About Val

‘’My intention as a teacher is to introduce you to ways of comfortably moving your body to feel good, whether that is through a strong Yoga Flow or a deep insightful Yin Yoga Class. To guide you in connecting on different level with your body, mind, emotions and energy.

I don’t believe in “one size fits” all and encourage exploration of all types of movement and training. In my opinion strength over flexibility any day. All of my classes are open to beginners. We gather as a community to collectively play our own personal edge on the mat, no one is better than the other. There is no end goal to reach, there’s no competition just a journey to enjoy. I just hope that what you learn on the mat, you can take with you into your life, off the mat. That beautiful ripple effect’’

Val has been teaching Yoga for 10 years and Yin Yoga Teacher trainings for 2 years. Her love of Yin started in 2019 when she attended a class reluctantly. After being a lover of yang practices she didn’t think she would enjoy it. The class sparked something and she immediately signed up to a course, after finishing she enrolled in 2 more. One being a 300hr an intensive few weeks in India. Wanting to learn from a few different teachers as each approach is different. She sticks to the origional teachings of Bernie Clark with a functional and anatomical approach. The energetics of Yin Yoga are fascinating and can be used in all aspects of your life. It’s a gorgeous addition to any Yin class to really educate your students beyond the poses.
