Yoga Chikitsa Course

"BUILD YOUR HOME YOGA PRACTICE"

The 'Yoga Chikitsa Course' draws on many methods of yoga (Hatha, Ashtanga, Kundalini and Iyengar Yoga); this personal yoga course (design takes into account past injuries and general health), is held on a one-to-one basis over a period of six weeks (one hour session a week).

Ever wondered why you find it difficult to achieve an asana (posture) after years of practice or why your spine, neck, shoulders, arms, legs and pelvis positioning in asana looks different to the images presented in yoga materials?  Learn more about yourself in asanas (postures).

The cost is £160 for six hourly sessions (paid in advance) and cheques are paid to the 'Yoga Chikitsa Academy'.

Testimonial:

"I have done yoga for a number of years, but after a lull have recently come back to practice it again.  I have just completed the 'Yoga Chikitsa Course' with Danielle.  This has been really useful as she has been able to highlight my strengths and weaknesses, whilst adjusting my postures to help me improve.  She has subsequently designed a personalised yoga programme for me to follow at home. 

Danielle is an inspirational yoga teacher who has motivated me to incorporate yoga into my daily busy life.  She has also re-introduced me to aspects of yoga that I have neglected (e.g. breathing and meditation).  As a result I am feeling the numerous rewards from my yoga practice - not only physically but mentally."
