about us
Florence and Nova have been practising yoga and meditation since the early 80s and teaching full time in London for more then 40 years combined. Both mother and daughter have acquired the Yoga Alliance Advanced qualifications through extensive training with a wide range of teachers internationally. Their teaching styles are inspired by the breath-synchronised dance of Vinyasa combined with the flow of prana and yet often holding poses within the sequence to develop a deepening of the asana and a precision of alignment. This is complimented by the sensitivity and softness of their gentler approaches like Yin yoga’s ability to access the blocked and tight places within us both physcally and mentally. Through yoga they are able to help us explore our highest potential, and most importantly of all bring a deep sense of joy to our lives.
The retreat setting also allows for plenty of individual guidance so that we’ll be able to work with your specific level and requirements.
