TEACHER PROFILE

Lucy Makin is a certified yoga instructor who lives just south of Newbury with her husband and two young children.

A practitioner of hatha yoga for many years, she became a certified yoga teacher in 2002 while living in the USA. Since then she has taught a wide range of classes, from pregnancy yoga, through large, mixed-ability classes to private one-on-ones, drawing inspiration from the many teachers she has studied with on both sides of the Atlantic.

Lucy and family moved back to the UK in 2004 and she has been busy teaching in the W.Berks/N.Hants area ever since. She is convinced that yoga can have profound benefits to any person at any stage of life:

"One of the really appealing things about yoga is its accessibility. Whatever your age, body type, or genetic blueprint, you can do yoga. And in time it will leave you feeling stronger, more balanced and open physically, mentally, emotionally on so many levels."
