Get to know me better
Hi, I'm Renée. Based in SW London, I teach public group classes and workshops as well as individual and corporate private classes.
My intention as a yoga teacher is to create a safe space to foster a playful exploration of movement, reconnecting with the body, breath and spirit through a practice of awareness.
I've been teaching since 2018, when I traded the corporate life as marketeer for a 200hr teacher training in Hatha yoga.
Where I first started to discover the balance between effort and ease. This core theme in yoga teachings can be applied to daily life and support how we show up in the world.
My teaching style has evolved to incorporate creative sequencing designed to build a better foundation, understanding your own anatomy and autonomy of practice.
More about my personal practice
I really enjoy shifting the perception of movement most of us are conditioned with: to strive, to push, to chase a sense of effort or stretch. You get what you put in, right; but what if less is more? Sometime a little more understanding / technique means a lot less effort is needed.
It may seem like a juxtaposition but when I'm is not teaching sleepy restorative yoga, you can find me practicing or teaching partner acrobatics. A practice built on trust, communication and connection.
Acro is also a great practice in breaking through our limiting beliefs and attachments to gender roles and stereotypes within movement.
