`We see the world not as it is, but as we are - or, as we are conditioned to see it.

Stephen R Covey   (It is not just ancient yogis who can express the truths of our being - DO).

 Namaste, and welcome to my site. 

Here you will find more about me and my approach to yoga - and life.  Here you will also find much of the material I use in my teaching, so giving you an idea of what to expect if you attend my classes. 

For more serious students of yoga the Library contains notes on the series of talks I give which together contstitute the course I call Yoga Sadhana.  They may provide you with a basis for study leading to your taking other courses (including teaching courses) with other schools of yoga, or just help to fill in a few gaps in your knowledge.  Either way I hope they are useful.  
 

Please contact me if you are interested in joining a class or for a 1 to1 session.  The long delayed yoga room at my home is almost complete.  Visitors to the area from the rest of the UK or overseas are invited to join us at the Thursday evening class.  1-1 yoga guidance is now available in my new Yoga Studio in Broseley.
