Trapeze Yoga Instructor Nancy

Nancys journey as an instructor in the world of health and wellness started over 30 years ago. In her 20s she became a Level 3 Personal Trainer and Gym Instructor working with two local authorities and working alongside local GPs to advise on health and wellness within the communities.

It was during a stint within a medium secure hospital as a female wellness advisor a few years later, she came across the benefits of Yoga for mental health and wellness. So, a year into her position, in 2001, Teacher Training was embarked upon and completed. 

Whilst working with the ladies of the hospital she found a way to connect and empower not only through movement but also through the power of the breath and so her love for Yoga and all its amazing benefits was born.

Fast forward 20 years of teaching and a long, rich, and rewarding career in the fitness industry, she found herself on a winter sabbatical in southern Spain and it is here she discovered the amazing discipline of trapeze yoga and found a completely new love for the body and how it can move. She was so impressed, that took herself off to Barcelona that very same winter for the training and in the January of 2018 returned to the UK as a fully-fledged trapeze yoga instructor...... and so, the journey began.

Trapeze yoga really is the most amazing discipline born of Iyengar yoga. In trapeze you work with a set of straps and a sling that allow all ages and all abilities to feel and experience the benefits of props and the full assistance of gravity in yoga. Inversions, passive stretches, strength work, back care. The list goes on. A whole new world to your practice away from the mat.
