Meet the team

* Rebecca Enderby will be your yoga teacher.

Rebecca is a yoga teacher, jeweller and ex-academic ! She has been practicing yoga since finding it at her university gym in 2005 and teaching since the end of 2015. Her practice has changed and evolved over the years but it has always been her anchor. Knowing that she can get on the mat to move and breathe in some form is a very valuable part of her mental health and wellbeing tool-kit.

Rebecca teaches Hatha, Vinyasa, Restorative and Yoga Nidra but most of her practice and teaching is a strong but steady Vinyasa flow. Her classes focus on building strength and awareness in the body wanting the students to learn about their bodies as they move with the breath – and in turn also become aware of what is going on in the mind. Whilst the classes are on the stronger side they are adaptable to all levels. The classes will also be a little bit playful. We are here to move, breathe and discover. Rebecca is excited by what yoga can teach us both on and off the mat.

Rebecca has a PhD in Human Geography and had the privilege of spending seven months living in Bangalore, South India, for her research. She fell in love with India and this is where the seed was sown to become a yoga teacher. She did 200 hour training with Erin Prichard at The Power Yoga Company in London and has since trained in pre and post-natal yoga with Yoga London. She has taken workshops with Stephanie Snyder and Jason Crandell and considers Jason to be one her key teachers, through the power of the internet! Off the yoga mat she is a runner, coffee seeker, art lover and sometimes binges on Netflix !
