This was a transformative journey. I also spent a month doing seva (volunteering) at a Satyananda Yoga Ashram and also undertook a 10 day vipassana (silent meditation) course, thereby deepening my understanding of yogic lifestyles and meditation practices. Since starting teaching I have completed my Birthlight pregnancy yoga teacher training. In 2013 I undertook a 500 hour International Yoga Alliance accredited teacher training with Emil Wendel and Julie Martin in India and I returned again in 2016 to Rishikesh where I taught meditation on a teacher training course.

I am very interested in bringing yoga to wider audiences and I have adapted yoga practices for people living with dementia, run a research project on this and just published the first book on this subject.
