I first met Monika in 2018, when I regularly attended her vinyasa flow classes on a Saturday, I have since also attended online classes during covid, restorative workshops and weekend retreats both I summer and autumn. She provides a variety of yoga classes through the week, all with the student at the centre of what she does, each session clearly describing its desired intentions, making use of props and modifications if needed.
Monika provides clear instruction and guidance throughout classes, explaining the benefits to different poses and breathing methods. I have had the pleasure of developing my yoga practice and becoming stronger, more flexible and calmer of mind through Monika’s direction. I have also been supported by Monika to recognise my physical limitation following an accident and episodes of ill health but have found I have been able to participate as she provided personalised advice to enable me to work with the group. She is a keen learner and regularly supports her students by sharing her knowledge to their benefit. Monika is kind, considerate and a motivator of others which is demonstrated in her approach. With all this in mind, her yoga classes are accessible to all, a good balance of direction and humour and why I keep returning time and time again.
