Private yoga sessions in Oxford
My private yoga sessions in Oxford offer deeply personalised classes to improve mobility, reduce stress, and feel stronger in body and mind.
These one-to-one sessions are tailored to your body, energy levels, and goals, whether you are new to yoga or returning to practice after injury, burnout, or a demanding period of life.
Some days we may focus more on de-stressing stretches, postures, and guided rest meditations, other days we can be more active. I listen to what you feel you need, and I offer my own observations and insights too. There is never any pressure to do anything you are uncomfortable with, physically or emotionally.
With over 25 years of personal yoga practice, more than a decade of teaching experience, and as co-author of the best-selling title The Book of Rest, I offer calming, thoughtful private yoga sessions designed to help people steady themselves, inside and out.
I can come to your home or workplace anywhere in Oxfordshire.

FAQs
Who is private yoga for?
Really, anyone. If you’re feeling called to the practice, then we start there, whether you have never tried yoga before or if you’re simply looking for new guidance. I take a non-performative approach and my work is especially useful for people feeling overwhelmed, wired, unable to settle, distracted, and disconnected from themselves, body and mind.
I work with:
• people dealing with stress or overwhelm
• busy high achievers
• those recovering from injury and illness not looking for therapeutic guidance but ready to rebuild confidence and connection to their body
• people wanting a thoughtful, personalised yoga practice
• those navigating life transitions
What happens in a private session?
Firstly, I listen. I understand where you are, where you want to be, and why. Then, I’ll start working with you using any combination of movement, breathwork, meditation, deep rest, and visualisation practices.
It’s a completely tailored approach and I welcome ongoing feedback - some days you might be feeling more energetic, others in need of calm and focus.
What are the benefits of private yoga?
You’ll have dedicated time in your week to stop, reflect, process, and be. You might see any or all of these benefits:
• calmer nervous system
• improved mobility and strength
• clearer thinking and focus
• more energy and better sleep
