San Yoga UK

San Yoga UK Welcome and Namaste! I am Sangeeta, yoga teacher and retreat host. The course was intense learning from 7.30am to 9.30pm daily.

On this page you will find details of my local hatha yoga classes for beginners and improvers and details of upcoming Yoga and Wellness Retreats in the UK and abroad. Practicing yoga has been my driving passion for many years now and becoming a hatha yoga teacher trainer has been an aspiration of mine for the past few years. My vision is to share a yogic lifestyle with a community so they too can explore and experience the tremendous connection of mind-body-breath benefits of this ancient practice which is more than 4000 years old. In mid 2020 following the start of the global COVID-19 crisis I started to think more about a career change and follow what I can only describe as 'a calling' to take my practice of yoga to the next level. In July 2020 I decided to take that big break from a more than 20 year career in a large multi-national pharmaceutical company as a clinical scientist in new medicines development and follow my passion of becoming a yoga teacher. After many months of searching for a reputable yoga teacher training school I contacted a yoga teacher of mine from many years ago, who incidentally first evoked the 'light' of yoga in me! She suggested I search on the Independent Yoga Network website as it is amongst two, the other one being the British Wheel of Yoga, governing bodies in the UK. She stated that any courses/schools that are advertised under either of these two umbrellas will be a recognised and accredited qualification accepted in the UK and Europe. I was looking to hold a qualification that is UK recognised and covered by insurance both here and internationally. I contacted a couple of international yoga teaching schools and the one that grabbed at my heart-mind strings the most was Bodhi Yoga in Spain. Following a video call with Sadhita and Sudaka, the co-founders of the school, I instantly felt connected and had that ‘gut’ feeling that the Bodhi yoga 300hr YTT was the one for me. I enrolled on to the course in October 2020 along with a small group of other aspiring yoga students and after on-line 5-day foundation part of the course, meditation workshops and a couple of upper and lower body yoga weekend workshops I finally arrived in stunning Suryvana on the 1st October 2021 for the residential 2 weeks part of the course. I was struck by the breath-taking beautiful location of the retreat centre amongst the rolling Spanish hills and lush countryside near Valencia. Sudaka and Sadhita’s style is very structured, thorough with a running meditative theme of mindfulness throughout the course. I loved their very considered step by step approach (also referred to as ‘Vinyasa Krama’) in taking us progressively through how to teach 11 main groups of yoga poses. In addition what I found really helpful was the daily posture analysis and the invaluable practice of class-room teaching! The latter in my opinion is fundamental in building your confidence to becoming a good yoga teacher! I am truly grateful to Sadhita and Sudaka for all that I learnt and explored during the almost a year’s duration mix of on-line and residential course. My heart/mind will always closely hold the very fond memories of my time in beautiful Suryvana amongst the loveliest of people I have come across. I hope to return to Suryvana and Bodhiyoga soon for retreats and further learning and even to the Valencia region to follow my vision and hope of setting up my own yoga school somewhere around there in the not too distant future. In the meantime I want to share the benefits of yoga through offering beginners hatha yoga classes to those that would like to explore the many mind and body benefits of yoga within my local community. I am grateful to begin this exciting journey with those who join me🙏

Starting next Thursday, 24th July, from 5:45 to 6:45pm (note the slightly adjusted time), I’ll be resuming my yoga classes at the Hedgerley Memorial Centre.

This next six-week course will focus on therapeutic yoga for spine health, integrated within a holistic Hatha yoga practice. The sessions aim to support better postural alignment, while incorporating mindfulness and pranayama(breathwork).

Having completed additional therapeutic yoga training around 18 months ago—and drawing on my own recent recovery journey from a spinal/low back injury—I'll be teaching from both professional knowledge and personal experience.

I hope to see you there, Sangeeta

Join my next session of yoga classes on Thursdays from 27th February, 5.30 to 6.30pm at the Hedgerley Memorial Hall. See the flyer below for details.

My teaching style incorporates a mix of Hatha, Vinyasa flow and Yin Yoga.

The goal of my classes is not to have a super flexible, bendy body but more the invitation to improve flexibility, balance, strength of both the mind and body with a regular yoga practice which embraces awareness and mindfulness.

My classes are suitable for absolute beginners as well as improvers and anyone who would like to practice yoga regularly.

These are a few types of physical practice of yoga or asanas. There are many more including Iyengar, Kundalini, Yin, Restorative, Bikram, and even some strange ones such as Goat Yoga!🧘‍♂️

While many people think of yoga as physical stretching exercises, it is much more than that. The 8 ‘limbs of yoga’ described in ancient texts include instruction on personal behaviour and ethics, focus, concentration, meditation and samadhi or connection with a higher power.

For me, yoga is simply a structured, scientific framework which brings harmony between mind, body and spirit.

What I love about yoga is that it is not a religion nor is it attached to a belief system or community. It is more a spiritual discipline. Anyone who practices it can access its benefits, irrespective of one’s faith, ethnicity, or culture.

Research and scientific studies have demonstrated its many advantages for physical and mental health but I believe, the goal of a regular yoga practice is to reach deeper to that inner well-being.
