Ellen has been practicing yoga daily since becoming a primary school teacher, over 20 years ago. She was initially drawn to the practice as a way to help her find calm and balance in a busy life. 

 

After becoming a mum, she took a leap of faith and decided to combine her two passions - yoga and working with children - by training to become a children’s yoga teacher. This journey has so far taken Ellen to teach yoga at The Dunkirk Refugee Children’s Centre and The World Yoga Festival. And, in 2019 she became qualified in Teen and Special Needs Yoga. 

 

In 2020 Ellen furthered her yoga knowledge by training with Universal Yoga, to enable her to spread peace and harmony in her community. She now teaches one-to-one yoga in the autistic unit of a Newbury secondary school, and organises adult classes locally.
