ABOUT ME
MY BACKROUND
Hola, I’m Jose (Josefa), originally from Spain!
My yoga journey started simply: I needed relief from persistent hip pain. What I found in that first class went far beyond the physical poses. Yoga helped me connect with my inner self, let go of resistance, and approach life with a renewed sense of joy and gratitude.
I’m a big believer in living a judgment-free life. My classes blend my favorite styles—Hatha, Vinyasa, and Synergy yoga including Chair Yoga—to create a practice that feels good in your body and mind.
TEACHING APPROACH
Everyone is welcome here—no matter your age, size, or ability!
My goal is to create an inclusive, accessible space where you feel encouraged to believe in yourself. The focus is always on acceptance, compassion, empowerment, and making yoga work for you.
EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS
I’ve been practicing yoga myself for nearly twenty years, and I’m always learning new things. I’m a qualified Yoga Alliance trained teacher, teaching primarily in the Cheltenham and Churchdown areas.
I hold specific certifications in Vinyasa, Yin, Synergy, and Chair Yoga. I am also fully first-aid certified and DBS cleared.
