About the Business
I began teaching yoga in 1997 - in York initially. Harrogate Yoga was founded a couple of years later when I moved to Harrogate. But my journey towards becoming a yoga teacher and Somatic Movement Educator, began many years previously.
This approach was founded and developed over many years by Bonnie-Bainbridge Cohen. In the late nineties, I realised from reading some articles in Yoga Journal that Donna Farhi was also inspired by Bonnie's work. Donna was not well known in Europe back then - her seminal book - ‘Yoga, Mind, Body, Spirit' - was still to be published. So it was a big leap of faith for me to go and study with her in Vancouver, but my gut feelings to do so proved correct, she has had a profound influence on my teaching. I gained my IBMT Diploma in 2007 and greatly value all that I learned from my teacher - Linda Hartley.
Through embodying these principles, students develop an inner reference for alignment and learn to trust their own instinctive reactions and feelings.
