In his Words

Hi. I’m Rich. I'm a newly qualified Yoga teacher who is just happy to be along for the ride. I came to yoga late in life, at 50, and was amazed by the physical benefits that it brought. After a few years of practicing, life events took a change and I thought, well if not now then when? So I took myself off to Bali and completed my 200hr Vinyasa Yoga teacher training. The experience was profound, you learn a lot about yourself when you practice all day everyday and I loved it. So here I am doing what I can to  practice with people in this great Yoga community.

Credentials

I qualified with  East + West Yoga,  completing my 200hr YTT in January of 2024. I love a hot, physical Vinyasa class with a solid Svasana, the kind of practice that leaves your body energised and your mind awakened! 

I practice for many reasons not least the health benefits, like many of us, my lower back was in very a sorry state from sitting constantly at a desk, Yoga honestly changed that and I can see the benefits for my physical health later into life. Yoga also gives me a sense of calm and stability that I appreciate in this crazy modern world and then there’s the community of people that are simply great to know.

Rich Loves

I retired from a 30 year career and started a general photography business. I enjoy meeting people and providing a service to others so it’s a good fit for me and it keeps me busy. I have two children who I love dearly and I spend as much time as I can with them. When I get the chance I travel for experience I like nothing better than getting on a plane and heading off on an adventure.

Rich’s Fav Quote/Inspo

Enjoy what you have as long as it is present in your life. When it's time to let it go, let it go with gratitude and then continue on your journey. (Vijeth Kumar)
