Teachers at the Yoga Sanctuary
 

Steve: Having set off in his teens as a young traveller, Steve arrived in the Himalayan foothills at the age of 23, where he experienced a life-changing encounter with a Yoga Master. The transmission of energy that followed triggered an on-going inner transformation, but it was to take three further years of intensive daily Yoga practice, along with the priceless guidance of a number of Yoga adepts, for Steve to begin to embody the experience and teaching he had received. Seventeen years of daily practice and full-time teaching later, Steve is the founder of the Yoga Sanctuary and a blossoming community of Yogis in Southampton and worldwide. He lives with his wife Sarah and their three daughters, endeavouring to infuse the universal and timeless principles of Yoga into a busy modern-day family life.

Sarah: began her Yoga journey at the Sanctuary 15 years ago, completing her basic and advanced Teacher Training before becoming co-director of the Yoga Sanctuary in 2009. Whilst bringing her three daughters into the world, Sarah specialised in pregnancy and post-natal Yoga and has gone on to offer workshops and courses on women's wellbeing and the deeper understanding of the menstrual cycle for women's emotional and spiritual empowerment. Sarah is at the heart of the Yoga Sanctuary supporting Steve in all aspects of the teaching work as well as offering Yoga in the wider community through schools and charities. 

 

Elliot: is a dedicated practitioner of Living Yoga as well as being a writer, therapist and Yoga teacher. Elliot has a wide ranging experience of life; from serving in the military to working with the young homeless, and more recently people living with cancer. His varied and real-world background means his teaching has an earthy authenticity that brings the teachings of Living Yoga to life for all those who share classes with him.
