Accessible Yoga That Meets People Where They Are
I specialise in gentle, adaptive yoga for adults and children with disabilities, learning disabilities, additional needs and reduced mobility.
My sessions are calm, welcoming and designed to help every participant feel included and successful. Yoga does not have to mean getting onto the floor, performing complicated postures or keeping up with a fast-moving class. It can begin with a stable chair or wheelchair, a comfortable movement, a steady breath and the freedom to participate in your own way.
My weekly live online class, Gentle Chair Yoga for Adults with Learning Disabilities and Additional Needs, brings together accessible seated movement, Affirmations in Motion and a calming guided deep relaxation.
Individuals can join from home, and care homes, day centres, supported-living services and community organisations can participate together as a group.
Alongside my online adult classes, I continue to provide specialist yoga interventions in special schools, community settings and individual sessions.
With more than 25 years’ teaching experience and over 10 years specialising in yoga for people with disabilities and additional needs, I adapt every session to support movement, confidence, emotional regulation, relaxation and wellbeing.
My approach is simple: yoga should meet people exactly where they are and help every person feel safe, valued and included.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need any previous experience to join your classes
Not at all! The sessions are designed to be accessible and welcoming to all levels, including complete beginners. Whether you're new to yoga or returning after a break, you'll be supported every step of the way.
What if I have limited mobility or a specific condition?
That’s exactly who this yoga is for. All practices are adapted to suit individual needs—whether that’s physical, cognitive, emotional, or sensory. For adults with complex needs or conditions like epilepsy or who are non-verbal, a competent adult will need to be present during sessions.
Can I book private 1-to-1 sessions instead of joining a group class?
Yes! 1-to-1 therapeutic yoga is available for anyone who prefers individual attention—perfect for those seeking personal guidance, privacy, or specific support (such as plus-size yoga, anxiety relief, or postural help).
Is your yoga online or in-person?
Currently, all of my classes and coaching are delivered online via Zoom. This allows you or your loved one to join from the comfort of your own home, with no travel required. Just log in, breathe, and begin.
