What brought me to Yoga and why I do it? I was looking to improve my flexibility
and to aid relaxation. Like many people I wondered what to expect at my first
class, but I was hooked from the beginning and came away feeling calmer and more
energised, ready to take on life. It brought me an hour of calm in my day. I was
eager to learn the asanas (poses) and their Sanskrit names (classic language of
ancient India), the breathing exercises and always savoured resting in Corpse
pose (Savasana) at the end of class. I then decided to explore yoga in more
depth, learn about the philosophy and anatomy and to teach yoga to others, so I
enrolled on the Diploma course with Yogacampus where I was taught by some truly
inspiring yoga teachers including Lisa Sanfilippo, Jo Manuel, Katrina Repka, Liz
Lark, Aadil Palkhivala, Doug Keller and Dr. Ruth Gilmore. For me yoga gives me
energy and focus, makes me smile, and keeps me grounded in everyday life. Even
when it is challenging I love it and it makes me seek out more. Every day I
arrive on my mat I have a new experience and that is great!
