Tara Copp- Barton

Yoga has been a constant in my life since I began practising with Mike Nevitt in 1997. It brings me moments of great peace and clarity in the crazy world in which we live. Physically it has sculpted and strengthened my body – mentally it has calmed my mind.
I have had the good fortune to train and learn from many great teachers including David Williams, Brian Cooper, Sharon Gannon and David Life. I teach from several traditions including Ashtanga Vinyasa, Jivamukti, Sivananda, Satyananda and Bihar. My classes consist of flowing sequences of physically demanding yoga postures. I also use breathing and deep relaxation techniques which help still the mind.
I also teach pregnancy yoga, mum and baby post – natal yoga, yoga for fertility, and children's yoga (age 0-16.) I am also a fully trained masseuse – Swedish, sports, pregnancy and children's peer massage

Laura Bell

The first ever yoga class I attended, I was the youngest by about 50 years. I was 18 & had just returned from travelling round the world. Whilst in Australia I broke my back in a boating accident and was unsure whether I would walk again, but for some reason I was a lucky one and walked out of hospital six weeks later. Having been a fit, active, character up until my accident I was saddened to hear that the only form of exercise I was allowed to undertake was yoga. It was to strengthen my muscles without straining my back and body, yet still providing me with a physical form of activity. I started off learning a very slow form of yoga but as my body healed it wanted to be challenged more and more, and that is when I discovered Ashtanga Yoga.
That was all ten years ago and I have been teaching now in North Wales for five years, both adults and children. I could talk forever about the benefits that yoga has brought to me, confidence, energy, enthusiasm and an ever increasing physically fit body. The only way to experience yoga is just to begin and continue to practise, until eventually with patience you will attain the unattainable.
