We are so blessed to have a wonderful selection of Yoga teachers, here at Kiva & Zen Yoga Studio, who offer both guidance and expertise from their own experiences. So no matter your level there will be a practice for you to enjoy.
CHARLIE NASH
Charlie was drawn to Ashtanga as a strength and flexibility focused yoga style to maintain a strong healthy body to keep life playful. Working with the breath throughout the practice maintains balance in the nervous system to support emotional and mental wellbeing. Charlie’s classes are fun and informal incorporating elements of her Hatha and Yin training along with Ashtanga.
Charlie loves to share the things that enrich her life so promotes yoga for all working with modifications and props used to make postures accessible for everyone.
Charlie teaches a weekly Ashtanga class and will start a Yin and sound bath evening class soon.

GRAHAM BIDWELL
The use of mantra or ‘Naad yoga’ is an integral part of Kundalini yoga. This focuses the mind and its vibrations resonate deeply within the body, helping to unblock stored emotions and strengthen the circulation of energy through the body. Naad Yoga and the use of primal sound are very efficient at clarifying the mind and optimising the ability to reach a state of meditation.

ANNE HARRISON
You will find my classes informal, friendly and welcoming. Through studying and teaching yoga I’ve enjoyed learning about different people’s individual and unique yoga practices and what their version of yoga brings to them.
I love supporting people in their yoga journey and creating space for people to develop their practice. In my classes you will find space to grow and explore your practice, find magic in the simplest of stretch’s and build towards postures that may have seemed daunting or inaccessible in the past.
I use a mixture of styles and props, alongside breathing techniques and an accessible range of levels for key postures.
