My Background

 

Sam strongly believes that anyone can do yoga. As Desikachar famously said, “If you can breathe, you can do yoga.”You don't need to be a particular size or shape, or already strong or flexible, to join her classes.

For Sam, yoga isn't about how a pose looks, but how it feels for the individual. Her classes are welcoming and adaptable, accommodating everyone from complete beginners to experienced yogis.

Sam began practising yoga over 30 years ago and, after many years of personal practice, decided to become a teacher. She completed the British Wheel of Yoga Level 4 Diploma, a two-year, 500-hour teacher-training programme. When the COVID-19 pandemic interrupted her training, Sam continued online and began teaching weekly online classes in November 2020. She now teaches both in person and online.

Sam is passionate about helping others experience the benefits yoga can bring to everyday life.
She lives on a small farm in Bury with her husband and children, numerous rescued cats and her much-loved chickens. Away from yoga, she enjoys gardening and spending time looking after her animals.
