Yoga entered Alexandra’s life back in 1992 when she enrolled on a weekly Hatha yoga class in Rickmansworth and continued for several years experiencing the different postures, breathing exercises, meditations, energy centres (chakras) and Buddhist principles. This led her to study in a wide range of touch and mind therapies on her return to the UK and slowly build up her practice and reputation. D
uring this time she tried out other forms of yoga and movement: Astanga (Yan/Power Yoga) 5 Rhythms and Feldenkrais otherwise known as Awareness through movement. In 2002 she relocated to South Devon and started practising Restorative yoga inspired by Vanda Scaravelli (Awakening the Spine) with Bill Wood until 2014, As well as some Astanga yoga with John Evans, whilst training in a degree in Contemporary Choreography at Dartington College of Arts. Between 2007 and 2014 Alexandra taught & performed in Contemporary Flamenco, taught Cuban Salsa and offered Zumba Fitness & Toning sessions within her community. In 2014 she moved back to her hometown and started teaching yoga to groups (& one to one) of friends and family members in her garden and dining room. After her first year of teaching with the support from her teacher and students, she decided to take the 200hr Yoga Alliance - Yoga & Mindfulness Teacher Training course with Still Flowing Yoga in Ibiza (May 2015). Her practice is constantly growing and she now offers private yoga sessions within clients’ homes and a regular weekly class on Tuesdays from the Rickmansworth Yoga Shala.
