Biography
I first practiced yoga and meditation with my Indian step mum when I was 10 years old and have nurtured a fascination and appetite for an alternative/ holistic lifestyle ever since! I completed a 4 year BA Hons Degree in East Asian Studies at Leeds University (including a magical year studying in China ) in 1998 after which I moved into the media world. After 8 years of glamour, parties and stress, I yearned for the harmony and balance I had experienced all those years ago and as if coming full circle I found Yoga again (or yoga found me!) I have practiced for the last 10 years, completing my training with a wonderful and highly inspirational teacher, Rebecca Parker. I have also trained and gained inspiration practicing in LA with Bryan Kest, Steven Earth and Shiva Rea to name a few.
Rachel’s Classes
Vinyasa Flow (with music!)
Vinyasa means the exact synchronization of breath and movement. A Vinyasa Flow class weaves together a creative sequence of postures, including sun salutations (warming), standing postures (stabilizing), forward bends (introspective) back bends (invigorating) and twists (cleansing) linked together by the thread of the breath, gradually warming the body, stretching muscles and opening the joints and finally concluding in stillness and deep relaxation (savasana).
