Yoga Teachers - Jacqui*
I became involved in yoga in Spain in 1988. Between 1996 and 1999 I trained in Iyengar yoga and taught in Namibia, Southern Africa. Since then I have been teaching in London. In 2004 I completed a four-year Aurolab teacher training with Sama Fabian. This integrative yoga incorporates all aspects of classical yoga and brings the spiritual into our practice. We focus on individual Asana, Vinyasa, structural alignment, refining mental and emotional patterns, relaxation and meditation. I also have seven years experience in teaching yoga for children.
Emerging from my 27 years of practicing and studying the art of yoga asana, pranayama and the meditative state, is how natural it is to be present, humble, content and fulfilled by simplicity. Once we connect, zoom out and free fall into the bigger picture of life as a part of the universal energy that is, much strife and 'need for more' wanes.
I owe many thanks to my teachers and friends. Angelika who has shared her depth of knowledge and supported me all the way. Sama Fabian who founded and directed Aurolab 2000 Yoga Project. Dona Holleman who continues to teach and inspire in many ways of wisdom. Maitreyavera who insisted on perfect alignment and the stillness of Iyengar Yoga. My friends. Oh and my son Tom, the best teacher of all!
I thank immensely all my friends and students of Yoga who attend my classes to practice. Each class I learn more and sincerely hope that you do too.
