Zoë Martin

 

After graduating (in Fashion and Printed Textile design) from Northumbria University,

Newcastle in 1998, I moved to London and worked as a designer, it was at this time

that I began to attend yoga classes. With the help of a wonderful teacher, Jyoti, my

passion for yoga was ignited.

 

Originally training with the Sivananda School, my love for yoga has drawn me to study

and practice different forms and traditions. 

 

My style of teaching is now informed by my experience of Vinyasa Krama Yoga as taught

by Srivatsa Ramaswami and the yoga teachings of T.K.V Desikachar as taught to

Paul Harvey, Bristol.

 

I have studied yoga with both Srivatsa Ramaswami and T.K.V Desikachar and chant with

Menaka Desikachar. I continue to study with leading UK teacher Paul Harvey and on a

one - one basis with my personal teacher Janet Evans, London.

 

I encourages those who study with me to build on or develop their own authentic

yoga practice through the practice of Asana, Pranayama, Meditation and Chant.

 

My group classes focus on, slow organic sequences of postures combined with long held

postures, concentration and breathing techniques and simple chant to increase

inner awareness and ultimately a calm, focused, tranquil mind.

 

My teaching experience is diverse ranging from group classes, one to one work,

pregnancy yoga, workshops and retreats and more recently in the field of mental health

.

Zoë is a certified yoga, meditation and pregnancy yoga teacher.
