Helen is passionate about showing others how to use Yoga to keep healthy and active, helping us step away from our manic modern lifestyles and reconnect with who we are and the world we live in. She qualified in the UK in 2013, is a member of Yoga Alliance RYT200, and enjoys teaching Seasonal Vinyasa Flow and Hatha yoga to people of all abilities.
