In 2019 after 11 years of practising yoga I decided to delve deeper and
completed my yoga teacher training with the Laura Green Yoga Teacher
Training School. I've been teaching in the community since and I'm
grateful to all the students who have joined me along the way.
As a Yoga Teacher and also a practising Therapist, I'm passionate about
the world of psychology and therapy, I'm fascinated by the link between movement
and breath, the nervous system, and our emotional well-being. I believe that by understanding these connections, we can find more ease and resilience both on and off the mat.
Oxygen Advantage Trained
In 2024, I qualified as a Functional Breathing Instructor through the Oxygen Advantage method. I now weave these science-backed breathing techniques into my weekly classes to help students improve their physical and mental well-being and support their nervous system.
My Teaching Style
My classes are playful, light-hearted, and explorative. I encourage you to be curious about your unique body and move in a way that feels truly good for you. My hope is that through a regular practice of yoga, you will deepen your connections to your mind, body, and spirit.
Off the mat I'm known for my love of the outdoors and you'll find me out walking with my family and our adorable Cockapoo, chasing sunsets, cycling, sea dipping or playing on our paddleboard!
Please note: While I love sharing insights on emotional well-being with my yoga community, I do not see current yoga students within my private counselling practice. This is to ensure I adhere to professional ethical guidelines regarding dual relationships and, most importantly, to prioritise your psychological safety.
About Becky: Yoga Teacher, Breathwork Coach & Integrative Therapist.
Hi I'm Becky
Where it all began...
It was 2007 and my world had changed overnight as I experienced a tragic and devastating loss. Shortly after, I set off travelling, accidentally drove a quad bike off a bridge in Thailand and broke my pelvis. I carried on (with the help of my amazing friend) and backpacked around South East Asia on crutches then headed to New Zealand.
I'd never been into yoga, martial arts had been my passion, but in New Zealand I felt drawn to a yoga retreat. I had free accommodation and all the yoga (meditation, asana, chanting, chats on philosophy) and I helped on the land. I was the only person at the centre. This my friends, was the start of my yoga journey.
The morning bell would chime at 5.30am, signalling the start of our day. We moved through a physical practice, meditated and remained in silence until after breakfast. I was deep in my grief. I'd roll my mat out in the morning with tears streaming down my face.
When moving through the postures the focus required brought
me into the present moment. I felt strong and determined.
I experienced emotional release, connection to inner strength
and comfort from the spiritual practice. My yoga practice
became a daily anchor.
My Yoga practice has evolved into a way of life that supports
me physically, emotionally and spiritually, through all the
wonderful joys and challenges that life brings.
Thank you for reading a little about my yoga story.
Becky
