Verity

Yoga Teacher

Hi, I’m Verity. I’ve been practising yoga for about 20 years and teaching for a decade, which still feels like the dream job and a huge privilege!

I tried my first yoga class in my mid-20s and loved it, despite wobbling lots and barely keeping up with the sequences. I was living in Reading at the time and working in an uninspiring office job; my
weekly yoga class soon became a highlight of my week.

My Journey

In 2008 I moved to Leamington and started attending ashtanga and vinyasa classes. I really loved the physical aspect of the practice, especially the strength and flexibility that it brought, although over time I also started to appreciate the more holistic benefits of yoga, not least the peace, focus, and sense of connecting with something beyond myself. In 2009 I completed a teacher training programme with the Freestyle Yoga Project and in 2010-11 undertook a 200hr Yoga Alliance accredited teacher training programme with Sun Power Yoga. Since then I’ve attended workshops and trainings with many inspiring teachers, as well as continuing to learn through personal practice. My teaching draws on the traditions of ashtanga and vinyasa flow, interweaving yoga philosophy with a focus on breath awareness and mindful movement. For me there is something a bit magical about yoga and it’s a real joy to be able to share it!
