Hello, I'm Suze.

​

I am a yoga teacher and Thai yoga massage therapist based in Oxfordshire, UK, teaching Vinyasa, Slow Flow, Restorative, and Aerial yoga classes and private sessions. I offer Thai massage from my home or in the comfort of your home.

​

As a yoga teacher I consider myself to be a guide. I aim to create a safe space and an opportunity for you to look within, re-focus, regain a sometimes lost sense of perspective, and become your own teacher. I encourage self-awareness and self-enquiry within the planned structure of the sessions. When you take responsibility for your own physical and mental wellbeing through regular practice, you will realise that it is not about picture-perfect poses, but about finding your essence along the way. We need will and a lot of courage to open up and shed the layers upon layers of conditioning, thought - and behavioural patterns, to find out who we truly are. This is available and accessible to us all, regardless of the level of practice, age, or any restrictions we put on ourselves.

​

With a background in dance, capoeira and as a fitness professional, when I first began practising yoga, my main focus was on the well-being of the physical body. However, regular yoga practice showed me that the physical benefits were only a small, but important, part of the impact Yoga had on me.

​

Through self-study I found that life’s experiences can really get stuck and ‘calcify’ in the nooks and crannies of one’s body over the years. As the physical practice began to free my body, it brought an  understanding of the roots of the emotional baggage that had caused the blockage in the physical and energetic body.

My focus shifted to accommodate the importance of meditating and being present, and how getting to the bottom of thought and behavioural patterns, feelings and emotions, may also result in the release of tension in the physical body.

​

In all my sessions I encourage self-awareness and aim to create an environment where everybody can leave frustrations and competitiveness behind, be in tune with their ‘present’ body, and focus on the breath that has the incredible power of restoring body, mind and soul.

​

My Yoga training includes Vinyasa and Hot Power Yoga with Alessandro and Caroline Gozzi at YogaVenue, Oxford, Restorative Yoga with Anna Ashby at Triyoga London, Aerial Yoga with AerialYoga 360 and Children's Yoga with Christiane Kerr of Calm For Kids in London.

​

I have trained in the healing art of Thai yoga, pregnancy and foot massage with Kira Balaskas, the founder of The School of Thai Yoga Massage in London.
