Now a mother of 2 beautiful children, Hayley has returned to Dorset where she was born. Having travelled extensively in Southern India, where she got most of her  inspiration and brought her to carry out formal studies in London for three years to qualify for the Sivananda and British Wheel of Yoga Diploma. Hayley has developed a style of Yoga unique to her where she embraces both the styles of Hatha Yoga. Each of her class is fresh as she takes new approaches to the difficult classic postures.

Hayley has a great awareness to Breathing to create body and mind link ie how the mind influences the body and vice versa. Her mindfulness in movement makes her class very challenging, yet filled with laughter and fun. She starts her classes with basic postures and takes you through the preparations for difficult asanas (yoga postures) flowing from one into another, always being mindful of the breathing and always allowing to stay just within your limits and never forces you to do what your your body does not want to. There is always the gentle music that echoes and embraces the movements of the group.

Hayley's classes end up in deep relaxation, which everyone looks forward to after a hard session and to hear her  read a well chosen passage often relating to meditation or one that questions deeply the meaning of life. For those new to Yoga will find her very inspirational and helpful in understanding Yoga and listening to one's body.

Hayley offers both individuals and group classes at Alchemy.
