EmPower Yoga offers yoga classes for all across the Birmingham area, whether you are new to yoga or have an established practice. Anna has been teaching in Birmingham since June 2015, and is trained in Sun Power Yoga by Leicester based teacher trainer Anne-Marie Newland. Sun Power Yoga is a unique blend of four different styles of yoga: Hatha yoga for theory, philosophy and asana, Iyengar for alig
nment and posture, Sivananda for mind and breath work, and Astanga yoga for building heat, flexibility and stamina. Anna aims to bring each of these aspects into all of her classes, offering a holistic yoga experience. With six years' experience working in the domestic violence sector, Anna also combines her teachings of Sun Power Yoga with her passion for working with people, and her professional understanding of the effects of trauma and loss. Her teaching is for all, but she has a particular interest in using yoga as a means of bringing about empowerment; combining mind, breath and body work to aid a deeper understanding and acceptance of who we are. Anna has so far offered tailored group or one to one classes to a variety of people and organisations, including Birmingham LGBT, Trans and Gender non-conforming Swimming groups (TAGS), and Crisis Skylight Birmingham. If you or someone you know would like support to access yoga but don't feel ready to access a public class then please contact Anna for more information about private sessions. Anna is also qualified to teach Aqua Yoga classes - more info available on request.
