      <image:title>Our Instructors - LISA CHRISTENSEN. Yoga Instructor - Slow Flow (Wed) &amp; Yin Yoga (Thurs)</image:title>
      <image:caption>I started practising yoga in 1995. I came to yoga to heal a bad back and sore knees due to too much high impact exercise. For a few years I enjoyed the physical benefits.  I started to notice that yoga also helped me on a mental and emotional level. I felt calmer, more patient and became more organised.  This feeling really got me interested in yoga.  I started to study with Jenny Beeken and the Inner Yoga Trust in 2005 . The very thorough teacher training programme I joined was tough and self reflective. I can honestly say it changed my life; it's important to be open and honest to help heal myself and others. I teach without judging and I believe that everyone can practise yoga . There are no “ perfect postures” yoga should be experienced on a personal level and never compared with others.</image:caption>
