Welcome to Yoga on Avon, a place of peace, community and restoration for the soul
My name is Georges, I teach yoga offering both vinyasa flow classes and yoga nidra classes. I believe yoga is a restorative balm for the soul, it gives us the needed connection to our bodies and allows us to find the space to exist with ourselves. I teach so that I can share these with you and hopefully help you in some small way.
Having suffered with lower back issues since my late teens, they came to a debilitating point during covid, as I had put on quite a bit of weight in lockdown, my weakened muscles couldn’t support my impressive bulk any longer. Under advice from a wonderful GP I took up yoga and quickly found one of the most inspirational people I have had the pleasure of knowing. I quickly found yoga to be something I loved, I practiced hard and found my back issues were nearly gone. This amazing journey inspired me to become qualified as a teacher. Sadly during this program I re-injured my back and took some more time to recover, during which I fell in love with and learned to teach yoga nidra.
As a teacher I want to inspire people to love yoga as much as I do. I create classes that vary from simple and perfect for beginners to more intense flows for more experienced practitioners. I enjoy highly visual classes, trying to bring a theme to life in our minds through movement and meditation. I believe yoga is for everyone, and everyone can take something from the practice, whether it is a higher level of physical fitness or a deeper spiritual connection to yourself.
While I currently offer a small selection of classes as YOA grows I will be offering vinyasa flow classes and more in the future. I really hope to make yoga-on-avon a place in the community of Bradford-on-Avon, hoping that through shared peaceful practice we can build a community of wellbeing and kindness. I invite you to join me on this journey of restoration and community and hope our paths may cross.
