- Qualified Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga Teacher - 30+ years experience in Movement, Dance and Physical Performance - Brighton & Hove

I have taken yoga classes with Jo for nearly ten years, and what sets her apart is her attention to detail. From setting up the breath, to ensuring proper posture and alignment, every element of the class is truly a masterclass in yogic practice, while her sense of humour adds a touch of lightness.

Jo guides her students in and out of poses using simple, accessible language rather than relying on strict, memorized scripts. She has great anatomical knowledge and understanding of body movement. This means she knows when to modify poses to accommodate those with less flexibility or temporary soreness.

I love her classes; they flow logically and involve all of your body, whether that be from warming up with breath work, energizing through poses or sequences, or working the face and throat with some chanting. All nicely wrapped up with some cooling down to finish.

Jo is a warm, thoughtful and enthusiastic yoga teacher and I couldn't recommend her enough. I've been to her classes on and off for a number of years and there's always something different, deeper, more connected about her practice than other classes I've been to. Her instruction is excellent - clear, calm, and dynamic when it needs to be, perfectly balancing meditative and flowing elements of her practice. She is mindful of everyone's needs, whether that be injuries, abilities, and even mental vibes that day. Somehow in a room of people Jo manages to deliver yoga that seems tailor made for me - and everyone else there.

Joanna has been my yoga and fitness instructor for about 10 years and is honestly one of the best teachers I have ever worked with. Jo really understands the human body and knows how to support healthy, impactful movement that meets you exactly where you're at, while adding just enough challenge to expand your ability. She's warm, caring, intuitive and a lot of fun. You will enjoy every moment of a session with Jo and come away feeling that you've grown in exactly the right way. Try out a session - you won't regret it.
