Yoga with Tansy provides an ideal setting for those new to yoga, those looking to revisit the fundamentals and those who are ready to progress their practice. Classes focus on healthy alignment principles and emphasise the importance of a deep and relaxed breath from which yoga practice unfolds.

Tansy has practiced yoga for 20 years and completed her Teacher Training in 2016 with Byron Yoga Centre in Australia. Highly commited to continuing professional development, Tansy continues to attend specialised modules of training both nationally and internationally.

Some of the many benefits of yoga include: increased strength, stability, balance and flexibility, a greater ability to cope with stress and an improvement in balance, posture and breathing. For athletes it can help to correct asymmetrical alignment and strength caused by repetitive movements and enhance physical and mental performance. No experience or flexibility is required to practice yoga - yoga is for everyone.
