Olivia Boydall

Chair Yoga teacher

Biography

Olivia discovered Yoga in her late teenage years amidst confusion, anxiety and stress; the resonance she found with Yoga was an immediate connection, bringing balance and a soothing presence. She brings passion, enjoyment and a sense of empowerment to her classes, finding pleasure and relief in the movement and equally in the moments of stillness. In her teaching Olivia encourages using the breath and mindful movement to connect with the body, to help draw inward with intention to find a firmer and more consistent hold and access to all the power we have within.

The more we find this connection on the mat, the more accessible this feeling of contentment will translate off the mat in our day-to-day. Realising that education is nearly always the best motivation, she integrates a little science into her classes, so students feel inspired, confident in their Yoga practice, and a sense of achievement from exposing themselves to all of the neurological, physical, and emotional nurturing that Yoga provides.
