ener-g yoga with gemma hinde
My earliest memories of doing yoga are with my mother as a child. I was brought
up with an awareness of wellbeing, physical fitness and nutrition and I had a
very sporty childhood. After a career in modelling and working in events where
the pressure to be thin was high, I refused to diet and instead used physical
exercise and nutrition to keep myself in shape for work. My interest in exercise
and healthy eating led me to pursue a career as a Personal Trainer which I did
for a good few years. I loved this work but didn’t feel it always gave me the
opportunity to work with a person holistically. Clients often neglected their
mental health and did not make stretching a priority which I believed to be so
important for overall body health so I embarked upon some yoga qualifications
and my journey as a yoga teacher began. I knew this to be my future work so
after a short break to have my children, I took a 200 hour teacher training in
Vinyasa Flow with the well renowned Claire Missingham. I have been teaching ever
since. I took on our beautiful studio in November 2018 and I feel very lucky to
call it my place of work and do what I do each day. Life is busy and sometimes
stressful and demanding. It can be easy to neglect our wellbeing. Practices like
yoga, breathwork and meditation help guide us towards strategies to help manage
our lives and take better care of ourselves. I believe that yoga is for everyone
and that you should be able to practice in a way that compliments your body and
your needs. Some like to practice slow and some like to be more dynamic, some
need a practice that is kind to an injury or an ailment/illness. Some are
beginners and some have been practicing for years. At Ener-G Yoga studio we
really try to offer a large range of classes that help people to find the type
of yoga that works for them. From Breathwork and Meditation classes to Vinyasa
Flow and Aerial Yoga classes, you should be able to find a class that inspires
you. We look forward to welcoming you.
