Yoga Teachers
in Greater Manchester

We sit comfortably, preferably in the Vajra Posture or crossed legged positions on a suitable cushioned mat. We join our hands placing the right hand on top of the left hand with the tip of the thumbs lightly touching each other. We keep our belly relaxed, our spine straight with the crown of the head extending towards the sky. The chin is slightly lowered and our eyes can be partially open or closed. Our tongue is resting against the roof of the pallet and lightly touching the back of the top teeth.

The way in which hot yoga differs from other forms of yoga, you have probably guessed from the name. The idea behind the heat is that warm muscles stretch further with reduced risk of injury and that as you sweat your body releases toxins. Whilst your body fights to stay cool, your pulse rate increases resulting in more calories being burnt.

Nowadays our lives are so fast paced and yoga gives us the chance to anchor our feet back down to earth, to open our hearts to the beauty of life and most importantly to disconnect from our goings and our doings, so that we can just simply BE.

After my second child was born in 2006 I knew I did not want to return to my corporate career and decided to fulfill my 10 year long dream of training as a yoga teacher. My passion for yoga began over a decade ago whilst backpacking across India . Since then, yoga has become part of my everyday life. I completed the Yoga Alliance 200 hour teaching diploma in July 2008, a course taught by Brian Cooper.

Light Up Your Life Yoga covers yoga classes and yoga therapy delivered by Lucy Cleary. I started practising yoga in 2003 when I had mild postnatal depression after the birth of my youngest child. Yoga made a difference to my life almost instantly, helping me to feel like I could cope again, and helping me to sleep.
