YOGA THERAPY
Therapeutic yoga ~ a combination of psychotherapy, clinical hypnotherapy and mindful yoga
A qualified clinical hypnotherapist and psychotherapist, I offer private 1-1 and group sessions using these stand-alone therapies and also in combination with yoga.
These sessions are completely bespoke to meet your needs; sessions are offered in a way that's engaging, gentle, safe, trauma-sensitive and empowering for you.
ABOUT YOGA WITH MARIANNE
What I offer
My love for yoga revolves around relationship - relationship with yourself and with others. Endlessly curious about the effects of yoga on the body and mind - as a yoga teacher, psychotherapist, climber, runner and cyclist myself - I really enjoy geeking out about the benefits of movement and yoga on our physiology and our minds. A passion of mine is exploring how playful, accessible and mindful movement boosts our overall wellbeing and improves our mental health.
Facilitating bespoke classes to suit individual and group needs is a real love of mine. Through Bristol Yoga Roots Project, I offer outreach yoga classes to under-represented communities in Bristol. Check out the BYRP website for more info.
The reasons we come to yoga are as vast as they are varied! There is something for everyone in yoga, sometimes it's just about taking the first step! You may be looking to:
Improve general fitness and flexibility, strengthen and tone;
Reduce stress, allowing yourself some time and space to relax and nourish
Develop breath awareness
Build greater mobility and joint strength;
Rehab an injury, manage chronic pain or improve performance in other sports;
Connect more deeply with yourself, your body and breath;
Cultivate greater well-being and ease in life
Or, maybe you just want to move and 'de-crunch' yourself after a long day sitting at a desk!
There is something for you here.
Head on over to my About section for more details on my journey and teaching style.
"Juicy, playful start to the day. Marianne guides breath control with a soft, powerful, smooth sequence. Thoroughly enjoyable."
