Brigitte has been practising yoga for 24 years and teaching for 9 years. She has experience in, Hatha yoga, Astanga yoga and Vinyasa Prana Flow yoga. In 2004 she was introduced to Anusara Yoga. Her first Anusara teacher training course had a transformational effect on her attitude towards life and literally transformed her Yoga practice opening her body, heart and mind consequently deepening her understanding of 'Yoga'. Her practice and teaching continues to pour knowledge into her life as she draws inspiration from her students as well as her teachers and she feels honoured to be able to share this passion with others. Brigitte believes that physical practice is about feeling the energy in each posture internally and to let this prana flow unobstructed within our bodies so that we feel a sense of freedom from both physical and emotional tension. The breath is the music and our body dances to it as she links creative, dynamic and at times challenging flow sequences. A strong focus is placed on postural alignment so that each student finds his or her unique optimal body blueprint moving towards a more vibrant, lighter, stronger, flexible, confident body and cultivating more love along the way. Her teaching also incorporates Restorative Yoga, Therapeutic Yoga, Pranayama, Mudras, Relaxation, Yoga Nidra and Meditation. Anusara Yoga is uplifting and fun, Brigitte welcomes and invites students of to be open to all possibilities, to embrace and expand their experience of yoga and life.

Susannah is a fully qualified British Wheel of Yoga teacher and has been practising yoga since childhood. Her teaching style is intuitive and creative, drawing on her main influences of Hatha Yoga, Viniyoga and Astanga Yoga. Her dance background also brings into play a focus on alignment.
For Susannah yoga is about breath and bringing a sense of space and freedom to the body. She teaches Hatha Yoga, inspired by the Viniyoga System with its one-to-one approach, with an emphasis on connecting the breath and movement, enabling her students to work with their bodies, get to know them and to take responsibility for their personal well-being. She applies this approach to all her classes where she ensures that adjustments and modifications are made for individual students - after all every body is different Susannah studied yoga as a child and grew up within the yogic philosophy. |

|
Power Vinyasa, which means breath-synchronized movement,
is a more vigorous style of Yoga based on the performance of a sequence of
poses such as Sun Salutations, in which movement is matched to the breath.

NAMASTE~ I qualified for my Yoga Teachers Diploma at ‘The International School of Yoga, Kevala Centre’. I studied Yoga philosophy, anatomy, physiology, and nutrient, Yoga for the disabled, for Pregnancy, children, the elderly and much more. My yoga style is Dynamic Hatha Yoga although, as I have also practiced most forms of Yoga, there are elements of Astanga, Dru, Kundalini Iyengar and Sivananda in there as well.
I have been teaching Yoga for ten years now and I have my REPS certificate
to advanced teacher level. I also study sports injuries and recovery. I have
taught in various Leisure centres, ‘The athletic club for gifted and
talented youths’, in colleges, schools and privately.
It is heart-warming for me, to help so many people, with their ‘Mind, Body
and Soul’ . I am still studying Yoga on a daily basis, as it is a ‘never
ending journey of learning!’
There will be a second class before dinner where we will practise Pranayama,
Meditation and Relaxation. |

Relax, rejuvenate and unwind the body and mind with Emma with seven days of pure Yoga bliss in the Turkish Sun! Mornings begin with an energising Vinyasa Yoga practice followed by breakfast/brunch. Retreaters will then have the rest of day to spend sightseeing, shopping, or simply relaxing poolside. In the late afternoon there will be a Hatha Yoga class to unwind before dinnertime. Emma fell in love with Yoga in her late teens and has since studied under the expertise of Louise Solomon at the Yoga Pilates Academy Australia, Yogi Vishvektu at the World Conscious Yoga Family in India and Edward Clark at the Tripsichore Yoga Company London. She has been teaching Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga full time since 2008 and continues her studies in Yoga Asana, Philosophy and Anatomy.

Inspired mainly by the Astanga and Iyengar traditions, Justine has had a dedicated Yoga practice since 1999, and excelled in her formal BWY-accredited teacher training at triyoga in London, a leading centre in the UK, where she is currently an Assistant Teacher on the 2009 teacher-training intake. She is based in Sussex where she teaches weekly classes in the local community. Justine teaches both dynamic flow- inspired sequences as well as more Hatha based explorative classes. She combines a passion for safe, clear alignment instruction, enabling students to deepen their understanding of the poses and their bodies, with a constant focus on integrating movement with the breath, using the breath to guide and create change. With students of varying experience in each class, she aims to support and challenge all students to find their edge, but with a light-hearted approach and emphasis on yoga being an enjoyable and rewarding practice that we keep coming back to. Justine sets the asana practice firmly within the wider intention of creating space and a sense of freedom and possibility, not just in the physical body but in all aspects of life. She sees yoga practice as an antidote to the perfectionism and endless striving of modern living, an invaluable tool to develop a healthier, broader perspective, and a sustaining sense of wellbeing and equilibrium.
A week of continuous practice is a great opportunity to take a leap forward and gather inspiration to take home with you. Morning sessions will be more flowing to get the energy moving, based a round a varying theme of poses, afternoons will be a combination of some asana ‘workshops’ and more restorative, rejuvenating practices. Each student within this small group will have personal guidance and appropriate instruction and modifications to get the most out of their yoga practice, whatever their starting point. Justine aims for everyone to end the week feeling totally rejuvenated, with greater clarity and confidence in their yoga practice and inspired to do more! Justine also has a particular interest in yoga philosophy and the background history to modern yoga practice, and would be happy to include some talks on this if students were interested.

Jude has been practising yoga and meditation for over sixteen years and has been teaching for eleven years. Over the years she has worked with, been inspired and influenced by many wonderful teachers whose knowledge and teachings have enriched her practice - Erich Schiffman, Sharon Gannon and David Life, Shiva Rea and, currently, Sarah Powers. She completed a
Teacher Training Course with the Bihar School of Yoga (Satyananda Yoga) under
the direction of Swami Vedantananda and assessed by Swami Pragyamurti, the
Principal of the School. This course is recognised by and is accredited with the
British Wheel of Yoga.
The yoga Jude teaches is a mix of the Yin style (focusing on the gently held postures that work on the connective tissue of the hips, pelvis and lower spine) and the stronger Yang practise that emphasizes muscular movement and contraction. The combining of the two helps to create a balanced practice "on the mat" which can be helpful in balancing our life "off the mat". There is much emphasis on the flow of the breath and how we allow the breath to be the initiator for the movement of the body. The sessions also include pranayama, relaxation and visualisation practices plus nada yoga and meditation. |

to improve posture and human functioning. One can increase the ease and
range of motion, improve flexibility and rediscover the natural capacity
for efficient movement. |

Marc Woolford's unusual but deeply effective approach to yoga is founded on the teachings of Vanda Scaravelli. Time is given to exploring the relationships between the forces of gravity operating through the body and the action of the breath. The postures can then develop from these relationships with a glorious sense of expanding out from the core of the body - 'undoing' and elongating the spine. Surprisingly challenging but suitable for all. Marc has been dedicated to this approach to yoga since 1994, working exclusively with other Scaravelli inspired teachers such as Pete Blackaby, John Stirk, Diane Long and Sophy Hoare and runs regular workshops and weekends around the UK as well as in India, France and the States. He is known for his infectious enthusiasm for the work, and through his deep understanding of the nature of movement, has developed a reputation for helping transform people's practise. He is also very clear that yoga practise is a very personal journey, and is keen to make sure that everyone feels free to work at their own level and pace.

Yoga with Susannah
Hoffman 
Susannah’s
classes have a meditative quality and work on the principles of ‘Sthira and
Sukham’ - (form and experience, strength and softness). So although her
classes can be quite demanding they are also deeply relaxing. Her years of
dancing have given Susannah an invaluable knowledge of the body, which
enhances her ability to teach yoga. In addition she has studied both
holistic massage and herbalism - and therefore has a very broad and balanced
view of the body.
