Great yoga. Whilst I leave the lessons tired, I really feel the benefit after. Sarah is total professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Her sessions are always enjoyable.

Written by the company

With over 30 years of experience, Toward Yoga offers weekly Iyengar yoga classes and one-to-ones in Essex and Hertfordshire. I teach all levels, from complete beginners to advanced, including other yoga teachers. My classes are friendly and welcoming, with no judgement and no expectations. With 30 years of experience to draw on, I can modify poses if someone has a limitation and I skilfully sequence classes to help you get the most out of every single class. No two classes are ever the same, so you won’t ever get bored and your body won’t ‘get used’ to the movement and check out. I strongly believe yoga can benefit everyone – it just needs to be taught with a deep knowledge, understanding and empathy. I teach people who have various injuries and illnesses including Parkinson’s, cancer, slipped discs, scoliosis, torn ligaments, hip/knee replacements, etc as well as pre & post pregnancy, athletes, children, elderly and people just like you x Iyengar focuses on precise body alignment. Iyengar teachers have rigorous training over many years to ensure they are skilled at adjusting students in an anatomically correct way so that the student suffers no injury or pain. Yoga increases suppleness, strength and stamina, improves posture and concentration, and quietens the mind to promote well-being.

Formerly reluctant - now addicted!

I came to yoga a little reluctantly through recommendation by my physio following a kickboxing injury thinking yoga a little too "airy-fairy" for the likes of me. It's not! Sarah is very aware of the body's limitations and changes poses to suit. Everybody is welcoming and encouraging to a clueless newbie. I have found yoga challenging and addictive and have the confidence to try things under Sarah's watchful eye that I wouldn't attempt at home. I was also surprised that as many men do the classes as ladies. Sarah is an amazing and caring teacher and I feel extremely lucky to have found her!

Toward Yoga is simply superb!

Sarah is a superb teacher. No matter what your fitness level or age, she tailors each move to your own capabilities. Her classes are fun, challenging and inspiring in equal measure. Sarah is encouraging to everyone and her attention to detail in each move is second to none. I would have no hesitation in recommending Toward Yoga to anyone, whether they are a complete beginner or more advanced.

Best yoga teacher I have ever had! I had been doing yoga for 3 years before I started going to Toward Yoga and I really feel like I have improved and have such a better understanding of alignment.

Outstanding Yoga Classes!

Sarah’s wealth of experience, coupled with her unique teaching style, makes her yoga classes welcoming, inclusive, invigorating, pensive and fun! Don’t hesitate to come and try a class and you’ll experience this for yourself. I cannot recommend her (and Iyengar) highly enough.

Yoga teaching at its very best!

Toward Yoga is excellent, Sarah is a very experienced and understanding teacher.
She teaches all of her students with patience and understanding of their individual needs, limits and body types. Classes are warm and friendly much like Sarah herself!
Sarah’s love of yoga and all of the physical and mental well being it can bring are evident in all that she teaches.

Sarah is tops... she's skilled, enthusiastic, charming, patient.. we work hard but are happy to do so, safe in the knowledge that we are in a safe pair of hands with a very experienced teacher who understands each of her pupils individually & their bodies' strengths & limitations.
I feel pleased to live where I do and have access to such an outstanding teacher. Not everyone who practises yoga is so fortunate!

Highly recommend Toward Yoga

Sarah has many years experience as an Iyengar yoga teacher. The classes are not too large and each and every one of us gets 1:1 attention to ensure we're positioning ourselves correctly. I've had a bad back for 20 years now, and the improvement yoga has made is incredible. I've even been able to reduce my physio visits. My flexibility has greatly improved and I have more confidence with regards to my back. Highly recommend Toward Yoga.
