About Heena

Trained in India and the UK, I teach yoga and meditation on a one-to-one or group basis, and I run UK and international yoga and meditation retreats with a focus on relief from stress, anxiety, fatigue and back pain.
My motivation to teach comes from personal experience having observed major improvements in my physical and mental health through a regular yoga practice. Like many other people, yoga has changed my life and this has inspired me to share the practice with others.
I have completed specialised training in therapeutic techniques in Yoga for Anxiety, Meditation on the Natural Breath, Sound Energy Therapy & Vibroacoustic massage with Himalayan singing bowls, and Children and Teen Yoga.
My approach is gentle and compassionate and I believe that yoga can benefit anyone regardless of age, flexibility, shape or mobility.

“I’d been looking for a yoga class specifically to ease stress and anxiety for a while when I happened to spot Heena’s ad on Facebook. I went along for a trial today and was really impressed. I felt quite anxious at the start of the class, but after concentrating on the breathing techniques I felt a lot calmer. Heena was lovely, easy to talk to and guided the class really well. The class exceeded all of my expectations and I left feeling like a huge weight had been lifted. I will be back as often as I can. Thanks again Heena. x— ”
