Beginners Yoga Course

I believe that the benefits of a regular Yoga practice are endless - better mobility, improved sleep, increased flexibility, a calmer mind, less reactivity, more ability to be present and more freedom of movement. (And that’s only the beginning)

I also believe that sometimes Yoga can seem very inaccessible - from trying to keep up with the pace of a class to trying to understand words like Pranayama.

It takes a lot of courage to show up to your first class but for many, this is the beginning of a wonderful lifelong journey and practice.

The purpose of this course is to make Yoga accessible to everyone. I have compiled all of the foundations and basics that will leave you with a strong base to start your own Yoga practice or feel comfortable to jump into a class anywhere in the world.


So whether your goal is to improve flexibility, strength, calm a busy mind or enjoy deep relaxation, this is the perfect place to start!

  • "I HATE going to classes as I'm always so self conscious, but there was never a minute during your class that I felt I was being watched or judged or not good enough!"

    "I was very much a beginner and so intimidated trying to start off on a yoga journey! I've always wanted to practice yoga for mobility reasons, but always felt that I'd look silly and not be able for half the poses but decided to do something for myself when I saw you were running the challenge! I was soooo happy with myself after the first class! You have the most amazing way of explaining how to get into the poses and a real talent for teaching yoga! I was literally looking forward to the classes each day I was booked in for! As I mentioned I decided to start yoga for mobility reasons, but reaping all the other benefits was an extra reward! I really can't tell you enough how much I enjoyed taking that bit of time out for myself twice a week (never get to do it otherwise) and again, the way you teach is absolutely incredible

    I HATE going to classes as I'm always so self conscious, but there was never a minute during your class that I felt I was being watched or judged or not good enough! It's all about the lovely atmosphere you create! Thank you so much!"

  • "The stretches definitely helped my back a lot!"

    "I loved the challenge. I definitely feel a lot more confident practising on my own. I have a bad back and found that the stretches definitely helped my back a lot!"

  • "Felt a bit daunting beforehand but I loved the classes."

    "I loved it. Complete beginner and felt a bit daunting beforehand but I loved the classes. They were nice and slow and gentle. Even managed to actually be mindful so I was very impressed. Thanks for it all."

  • “Really enjoyed the classes"

    "Really enjoyed the classes. Will be back for more. The biggest thing for me from the classes was increased quality of sleep. Really makes a difference."

What is involved?

In this course, you will receive instruction on the basic physical foundations of a Yoga practice (hand placement alignment etc.) You will also learn about the core principles that underpin Yogic philosophy.

Each class begins with meditation and breathwork, accompanied by essential oils. The middle section consists of a warmup, main body and cool-down stretches which will incorporate work on stretching, mobility, balance, strength, stability and core work. I always end with 'Savasana' or a relaxation at the end to integrate everything that was done during class and then a short meditation. Students will also learn about meditation, traditional Yogic philosophy and the benefits of relaxation for the mind and nervous system.

A 5 week term is €55

This includes:

  • Introduction to Yoga, the basic physical movements and philosophy which will progress over the course of five weeks.

  • Guided meditation

  • Essential oils

  • Invigorating Yoga flow which includes a warmup, main body and cool-down incorporating work on stretching, mobility, balance, stability and core.

  • Savasana (relaxation) with optional adjustments.
