Yoga with Mags

I tried yoga for the first time when I was studying abroad. I kind of dipped in and out of practice but the connection remained as I always went back to it. I then found my teacher next to whom I became devoted to the practice and gradually realised how much yoga helps you realise what's really important in life. Yoga allows you to meet yourself on the mat without any judgement and explore what’s within so it doesn’t overwhelm you.

I advocate strength as you can be born flexible but you become strong through continuous practice. But foremost, we need to learn how to be kind to ourselves and through that we can shape the practice to make it our own. When you know yourself and your body better, you know when to push yourself harder and turn your practice up a notch. Equally, if it’s not your day, allow yourself that extra child’s pose instead of a down dog to rest and not feel guilty about it. Make your practice your own.

It doesn’t matter how tough life gets, how challenging work or relationships can get. Yoga is always there to help me come home to myself and my truth. It also reminds me not to seek anything outside of myself and it’s all already there. Love, empathy, passion. Yoga helps me be me and speak from the best part of me. My kind of yoga helps me with healing from physical and emotional vulnerability from when I was younger and a bit lost. With a strong and dynamic practice, my confidence in my body grew, and with this, my sense of trust in the world.

I would like to invite you to share your practice with me. Yoga really is a never ending journey of exploration. Every day is different and similarly every time you meet yourself on the mat, you’re a different person and your practice will be different.

I mainly teach various Vinyasa flows with strong elements inspired by Ashtanga. I have a 200 hour certification and have trained in Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin and Restorative Yoga.
