My name is Vikki Major and I have been teaching Yoga in Reading for 15 years. I qualified as a Yoga teacher after completing a three year course with the British Wheel of Yoga.
I teach open level classes with an emphasis on warming up appropriately and thoughtful sequencing. More often than not there will be a central theme woven through the class.
Yoga has, over time, been understood and defined in many ways. My classes tend to focus on alignment and the breath – offering the mind space to focus into what’s going on moment to moment. I often integrate forms, ideas and practises from other traditions, including mindfulness, Chinese medicine and Qigong, whilst also respecting the heritage and tradition of Yoga.
By practising Yoga we can expand our capacity for being more grounded, balanced and centred – at home in our bodies and our experiences. For me, (and this is what I try to share) the practice offers time to be with the body and the breath, through which an ease comes about. That then translates into our interactions and experiences off the mat.
