‘Em is an incredible yoga teacher. I started going to her classes back in 2019 and since lockdown have trained with her every week since then. It will be 4 years this March.
Her teaching focuses on strength and stability as well as flexibility which is so important whatever age you are. She always explains things in a very clear and accessible way. As a physiotherapist she has an in-depth knowledge of how the body works and is always sensitive to whatever issues you might have and will give you ways to adjust.’

‘I’ve been going to Emily’s classes for five years now - starting as a complete novice it was a bit scary at first but she makes everybody welcome and teaches all abilities in the same class in a great environment. It’s a special moment in my week when I forget all the other rubbish and melt into discovering how far I am able to flex and stretch!! Would recommend it to anybody, especially if you’re new to yoga, a bit older like me or not so sure….’

‘Em is a fantastic yoga teacher - she helps me to understand the purpose of postures and breaks them down so I feel I’ve really progressed in my yoga practice since attending Em’s classes. She is reassuring that we can all go at our own pace and she makes sure she includes people at all abilities in one class. Em is also just very lovely - her yoga teaching kept me sane during lockdowns. Her in person classes at the Lido Pavilion are a lovely peaceful hour in my week - a place with twinkly lights and soothing music. I always feel better after a class. Thank you Em.’

‘I started going to Em's classes without much expectation. I had zero yoga experience and I wasn't in the best physical shape. Em helps at all times to improve posture without feeling pressured or judged. It's a very calm and safe environment where even a shy person can feel very comfortable. These classes have really helped me with the stress caused by this city and the harsh winter. It's an instant relief. Highly recommended.’

‘Em is an outstanding yoga teacher. There are plenty of excellent practitioners out there, but what sets Em apart is that she really teaches. Rather than just being a guide for you to follow, she explains what you are going to do, how best to achieve it and why you are going to do it - precisely where your body (and mind) will benefit. Because she understands anatomy so well, you can really believe in where she is taking you. Oh, and her classes are relaxed and fun as well.’

‘I've been attending Em's yoga classes for a few years now (and on zoom through lockdown). Em is the best yoga teacher I've ever had... the classes change focus from week to week, so you are constantly learning, and feeling different parts of your body (in a good way!). There's not one time I've been and not felt amazing afterwards (or pleased with my progress - I still have trouble with the balances!) and if I miss a class I'm really miffed with myself. Highly recommend - Em is a really experienced teacher - and also lovely! And what can I say - doing a yoga class at Tooting Bec Lido - day or night - you don't get a better view than that!’

‘Excellent yoga classes, I went as a complete beginner and have progressed well with Emily as a teacher. A really welcoming and inclusive atmosphere all round. I highly recommend these classes to people of all levels of yoga.’

‘Excellent yoga classes in a great location - the perfect combo! The studio overlooking the lido is spacious and clean. Em is a fantastic yoga teacher, I’ve been attending her classes regularly for years and was never disappointed.’

‘Em is incredibly knowledgable, I have been practising yoga for over 30 years now and I learn something new in every class. Em is thorough and that makes her style of teaching suitable for everyone, from absolute beginners to the very experienced. I really enjoy her classes, I leave feeling like it was designed just for me! I have a feeling everyone else does too, that's magic!’

‘I’ve been going to Emily’s Ashtanga Classes for some years now, she has a fantastic energy and respect for the practice and the people who come to the classes. There are always lots of options for different levels of experience or none, and she always takes the time to talk to people with specific questions about the practice. Highly recommend.’

‘Emily’s inclusive teaching enables different ability levels to progress at their own speed… and always with a sense of fun and enjoyment.
A magical view of Tooting Bec Lido from the studio means it doesn’t get much better than this.’
