YOUR TUTOR
With a background in Sivananda, Iyengar, Vinyasa and Scaravelli, Tuesday has been sharing her love of yoga since 1993 with the intention that the open and down to earth approach that she has embraced over the years makes yoga accessible to everyone. Deeply committed to her ongoing journey, she draws inspiration from my teachers including Marc J Acquaviva, Gary Carter, Seane Corn, Susannah Harwood Rubin, Christopher Hareesh Wallis, Tracee Stanley and Tias Little.
Creative, intuitive, person-centred and holistic, her classes encourage a spirit of enquiry. Students are supported to develop at their own pace through exploring the relationships between body, ground, breath and space and how this relates to experiencing a more embodied life.
Suitable for anyone who is looking to develop greater insight into the key principles of yoga and a more creative approach to their practice, classes and workshops explore different themes based on yoga philosophy, embodied awareness and heart-centred living.
