Yoga and Meditation Client Testimonials
I have had three one to one yoga sessions with Christine. Christine has a very professional approach. She ensured my comfort by adapting the positions as necessary to accommodate some limitations in my mobility due to osteoarthritis which was extremely helpful. Christine gave clear explanations at all times. The sessions were all well prepared and I felt relaxed as well as invigorated after each one. I’m now looking forward to the next one.

I cannot thank Christine enough for introducing me to Anusara yoga and Nidra meditation. Having never done any type of yoga before and enjoying cardio workouts I wasn't sure I would get the same kick out of this form of exercise. I was wrong. Christine puts together a great balanced program, explaining the positions well from basic to the more challenging allowing you to challenge yourself further if you wish. The restorative yoga class with Nidra meditation is especially relaxing and between the two they have certainly enhanced my feeling of well being. I am so happy to have such a fabulous yoga teacher and really enjoy the one-on-one and small group sessions. I would highly recommend.

Christine takes great care in setting up a serene atmosphere in which to practice, with music and candles and eye masks at the end to relax. Her communication is clear and precise and she takes care to ensure you are in the correct position at all times. She is also responsive to any questions about posture, breathing techniques etc. As well as encouraging me to push myself with, the exercises she also ensured that my basic postures were correct, explaining the reasons at all times. I would recommend her classes for beginners as well as those who have been practicing yoga for a while.

Yoga was always something that I didn't think I could do but Christine has tailored the sessions specifically to suit me and my level of ability.I already feel more confident and able to tackle the exercises. Every week she introduces new things so the sessions are extremely engaging, enjoyable and fun.

I have participated in several restorative yoga sessions given by Christine. They are always wonderfully relaxing and calming, and I come away feeling completely refreshed, both physically and mentally. She is always very well prepared – creating the perfect physical environment for relaxation, and putting considerable thought into planning the programme for the session. I highly recommend her yoga classes.

I have attended a number of Christine’s Restorative Yoga classes. Christine is always well prepared and takes care in setting up the room ready for the class. She creates a serene atmosphere with candles and music. Christine’s communication is clear and calm which enables one to relax and really enjoy the session. She has a very professional approach and will adapt a position for a person’s ability. I would highly recommend Christine’s yoga for beginners and those who are experienced.

I have been doing the Gentle Flow Yoga classes with Christine for a few months. Christine makes it a truly holistic experience- candles, aromatherapy essential oils, often bringing in a bit of yogic philosophy or just some poetry or profound thoughts for the mind and soul! She is very attentive to the needs of the class (students have different levels of experience but most are regulars and you have to be quick to book a space!), supportive, not judging, and we leave the class refreshed and inspired

Christine’s mindfulness meditations and breathing exercises are the perfect
antidote to stress. She is highly professional, and her voice is incredibly calming and soothing. The sessions have had a really positive and demonstrable impact on my mood and general well-being.

Christine's soothing voice and Mini Mindful Meditations What's App group provide a great opportunity for time out of our busy lives. The breathing exercises and thought provoking ideas offer a chance for calmness and reflection. I always finish feeling better.

Kirstie, Woking (May, 2020)
Christine's online and face-to-face yoga classes have been invaluable to me during this lockdown period. Both body and mind have benefited so much. The classes are structured really well and Christine’s teaching technique is brilliant. Would definitely recommend!
Sue, Guildford (May 2020)
Thanks for providing me with some lovely yoga sessions during these strange times. I have really enjoyed it and found it really calming.
Michelle, Guildford (July 2020)
I have been doing Christine’s gentle flow yoga for just over a year, first in a Club and then recently via Zoom. Her classes are always thoroughly planned, often with a theme, and the poses are demonstrated with options for varying ability. Christine has developed a wonderful teaching style. Her instructions are clear and her manner is gentle; after the hour I feel stretched, relaxed and happy. She cares a lot about her students’ experience, and in normal lessons will use candles, oils and music to enhance our experience. Her class is one of the highlights of my week.
Claire, Cranleigh (July, 2020)
Christine has been teaching me yoga for over a year, starting as a complete beginner with a long term neurological condition. She is a fantastic teacher, with a thirst for learning every aspect of yoga, which she passes onto her students with new sequences and poses every session. She is mindful of everyones wellbeing and physical needs and injuries , tailoring sessions accordingly. She has a calm, instructive delivery which guides you through every pose and often gives a rationale for the pose and its benefits. I can't recommend her highly enough.
Kirstie, Billingshurst (July, 2020)
I've just completed a Meditation consultation course with Christine and it was exactly what I was looking for. She knows her subject well and imparts it in layman terms so that I have been able to take it into my everyday life. I now have the skills to take my meditation practice further and that is due to her friendly, relatable approach. The review session was a lovely touch. Highly recommended.
Suzannah, Watford (August 2020)
I have attended a number of Christine's classes during lockdown. Online classes have been invaluable during this difficult time and have helped me both in mind and body. Christine's classes are well structured, enjoyable and relaxing. The classes provide a time for calmness and reflection as well as exercising the body. Highly recommended.
Katherine, Surrey (March, 2021)
Christine has developed into a a very competent and thoughtful teacher. During the last 18 months I have attended her zoom classes which have been extremely well organised and helped to take ones mind of the pandemic and its consequences. Her classes are well organised and varied with new ideas each week. She settles the class, explains the theme and the benefits of the session. Her demonstrations give options to suit all ages and abilities with frequent input regarding ones own ability and personal safety. Her style is very calming with the right balance of fun and learning.
