ABOUT YOGA WITH BRITTANYB: From a young age I was drawn to spirituality. In my teen years I attended Transcendental Meditation and Reiki courses, studied Buddhism, attended retreats and trainings and explored as many spiritual and healing modalities as I could. However, it was in Yoga that I truly found my spiritual home. My journey with yoga started in 2003 and it was love at first sight <3 ... but I can say that I truly fell head over heels on my first trip to India in 2007. Over the years my commitment to a daily practice (sādhanā) grew and with it a glimpse of the transformational effects of yoga. My reverence for how yoga's practical tools and profound philosophy creates a road map for living a meaningful and awakened life, created an ever deepening calling in me to share this with others. I am a RYT Yoga Alliance certified teacher. I completed yoga teacher training courses in India: in Vinyasa Flow (RYT 200), Yin Yoga (RYT 100) and Prenatal Yoga (RYT 100) at Trimurti Yoga and Ashtanga Vinyasa at Abhinam Yoga (RYT 30). I am forever a dedicated student and take classes, trainings and workshops with teachers all over the world when I can... yoga's wisdom and gifts are endless and so are the opportunities for learning :) I believe strongly in the profound practice of yoga to bring health, balance and happiness into our lives. I love to share with my students how to find the balance between strength and gentleness, exploring the beautiful potential of the body and mind connection through creative and liberating sequencing. It is important to me to teach yoga safely by moving mindfully, offering alternatives and encouraging students to cultivate body awareness and respect. I love to weave yoga philosophy into the themes of my class because yoga is so much more than just an asana practice!

ABOUT THE STYLES OF YOGA I TEACH: Vinyasa Flow: Vinyasa Flow is a dynamic form of yoga that focuses on connecting breath with movement, building strength and flexibility and importantly finding peace of mind through a moving meditation. Vinyasa is a sanskrit word that means "to place in a special or sacred way" and has also been interpreted as linking movement with the breath. Less time is generally spent holding poses and rather emphasis is on smooth and graceful transitions and deep awareness of the breath. The more modern Vinyasa Flow style has its roots in Hatha and Ashtanga yoga, but unlike Ashtanga it doesn't follow a set sequence. The beauty of Vinyasa is its creativity, it gives the teacher and practitioner the freedom to create new sequences each time they step on their mat. This allows for the asana practices to be designed to suit the unique needs of each person in different moments and makes it accessible and healing to all. Sequences are often centred around peak poses or themes such as yoga philosophy, the five elements, hip or heart openers and much more. The dynamism of Vinyasa Flow builds strength while the moving meditation helps to quiet the mind and calm the nervous system, to relieve stress and anxiety and take you inwards.

Prenatal Yoga: My prenatal yoga classes have adapted asana, pranayama and meditation/ relaxation practices to be safe and nourishing for all pregnant folk. I designed this prenatal yoga course and filmed all the videos during my first pregnancy. I always knew I wanted to wait to create this offering when I could explore yoga’s beautiful tools within the real-life laboratory of my own pregnant body, mind and soul. My yoga practice was a constant refuge to connect with myself and my baby, to honour the changes with gentleness and nurturing, and to keep us both happy, healthy and centred. It is my sincere hope that this course will do the same for you and your growing baby. It can be accessed through Patreon or as a separate course with extra written content (contact me for more information about this). This course combines the lived experience of my own pregnancy, my 20 years of yogic practice and six years of teaching yoga, along with tools from prenatal yoga, Hypnobirthing, Meditation and Ayurvedic 5 Elements Theory. Together these tools helped me work through fears, to ride the waves of some of the challenging aspects of pregnancy, embrace the awe and magic of it and of birth, and trust myself, my body and my baby to birth. I'm so excited to share these offerings with other women and birthing folk, which have been such a sacred and powerful refuge for me on my pregnancy journey.

Yin Yoga: Yin Yoga targets our joints and connective tissue (especially fascia) and stimulates the subtle body- known as meridians (in Traditional Chinese Medicine) or Nadis in Hatha Yoga. It is composed of predominantly floor-based asanas/ shapes which are held passively and statically for 3-5 minutes each.Yin provides a gentle application of “stress” or “stimulation” in the form of tension and compression which induces a healthy phase change in our connective tissue and myofascial release. Yin yoga nourishes the Yin aspects of our body-mind complex and can have a powerful calming effect on your nervous system, promoting healing and encouraging body awareness and mindfulness. Unlike in Yang practices where alignment and symmetry are often a key focus, Yin yoga concentrates more on finding the ideal shape for your own unique body and mind... the focus is on what the shape feels like, allowing the practitioner to let go of what it looks like. This encourages a wonderful connection to your body and mind and deep inner awareness through which healing can take place.

Yin Yang Yoga: These classes bring together the benefits of passively holding yoga poses in Yin Yoga with more dynamic sequences of styles such as Vinyasa or Hatha Flow . Yin and Yang are part of the Taoist concept that describes the two relative qualities which are present in ourselves and in everything around us. Yin is a more internal, reflective, passive and cooling energy. While Yang is more dynamic, active, external and warming. Yang asana practices focus primarily on activating and stretching muscles, stimulating blood flow and building strength, stamina and flexibility. While the stillness and passive softening of Yin Yoga targets our joints and connective tissue (especially fascia) and stimulates the subtle body. These classes seek to balance the Yin and Yang aspects of ourselves to help you find your centre. A gentle Yang flow helps us to release physical and mental energy and tension, while the Yin part of the practice, where we hold our asanas for 3-5 minutes, gives us the discipline to sit quietly with ourselves and to find our stillness. Yoga provides the unshifting foundation and stability of a bridge, A bridge to your authentic nature, To the simple joy of truly being, Always there to keep you rooted, To gently guide you back, Through the mist and turmoil of modern life, A map through the dark and impenetrable parts of the mind, To the quiet, yet radiant tranquility that resides within.... Always there to warmly welcome you, unconditionally, Rain or shine Namaste ॐ
