Testimonials

I have been on the most incredible journey with Brigitte and have been honoured to learn from her and with her. She teaches from her heart and her reality, this has inspired me to make my own journey into teaching knowing, from her example, that I can be a real person and a yoga teacher. Read more

I have been practicing yoga with Brigitte for a number of years and have also been lucky enough to join her on several retreats. Brigitte is an inspiring and knowledgeable teacher, her enthusiasm is contagious. She is one of those charismatic people who have the rare quality of creating an atmosphere of self belief and trust. I began practicing yoga following a devastating period in my life when I lost someone very dear to me. In addition to this I work with children who have experienced extreme loss and trauma. The work can leave me feeling sad and empty at times. On my journey to experience and learn yoga I had a desire to build physical strength and flexibility. Whilst this began to take … Read more

I have been on 3 retreats with Brigitte, and loved every moment of each one. The yoga is a combination of challenging, fun and deeply relaxing, and Brigitte as a teacher is warm, funny and extremely knowledgeable. On each retreat there was a fabulous group dynamic, and I put this down to Brigitte’s ability to foster a special ‘family’ feeling for the duration. I am already looking for the next one to book!

Brigitte’s Yoga Retreats can be summed up in one word ‘Bliss’.  Everything is so well organised and there is a healthy mix of less experienced yogis, seasoned yogi’s and yoga teachers (there for their own holiday, not to teach). There is always just the right blend of yoga and recreation. I always return refreshed in both mind and body. That at least half of the yogis had been on Brigitte’s retreats many times previously says it all. Read more

I stumbled across Brigitte’s yoga class about 9 years ago and accidentally embarked on an entirely wonderful and ongoing journey. I turned up to improve my fitness and flexibility; I got and keep getting so much more. Brigitte delivers a rare blend of in-depth knowledge body mechanics and spiritual integrity, delivered in a down-to-earth and warm way. Through Brigitte, I realised that the point of yoga is not to be able to tie yourself in knots but to learn how to navigate life in a healthy and happy way. The physical transformation is a welcome side effect compared to the real benefits of her teaching. On my mat, I learnt that how noisy my habitual thoughts are when meeting challenge.

I started to practice yoga with Brigitte in 2008 and put simply, it has had a profoundly positive effect on my life to the extent that I am now a yoga teacher myself. If I am able to impart a tenth of the inspiration, hope and joy in my own students as she has in me, then I know that I’m on the right track. Read more

Brigitte is an amazing teacher! Full of fun, experience and compassion. Her classes flow, they give me strength, confidence, they are fun although sometimes challenging, which always keeps me coming back. I’m so happy that I was  introduced to yoga by Brigitte. I also attended a retreat that she organized in Italy and made some great new friends, we laughed so much and had a most inspiring yoga experience. I will definitely go on another retreat with Brigitte…. I Love Yoga! Thank you Brigitte. Read more

Brigitte’s classes are inspiring and profoundly moving, the perspective that she brings is one that always resonates on a deep level with me. The flowing commentary, instruction and spiritual reflections are simply beautiful. There is something hypnotic about her classes because the physical and mental focus are entwined to support each other. Brigitte has a soothing reassuring warmth in her voice conveying expression and real clarity, which gives me clarity over the minor tribulations in my every day life. I continually feel a freshness, depth and new energy to my own practice now, as what I have learned comes back to me in little realisations every now and again. Through Brigitte’s teachi… Read more

I started yoga with Brigitte about 3 years ago and she has introduced me to a wealth of different yoga styles allowing me space to grow and develop in my practice. She is a very senior yoga teacher and is able to offer a very safe environment and ensures the classes are inclusive for all levels adapting her class and styles to the audience. Brigitte works with very creative sequencing to always bring something new to class. She offers yoga beyond the asana working very closely with the breath and incorporating meditation and pranayama into her classes allowing you to not just work our but also work in. Brigitte also regularly attends training’s to ensure she is up to date with the latest dev… Read more
Brigitte is one of those unique teachers who is always growing herself through practise, training and experience and manages to synthesise these facets into understandable practises and philosophy for her students. She is an inspirational teacher and writer, helping me push my personal boundaries. She has also helped me rebuild post various injuries and surgeries over the last few years, yet manages to keep the experience fun and challenging, hence the reason I always come back. Her retreats are exceptional and the fact that she cares about you as a person too, shines through everything she does. I could not recommend Brigitte more highly. Read more
