My son and I have been attending weekly class for several months now and could not have been more impressed with Shama’s (Sara’s) abilities as a yoga teacher. Her own mastery of the ‘art’ is extremely impressive, not only that her deeper understanding of the philosophy etc behind it and the part it plays in her life are very noticeable. At the same time, she is astonishingly humble about her own yoga abilities and her students are very clearly the most important thing in the room during a session. She spends time with each one of us, giving advice and alternatives to allow everyone to access it at their own level. As a complete beginner with no innate talent whatsoever (if I’m honest I was beginning to seize up, hence my initial interest!) I have never once felt self-conscious in the class, but on a number of occasions I have been completely amazed by what my body can physically do, both during lessons and in day to day life as a result. The holistic design of the sessions means that as well as a physical side with warm up, stretching, use of many different muscles etc you also finish with a terrific sense of relaxation and sleep really well as result. Shama is the ‘real deal’ and it would not occur to us to go anywhere else.
