Testimonials

 

"Since I first began practising with Chris I have always found his attention to detail of great benefit. I feel that he teaches the Ashtanga practice in a way that makes it accessible and understandable for all, he actively promotes the philosophy and theory behind the practice, especially within a workshop setting. I know that I will always learn something new from Chris and I feel able to explore my own practice more creatively as a result"

"Your love and enthusiasm for yoga comes across in bucket loads. You've inspired me to do my first self practice, how fabulous - It has taken 20 years of teacher led yoga (which I won't stop doing) for me to manage self practice. Thanks for the inspiration"

"Hi Chris – been meaning to let you know, that was the best workshop yet. The morning was wonderfully challenging and the modifications were great. You are very good at combining the physical anatomy of yoga with the spiritual theory, both of which I find inspiring. The afternoon session on moola banda was fascinating. I have since felt taller and more energised so I think I might have found I my bandhas – the challenge now is not to let them go again! Thanks for a great workshop. Looking forward to the next one!"

"I am a yoga teacher on the isle of wight and really impressed with your site my student actually sent me your link and we both now follow u hopefully attending one of your courses next year. I love your latest article on the beginner it is so true, I have been battling with tailors pose for ages having achieved a lot of the more advanced postures, my chiropractor told me to take a beginners view strip the posture bare and re-build how u find where u have cheated to get to a pose, the practice slows and calms and becomes rich a brilliant piece of advice, everyone should do it, keep up the great work"

"Thank you for a truly inspiring day, I loved your energy and knowledge. Your way of teaching is refreshing, I am still floating today may be the inversions, but I think it is more that I have truly found the truth within the breath, totally uplifting, I am so excited to borrow some of your ideas of finding the breath and bandhas, it's as if a secret has been unlocked and I know my practice will develop deeper and with respect. Would love to explore further but work and time call, but I will definitely be back. Thank you"

"I participated in the Vinyasa Workshop in Exeter on 21/01/12. This was the 3rd workshop organised by Chris that I have attended and they have all been exemplary. He caters for all levels and encourages beginners and experienced practitioners alike. He has a good knowledge of the philosophy and science of yoga and brings a spirituality to the practice that is very lacking in many yoga sessions. I highly recommend him as a class teacher and for a workshop. I hope he continues to grow and develop and allow his students to benefit from his inspiration"

"Thank you for the inspiration, until last Saturday I mainly practised Ashtanga to keep fit and to see how far I could push myself physically and mentally. I've always been passionate about Hatha yoga but you opened my eyes to the breath and how the ashtanga series works. Thank you again for the truly inspirational lesson"

"Thank you so much for Saturday's workshop. It was well worth the journey from Hampshire (after only 2hrs sleep too). The session taught me to breathe. Finally! At 40, to learn how to actually breathe in a way which enables the body to achieve its potential was a revelation. I hope my four children don't have to wait quite so long to learn that skill.

Checked out several of the yoga pose videos on your website; great stuff. Much, much more informative and illustrative than a book. I'm going to work my way through them. All of them.

Definitely hoping I'll be able to attend another of your fab workshops in the near future. Crossing fingers. And legs. And arms!"
