“I have known Alexa for nearly three years when she took over teaching a class I was attending. As I was relatively new to Yoga, Alexa’s method of teaching really suited me. I continued my practice with her and joined her on her retreat in Sri Lanka. As I had a long-standing back problem she suggested doing some 1-2-1 Therapeutic and restorative sessions with her which helped not only physically but mentally with how to manage my problem. My interest in Yoga deepened and I started learning a programme with her which has led me, with her guidance, to starting my next yoga journey - Yoga Teacher Training. I would recommend Alexa to anyone at any stage of their Yoga journey!”

“I started with Alexa in October 2009 after I was discharged by my physiotherapist for treatment of a slipped disk. At this stage I was unable to stand for periods longer than a couple of minutes, I was unable to bend down even to tie my shoes...I was very anxious for my first session as I did not think that I would be able to do any of the asanas and thought I would be in a lot of pain. Imagine to my surprise that by the end of the very first exercise I was able to touch my toe. I was so overcome with emotion I could not believe how easy Alexa made this for me. I haven’t looked back since and have gone from strength to strength. Yoga provides me with the ability to cope with my back illness as I work with Alexa to aid my recovery. One thing Yoga has taught me is how to listen to my body knowing when to slow down and when to use the energy I have gained through my practice effectively and not to burn out and exhaust myself. If anyone is not sure if Yoga is right for them, give it a try, it will work for you on some level as long as you’re able to see it as more than just exercise.”
