Amanda Glover

Amanda teaches Vinyasa Flow and Yin classes at Complete Yoga and believes that all yoga should be taught in a relaxed, safe and fun way. She offers a complementary mix of vinyasa flow with the precision of Iyengar for alignment – along with a contemplative, breath-centred practice. Amanda’s Yin classes are deeply relaxing, helping you learn how to step out of the thinking mind and into the body, taking you on a meditative journey into each pose, using bolsters, bricks and blocks to allow everyone to access all the poses and let go of physical and mental tension.

In a supportive, compassionate environment each student is able to develop at their own pace, while Amanda’s integrated blend of all of her training creates classes suited for all levels.

This wealth of experience has given her the ability to adapt and tailor her teaching to a wide range of people with varied requirements and in different yoga environments.

One of her corporate students says: “Amanda’s yoga classes are some of the most beneficial I’ve ever taken. They’ve really helped me reduce my discomfort and relax the stresses – both physical and psychological – of a desk-based life.”

Amanda adds: “It’s so rewarding to see students transform their lives through the practice of yoga”.

Jacqui has been practicing yoga for over 20 years. She was diagnosed with an auto-immune disorder causing extreme stiffness and pain in the muscles and joints.  She believes that yoga has saved her from becoming immobile, keeping her joints and muscles flexible and strong, allowing her to reduce the amount of medication prescribed.

This personal experience opened up a whole new awareness with yoga for Jacqui,  encouraging her to continue her studies and qualify in Accessible yoga. 

Jacqui continues to put all her energy into studying and following her passion to encourage everyone of all ages, shapes, sizes, health, ability and disability to discover the joy of true yoga.

Her yoga classes are tailored to meet the needs of her students while providing an environment for practitioners to feel empowered. She believes each person’s practice is unique and invites her students to come exactly as they are and celebrate their own abilities.
