About the teacher
Jane has been practising and studying yoga for 16 years and teaching for 10. She originally trained as a teacher whilst living in Spain,
and on her return to the UK set up Yogaspace and subsequently Manchester Yoga Shala, a collective of teachers committed to bringing
authentic yoga to those who may not ordinarily have access to it.She has studied with a number of inspiring teachers over the years ,
including Paul Grilley, Sarah Powers, Jai Uttal and most notably Donna Farhi with whom she completed advanced teacher training in 2005.

She has most recently been studying with AG Mohan and his wife Indra in India, after many years of being strongly influenced by
their work, she finally experienced their incredible clarity and authenticity first hand and continues to put into practice
what she has learnt with them. Theirs is the yoga of Sri Krishnamacharya via the Yoga sutras of Bhagavan Patanjali.
It teaches a simple and accessible practice which can be applied to the individual for peace of mind and healthy body.
Everyone can practice this form of yoga and the emphasis on individual practice means it is particularly useful in a therapeutic context.

She is also currently undergoing ongoing training in Ayurveda under the auspices of Robert Svoboda and the Ayurvedic Institute
of Albuquerque. She has also spent time in India studying and training in therapeutic treatments..Ayurveda supports the journey
towards health and peace and along with Yoga is a powerful system of returning body and mind to a balanced state.

Janes teaching is rooted in the compassionate wisdom of the sutras and she passes on the teachings in a gentle ,supportive way allowing
each individual space to experience the practices in their own time.She welcomes everyone to her classes especially those with pre existing
medical conditions, physical or mental.
