ABOUT VICKY

The practice of yoga had been in my life since the year 2002. It was for me the same as most people who practice yoga something I did once a week that made me happy. I have to say this was the making of me to develop both physical and mental confidence. In 2015 I found the practice of Ashtanga Yoga. Again this was a huge milestone for me, as I got into the practice I felt like I was being reminded of something I had forgotten rather than learning something new. I saw similarities to the discipline of a martial art too. It pulled me deeper into the world of movement practice which I now do daily. Also I found exploring other types of yoga such as Vinyasa, (which is now the style I share the most), Rocket and Yin have only fuelled the passion I have for the process of self-enquiry. The teaching came about at a point in my life where something needed to change. I had worked for about 20 years in a job that didn't suit me, always feeling like a square peg being shoved into a round hole. I kind of knew that if I didn't do something pretty drastic to change my life there would be serious consequences. Another teacher planted the seed of teaching after a class ane day and eventually I took the step and did my training. I have been qualified since November 2019. So now every day I ask the question to myself and the universe "How can I best serve?"

Bridge Progress Check in.

I think we have some progress here. It’s not dramatic like some people on the program, but my back is exceptionally unbendy. Plus some nerve tension. The journey continues.

My personal practice has changed over the years, particularly over the past few years. I tend to practice alone at home these days. Partly because I enjoy the solitude, partly because there aren’t really any local classes that inspire me.
This has created space for me to bring in other types of movement practice. Such as lifting weights 🏋️‍♀️ calisthenics 🤸‍♀️ flexibility and conditioning. I also meditate way more than I used to. From a Yoga Nidra, to a guided journey, to simple vipassana.
Also my practice has had to fit around various health issues. Cruelly it seems they have got worse since I became a yoga teacher. I am in this contemplative mood because I’ve been laid up unwell for a few days, feeling jealous of the people who never seem to get ill. I know not very yogic. 😂 I guess I’m sensitive to the environment and there are people in the world that are way worse off for sure. There are people in the world that live clean, exercise, look after themselves and suffer illnesses. There are people in the world that abuse their bodies with drugs, alcohol, poor diet, lack of exercise and get away with it scott free. So end of the ramble. I appreciate the time to contemplate. I think 🤔 🤦🏼‍♀️

RANT ALLERT ⚠️

I’m normally pretty good at ignoring all the nonsense on the internet. This post showed up actually in my FB feed. A classic example of misleading and poor advice on achieving some pretty advanced shapes. I don’t know who this lady is, I’m not having a pop at her specifically.
It’s just another example or poor advice that can lead to frustration and perhaps even injury.
You can’t just stretch and stretch more to achieve this. Where’s the advice on the strength and conditioning needed to achieve these posture’s?
In my opinion whether you are a yoga teacher, a gymnast, contortionist or dancer what do you think on this?
I don’t think any of the before pictures prepare you for achieving the after pictures.
Please feel free to disagree with me. I’m always open to new perspectives. 😊🙏

Things I would tell my younger self about how Yoga will shape my life.

🌅 Yoga will change your life beyond your imagination.
How could I have known that it would take me into teaching.

🤸 Your physical body will respond to the practice, but there will be limitations.
Things will crop up that we just can’t do, it’s not worth flogging away at something that doesn’t suit your constitution.

🕉️ Yoga will enable you to dive into your true self, the original face.
Every aspect of the 8 limbed practice teaches you more and more, some of these truths will be uncomfortable.

❤️‍🩹 You will have to work your practice around physical health problems and limitations.
I wouldn’t tell her exactly what, I think I may have jumped off the bus if I had known what was coming.

😩 Don’t feel discouraged in yourself when you can’t do something others can.
We don’t know peoples stories. Some people may have had childhoods as gymnasts or dancers putting them at a physical advantage to someone who spent their childhood climbing trees and playing in the dirt. Those people still have challenges it is an 8 limbed practice not just physical.

💪 Don’t compare yourself to male practitioners. They are stronger, that’s just anatomy.
Men are stronger than women.🤷‍♀️

🧘 Being a Yoga Teacher can be lonely, but you will be ok with that.
Being an introvert it’s quite nice. You will find your tribe though.

🧙‍♂️ You don’t need a Guru or master. You will be nobody’s disciple.
We are are our own best teachers.

🥨 Asana practice on its own isn’t enough, you will be told by some it is, but it isn’t. You also need to do strength training.
We need a bit of everything to find the best balance. You are not less yogic if you go to the gym or for a run.

🌍 The practice will become the way you endeavour to show up in the world, not just what you do on the mat.
Yoga will change every aspect of life. Some things will no longer resonate with you. New things will.

🧘‍♀️ You will bring the practice to many people. You are in service to others. Also the source of all that is good.
A wonderful gift to share with the world. 🙏

Hello friends, just saying hi. There are a few reasons why it’s harder to contact me at the moment.
1 I’m on holiday yay! When I’m on holiday I don’t do work messages. We all have our lines in the sand, this is particularly important when self employed.
2 My phone is broken, completely malfunctioning so I am not able to receive calls, texts, WhatsApp messages or Telegram messages.
Samsung phones are providing to be a pain in the arse. Do you reckon I should get an iPhone instead? Comment what you think is best.
I will eventually respond to all messages when I’m home and I have a phone that actually works.
I am still contactable via Insta and FB.

The posture is my playful Flying Eagle on my little balcony.

Normal (well as normal as I get) service will be resumed soon. 😂🙏🏻

Back extension training update.

Any progress?
A bit, I guess.
My hands are now shoulder wide rather than nearly mat wide. ✅️
I am lifting up and over my shoulders rather than trying to push my chest through my shoulders. ✅️ (been making that mistake for years)
Oh, and my ears no longer ring. ✅️ that's always a good thing.
Chest is not closer to the wall yet, though. ❎️

Guess I'll keep going. 😊

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but there have been lots of posts in my feed from other yoga teachers, usually trying to promote their YTT courses, telling us we are not doing our jobs properly if we are not doing x,y or z.

Some of the statements I have seen;
"If you demonstrate the postures, you are not doing your job properly,"
"If you don't demonstrate the postures, you are lazy, unfit, and probably can't even do the postures you are teaching."
"If you use Sanskrit, you are pretentious,"
"If you don't use Sanskrit, you are uneducated, "
"If you do hands-on assists, you are invading peoples space, "
"If you don't do hands-on assists, you are not supporting your clients. "

Who do these people think they are?
What gives anyone the right to tell someone they are bad at their job?
There are no specific qualifications needed to become a teacher trainer.
There are some fantastic teacher trainers out there. They generally don't make judgemental sweeping statements about other people's teaching techniques.
There are also some not so good ones.

As someone who is neuro divergent, I'm finding this all rather noisy.
I would say;
If your classes are popular, safe, and enjoyable, and folks keep coming back, you are probably doing your job right. Someone might specifically come to your class because you don't do hands-on. If you are teaching a complicated Vinyasa sequence, you are probably going to have to demonstrate so the room doesn't decend into chaos. Some people like music, some don't.
Isn't it great that we are different. 🙏

Let's support each other, not shame. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I don't think I have ever introduced myself personally.

Let's talk about functional anatomy 🤓
I PROMISE IT WON'T BE BORING!

A friend posted this first photo today with the caption. Stay Flexible. I jokingly commented that my legs were way too long to do that (not that I'd actually want to eww) 😆
This lady came in the comments saying that's a lame excuse dancers can. The comment was from a place of ignorance rather than rudeness. But she just didn't get it when I tried to explain.
Unless you work in a field where you understand anatomy, most people won't realize that sometimes you can't do something because your proportions won't allow it. This can result in people trying to force themselves to look like the picture or video or the person in class next to you.
Sometimes, it is because we need to get stronger and more flexible. Sometimes, it's because we just aren't built that way. The second photo is a more sensible comparison. Know that your anatomy is unique to you and keep practising. Sometimes, look a bit closer as to why something isn't the way you think it should be. 🙏

A playful flow in the back garden with a really nice class from . If you enjoy playful and funky Vinyasa flows, I recommend her YouTube channel.

The grass needs cutting, but the lawn is covered in clover, and the bees 🐝 are all over it. I feel so privileged to have such a lovely practice space (when the weather is good)

Haven't done one of these in a while.
⭕️⭕️⭕️ ⭕️⭕️⭕️

I love the graceful shape of this pose. It feels so spacious. Also, it is so much more accessible for the majority than full bridge.
If I put full bridge into a class maybe 2 or 3 people choose to take the posture, where if I drop a wild thing about 70 - 80% of the class take the posture creating so many different and beautiful shapes.

This weeks posture comes from
