"I love that every week is different. By preparing something different each week Naomi show's both a command of her subject and a commitment to teaching, which in turn inspires trust and commitment in me. While there's always movement and action, Naomi makes and takes time to explain and demonstrate - presenting a range of options and offering a way for me to work within the range of my own ability.
One of the best things about her is that she knows who we are; all our names and our individual challenges, interests and difficulties. But beyond that hasn't forgotten who she was before yoga, which is why she's so well-suited to showing us the way. Naomi's style has a humanizing effect on what can sometimes seem remote. Most importantly - and I think this is rare - it actually seems to matter to her that we develop our practice. With my headstand phobia, for example she pops up in front of me every week and I'm never pleased to see her and I generally wish she'd go haunt someone else! But in actual fact, I'm really grateful. We both know it's something I need to address. She's the only teacher I've allowed to haul me up against my will! Naomi takes her teaching seriously but it's not stiff and humourless - her classes are somewhere you want to be."
"Naomi's Yoga classes have honestly changed my life and I cannot stop talking about the benefits to my family and friends. I get a great sense of accomplishment from each class and the positivity, peace and calm gained is carried into my day to day life. Naomi is a very gifted, passionate and deeply committed teacher and she makes you feel comfortable and at ease. I really look forward to going to Yoga every week and feel an overall greater sense of well being, physically, mentally and spiritually. Naomi has a unique delivery style and adds variety into her classes so you always walk out learning something new. I believe that with Yoga in your life you can really shine from the inside. "

"Naomi's yoga class is the perfect way to start my week! The class is challenging and engaging and I seem to learn something new every week. Her patient and encouraging teaching style is perfect and she adopts a very personal approach to each student, enabling us to safely push our boundaries further than maybe we would naturally. She is a fantastic teacher and I thoroughly enjoy her classes!"
"Practicing yoga with Naomi is like breathing air; it is essential to me. Naomi is a dynamic and adept Guru. Each lesson is challenging fun and different so that I am pushed beyond my personal limitations and expectations."

"I really look forward to my classes with Naomi, it feels like she takes the time to really get to know what your body is capable of and when to push you to work harder or pull you back. It's the perfect destresser and you are guaranteed to get a good nights sleep after the class! Thanks!"

"I have been attending Naomi's class for a while now and always enjoy her style and class structure. Naomi is great at working different levels within the class, encouraging people to go further if they feel they can or take a step back if they need to. Her teaching has really helped me to focus more on some of the deeper aspects of yoga that I sometimes overlook - its sometimes easy to forget to find the stillness within a posture and Naomi always talks about focusing on the breath and the moments of stillness. I'm looking forward to continuing my yoga journey with Naomi and am really pleased I discovered her as a teacher".
"We were recommended Naomi as a yoga teacher to come to our office once a week. The classes are really fun and very varied and at the end of the session the feeling is of sheer bliss and relaxation! I always find that I have such a better day afterwards - I'm able to think more cleary and have a real sense of well being."
