Your Teacher
About Emma
I fell in love with yoga over 20 years ago at university. I then travelled with a close friend and senior yoga teacher, who taught me yoga everywhere we went; from an apartment in Barcelona to the mountains in Peru. We spent much time in deep conversations about yoga philosophy and Buddhism.
Unbeknown to me at the time I also fell in love with what I know now to be called ‘mindfulness’ and felt a strong connection to the book The Power or Now by Eckhart Tolle. At that point I started meditating and have been doing so for over 15 years.
Eager to share my passions, in 2015 I completed the British Wheel of Yoga Teacher Training Foundation Course, followed in 2016 by the Yoga Alliance 240 Hours Yoga Teacher Training. I have since completed the Mamata Yoga Prenatal Teacher Training, have a diploma in Mindfulness and am working towards a diploma in Sound Healing.
Yoga, meditation and mindfulness are the foundations of my life. Keeping me sane and mentally well.
About the Classes
Classes take place in two locations. Tuesday and Wednesday group yoga classes, meditation classes, private classes and sound healing sessions take place in Emma’s yoga studio, a special place nestled in the heart of Stanmore.
Friday group yoga classes take place at Canons Community Association, Canons Hall, 1-17 Wemborough Road, Stanmore HA7 2DU.
Whichever class you join you be welcomed to a warm, friendly, space, where my intention is for you to feel comfortable to practice yoga in the best way for your unique body. You are welcome just as you are.
Throughout the classes I invite you to move in ways that feel best for your individual needs without judgment and offer you the opportunity to explore the poses in the most comfortable way for you.
Everyone is welcome.

“My sessions never fail to put me in an excellent frame of mind. As a beginner, I feel challenged and gently encouraged to develop my skills in a wonderful setting with a wonderful teacher.”
