“I can’t recommend Jo’s classes highly enough. I’ve dipped in and out of yoga over the years but never really felt fully engaged with it. With Jo as a teacher it has been a very different, much more positive, experience. I attend her nurturing classes and come out of them feeling like I’m walking on air! Jo teaches yoga in a relaxed, easy to understand, and calm-inducing way.”

“Jo is a great teacher and her classes just what my mind and body needed after the pregnancy and a baby that doesn’t sleep through the night! Thanks Jo, I’m feeling happier : ))) x” Claire Frances Agnes Gilmour – 02/09/2014

“I can’t rate Jo highly enough! Everything in her classes is explained incredibly well and her teaching style puts everyone at ease. The classes are invigorating yet calming, while they nurture the body, mind and soul. Most importantly though, they are FUN! xx”

“Going to Jo’s yoga classes was the best thing I did during pregnancy. I stated around 20 weeks and continued right up to 40. I found the breathing techniques and positions extremely useful both during pregnancy, to ease aches and pains and help me sleep, and during labour to manage contractions. Practising over so many weeks meant that it was second nature by the time labour came. The classes were a lovely bit of me time and a chance to chat to other mums to be too. I hope to return one day if there is a child no. 2!”

“I have got a hectic lifestyle and love the happy relaxed atmosphere of the classes with Jo. They are certainly not easy but well explained and demonstrated with alternative levels on the postures. I can’t recommend Jo and her classes enough.”
