Charlotte & Yoga
I attended my first yoga class over 10 years ago and immediately knew that it would be a large part of the route to overcoming the long-term illness that I had at the time. I starting attending Jim Tarran’s classes soon after and found that I responded very deeply to the aspect of body intelligence so fundamental in Vajrasati yoga.
As a Nutritional Therapist and Yoga Teacher I find that the combination of nutrition and yoga help me personally to deal with the stressful aspects of modern life. I also use the principles of yoga within my nutrition work to help people get to the root causes of health problems; as I specialise in stress-related problems, yoga’s focus on calming and working with the nervous system perfectly complements my therapy work. In this way I can work with clients on a one-to-one basis in both disciplines for an all-round body and mind health programme.
Vajrasati Yoga (500 hour Yoga Alliance training) was founded by Jim Tarran who trained in ‘Hatha’ and Iyengar yoga. We work with the breath to focus on depth and opening. Moving tension from the body and stilling the mind in this way helps us both cope with and recover from the busy world around us.
I have also trained in teaching yoga for people with ME and Chronic Fatigue with Fiona Agombar. I teach specifically in a restorative and gentle manner for these conditions.
“I’m really enjoying yoga with Charlotte. She really is committed to the principles of yoga and is attentive to the needs of her students, making sure you get the very most from her classes.”
