After traveling seven seas, both geographically and professionally, Mairi started running Yoga with Mairi classes in central Scotland, in 2018, gradually growing a small but inclusive community of dedicated Hatha Yoga practitioners. Now getting close to 1000 of teaching hours delivered. Mairi started practicing Hatha Yoga 20 years ago, and had an honour to learn from many amazing teachers across the world. Her practice was, however, particularly influenced by the Bihar and Hridaya schools of Yoga, and this orientation led her to discover the Akasha Yoga Academy (Bali/Thailand), where she completed her 200hrs Hatha Yoga Teacher Training in 2017. Mairi also holds a First Class Certificate in Philosophy of Yoga, from Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies affiliated to the University of Oxford (2016). Besides that, and somewhat relevant to her teaching, Mairi holds a continental MD qualification from her first degree, and she is a Master of Science in social medicine from her second degree. She also holds a postgraduate qualification in Cultural and Gender Studies. Since her first qualification from the School of Medicine at the University of Belgrade (Serbia), and until recently, Mairi was an academic researcher in social medicine and medical sociology, and for some time, also a lecturer. She was specialising in qualitative research and understanding health and access to healthcare, with a particular interest in complexity theory, holistic health & integrative healthcare.

Before finding yoga, Amor studied English Pedagogy at University for 5 years in order to teach English. Pedagogy is the science behind teaching. It is the study of how one learns best and what conditions facilitate learning. Her professional career as an English teacher started while living in Chile, and this made her realise that beyond teaching a language, she wanted to inspire her students to live healthier, happier lives and to realise the potential that lies within each one of them. She has been practicing yoga since 2007 and asanas (postures) makes only a portion of her yogic practice. She is a teacher who walks her talk and who is nurturing and caring. Amor is not only a passionate teacher but an avid student. She radiates her love of yogic texts, Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, fascia and more and shares this with all who see her regularly in her classes. With a functional approach to yoga, her “yang/active” classes encourage mindful movements in which traditional postures are combined with innovative transitions and different methods that support the development of the student’s mobility, flexibility, adaptability and strength. In her yin yoga classes, she guides practitioners not only through a somatic exploration but also through an cognitive and reflective journey, providing a safe haven for all. In her classes, you can expect pranayama practices, guided meditations, yoga nidra, inspiring themes and much more. With heart and soul, Amor brings a positive, explorative, insightful and nurturing approach to the practice and classes and provides her students with a truly holistic view of yoga.
