From the moment I started yoga I feel in love, practising nearly everyday since.  It seemed tohave everything that I needed when I didn't even know I was looking.  A physical workout with a mental nurturing.  A constant challenge with a natural ease.  A deep longing to know, understand and experience more of myself and relationship with others.  

Yoga inspires me, and I knew very quickly that I wanted to become a teacher and bring that energy to my classes. Inviting students to look deeper than the physical asanas, focus on their breath, and discover and explore the beautiful person within.

I made the pilgrimage to India and trained at the ‘Vinyasa School of Yoga’ Rishikesh, in Vinyasa & Hatha Yoga 200hrs, where I was immersed in the world of yoga for a full month. I then travelled for a further 5 months in India. This 6 months was life changing, an experience that taught and touched me greatly and spiritually.

With a background in the community sector I dream of one day combining yoga with mental health and disabilities. There are countless benefits and styles of yoga and I believe they should be available and experienced by all.

Come have some fun with me on the mat!

Rebecca's Experience at Sense of Space

Rebecca is a brand new client to Sense of Space, having only taken her very first class last month.  She stumbled across Sarah's class and has since been back every Friday morning without fail.  

"I first tried Yoga at Sense of Space a few weeks ago and immediately fell in love with the class that Sarah delivers on a Friday morning. The balance between Yoga teachings & stories, relaxation and breathing exercises, mindfulness, and Yoga poses that are fairly challenging for me is perfect. I always leave feeling really balanced, happy and ready to take on the day. I am in the middle of finding my own balance with rheumatoid arthritis and this Yoga class has been one of the only ones I have found that has been the right mix of relaxation and work. I can see that Sarah puts a lot of work in to the preparation of her classes and making sure they target everyday issues that we deal with- both mind and body. I am looking forward to trying some other classes at the studio."

Thank you so much Rebecca for sharing your feedback with us.  It means a great deal to us when our clients give us feedback.  We would love it if you could please take a minute to Rate Us on Facebook as this helps us a great deal in telling others about Sense of Space.

WHAT ARE MALA BEADS?
Mala beads are a set of beads that have traditionally been used in prayer and meditation.
You don't have to be religious or have any spiritual practice. You can simply wear them as a reminder of an intention you've set. And if you are seeking a calmer mind, body and spirit.

"Live your Dream,
set your Intention, 
manifest your Desire".

HOW TO USE MALA BEADS?
You can use your mala for meditation, mantra chanting, on your mat during your yoga practice to help you manifest your desires and to calm, regroup, heal and spiritually evolve into our best selves.

Firstly start with choosing your Mala by introspection. Look at the Mala, read the description find the one that resonates with you. This is why each Mala is unique as an individual expression of someone’s spirit. Each Mala comes with a description of its gemstones and beads and the qualities it embodies.

Then set your Intention.
