Alex Newton
I teach from my own experience and practice. I practice a more vigorous and flowing style of yoga as well as restorative yoga + yoga nidra (where you do a lot of lying around on the floor - it's really excellent) - so this is what I teach! In my vinyasa classes I enjoy encouraging students to explore the strength and suppleness in their bodies and to witness the process even when it may challenge them mentally or physically. I am an alignment based yoga teacher so I encourage healthy alignment for the individual, to seek the integrity in the pose, to explore their own experience, to find the subtlety in the practice and often we hold poses for longer. I also love teaching and practicing restorative yoga to facilitate rest, digestion, reduce anxiety and to explore being still. Can be weirdly difficult to begin with - we often aren't very good at not doing very much - but come along and simply notice what it brings up and how you may feel after. I teach Pregnancy Yoga too and am looking forward to sharing the empowering practice of yoga with you throughout this time of great change - which can be both very exciting as well as sometimes anxiety inducing. |
