Rebecca Ellis
I was introduced to Yoga & Meditation as a teenager in the 1970s and have been teaching since 2014. While I love the sense of strength, openness, and resilience, that a strong physical practice can offer, I’m increasingly astonished by the transformative power of more gentle and subtle approaches to bodywork, allowing a more intimate sensing of the body, the breath, and emotions and bringing an ease of being into the world. My classes draw on the influences of a range of body-mind practices – some thousands of years old, some contemporary – including Hatha Yoga, Yin-Restorative Yoga, Somatics, Feldenkrais & Yoga Nidra. I love to teach people of all ages and levels of experience in a way that encourages a deep inner listening with a sense of ease, pleasure and fun. Someone said to me once, Yoga is too sacred to be taken over seriously! – I am certified with the British Wheel of Yoga and iRest Yoga Nidra & am currently training in the Feldenkrais Method.
Will Medd
Will first began meditating as a student in his early 20s, learning mindfulness and loving kindness meditations. He then let it go and after a long gap, and revitalised by yoga practices, came back to meditation as an important practice to both navigate and celebrate all that life offers. He draws on various traditions and practices, informed by his own practice and interests as well as certification in teaching iRest Yoga Nidra Meditation and Mindfulness.
