Testimonials - Yoga with Fiona
"Fiona is a really patient teacher who is able to communicate very clearly, adapt and work with me and where I am in each session. I feel I have benefitted from her very broad knowledge of yoga and really enjoyed our time"
"Your yoga classes have been wonderful. I have enjoyed the opportunity to attend a yoga class again and enjoyed your teaching. It couldn't have come at a better time for me as I was struggling with my mental health and the chance for relaxation, new focus and time away from my problems has done me the world of good and got me through. Attending the yoga class has helped me in more ways than you will know and for that I am very grateful."

"I found the sessions really helpful for managing fatigue and building back my strength and stamina. The first two sessions really helped me to find a yoga practice which worked with my fatigue. The first sequence you provided was a really helpful one as it felt manageable and the movement helped me to feel less tired. I felt that the subsequent sessions were really great for helping me to recover from a period of worse fatigue and building my strength but especially my confidence. The fatigue meant I felt anxious about attending yoga classes or pushing too hard in yoga. Fiona really helped me to work on finding my confidence in yoga again and build up to managing full yoga classes."

"Overall, I found the yoga therapy really helpful for supporting me to adapt yoga to how I am feeling in that moment. However, one of the biggest benefits was the relaxation element – both in the session and thinking how I could integrate that more into my day-to-day life. For part of the yoga sessions, I was struggling with work-related stress and yoga therapy helped me to refocus on stress management. Fiona helped me to think about more holistically about relaxation – not just yoga – which was really helpful – especially given the relationship between stress and fatigue."

"I wanted to thank you for all your yoga classes- you’ve really deepened my relationship to yoga and yoga therapy. I really benefited from the yoga therapy you offered me and also from the holistic nature of your knowledge too.
And particularly I’ve always been so impressed at how inclusive your classes are and want to use them as a model for my own way of working with people and making yoga for everyone and everybody."

Fiona has a lovely warm presence that allows space for reflection. The overall experience was extremely positive for me. I was able to talk about things that have been concerning me for some months. Fiona was able to contain my anxiety and offered a safe space for me to explore these things with her gentle guidance and wisdom. I feel much lighter and more focused on where yoga can fit into my life at this time, and how it can help with some of the areas that are causing pain (both physical and emotional).
