About ELM Yoga

I am very passionate about Yoga and Ayurveda, I try my best to dedicate my life to living this lifestyle as it has saved me from many of life's challenges over the years. My journey began from the experience of healing myself through Yoga and Ayurveda mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually.

I lived with severe anxiety, depression and burnout throughout most my life from a child into my late 20s,early 30s and I even felt suicidal at times. A few years back an NHS procedure went wrong and I had to have 6 operations to try fix the mistake but it only made things worse, Yoga and Ayurveda has helped me with pain management and healing after surgeries too. During my personal journey I felt an overwhelming urge to study Yoga and to know more about where it came from and how I could help others help themselves too.

ELM Yoga is a purpose family built yoga studio in Cornwall, with a fabulous view of St Austell bay. It offers safe and professional yoga classes suitable for all abilities/levels. It has a warm and friendly atmosphere bringing the community together :) The studio was built with love by family members and friends (no builders).

I know through my own personal journey how powerful and healing Yoga and Ayurveda are and to know that I’m now helping others transform their own lives and healing themselves through the practices and lifestyle of Yoga and Ayurveda is just a wonderful experience to be able to share and witness.

I am very grateful and excited to share much more :)
