What I Offer

All Classes

​HATHA YOGA:  You are invited to participate in a mindful practice. This class concentrate on bringing balance and harmony to both body and mind, students hold each pose through several breaths and modification are given to suit individual needs. The pace is slow and gentle focusing on breathing and correct alignment, often there is no flow between poses. Perfect for people wanting to learn the core basics and single poses with relaxation techniques.

​​​

HATHA VINYASA :  In this class students synchronize the physical movement with the breath to flow from one posture to the next which helps guide the body into lightness and alignment, focusing the mind and internal awareness. Vinyasa flow helps build and maintain strong bones, boost the immune system, and encourage relaxation. Class is suitable for everyone as it flows at a medium pace with lots of options along the way. 

​​​

YIN YOGA: Yin yoga is a slow, steady, and meditative style of yoga that targets the deep connective tissues, bones, joints, fascia, and ligaments in the body. In a yin yoga practice all the postures are held for sustained periods of time (3-5 mins), within these long holds there is an encouragement of softness and an emphasis on relaxing muscular tissue.

The simplicity of a yin practice allows us to return to our bodies, provides an opportunity to observe, nurture, soothe and calm ourselves. Yin teaches us how to be gentle, patient, and nonreactive.

Children's yoga

I’m a Children’s yoga teacher fully trained in the yoga bananas technique. It's an established method of teaching yoga and physical theatre to children in a fun, inspiring and structured way. The technique helps children nurture a positive image of themselves and others. 

The classes aim to maintain a child's natural flexibility. The emphasis on the breath in each technique increase the level of oxygen in the blood, resulting in optimum brain function and support for children's learning as it persuades the mind to focus on the present moment giving children the opportunity to  experience a more fulfilling approach to learning and play.

​

Yoga for children in primary school, suits all age groups from 3-11 years. Through yoga, children can learn to relax, concentrate and be gentle in a fun and creative environment. Yoga classes will benefit children both physically and emotionally, decrease their hyperactivity, improve their focus, develop their listening and concentration skills.​

Teen yoga

"Empower young people to live authentic and fulfilling lives by providing them with useful toolkit to improve their wellbeing". 

Yoga can help teens mentally refocus on the task at hand. By practicing living in the moment on the mat, teenagers can more fully concentrate on the present off the mat. Build focus, confidence and self-discipline while enjoying the physical practice. Yoga can help relaxation, build strength, increases flexibility, lengthen the muscles, increase coordination and balance, building core stability.

Yoga in secondary school, promoting wellbeing and enhances emotional understanding through the practice of yoga and mindfulness, "planting the seeds of potential." Yoga classes helps teenagers to engage more fully in their personal lives, in school and in society.

MEET NATHALIE

Allow me to share a little about myself. I grew up in the French Alps and came to London to follow my passion for traveling. For 12 years I worked in the Airline industry and flew around the world. After starting a family my career in the aviation had to take a back seat. I cherished every day of been a staying home mum but while I was taking care of everyone else I forgot who I was. Once I started to incorporate self-care and daily yoga practice into my daily life, my true, authentic self was able to breathe. From this space, my passion for teaching yoga came alive. 

I have been practicing yoga for over 25 years, exploring many styles like; Ashtanga, Iyengar, Hatha, Yin yoga and Meditation.
