Breathe In, Breathe Out 'Asana is that perfect moment when the body is utterly still, effortless; sensation and breathing suspend themselves so that time comes to a halt.
Then: happiness in a moment of infinity.'
Patanjali, Yoga Sutras II, 47

Why choose One to One tuition
By Laurence Nagy, on 16 February 2012
Who can benefit?
Everyone can benefit from Yoga.
But how do you know when you should seek out private instruction?
Ask yourself: Are you…
- so busy, you cannot find time to attend a scheduled class at a gym or Yoga center?
- easily distracted or do you feel competitive in a group class?
- at a plateau in your Yoga practice, and feeling the need for individual attention to progress?
- recovering from an injury or illness?
- new to Yoga, and you need help to get started?
No matter what your reasons for scheduling a personalized Yoga session, Laurence will begin with an assessment of how you are feeling at that moment, both physically and mentally. This interview is also an opportunity for you to express your goals and desires. Based on her assessment, Laurence determines which asanas, breathing practices and meditation techniques to lead you through.
A good personalized Yoga session depends on uninhibited communication between the student and teacher. You will find that Laurence frequently asks what you are experiencing throughout the class. These questions serve a dual purpose. Not only will the answers help to determine what should come next, but they serve to remind you to always be listening to and obeying your body’s needs. Yoga can be hard work both physically and mentally. Therefore, patience and sensitivity set the pace for progress.

Biography Laurence qualified in Vinyasa Yoga with Gérard Arnaud, Paris, in 2008 after 12 years of regular practice in the UK, Japan and France. She also qualified in Pregnancy Yoga with the British Wheel of Yoga in 2011. For her own practice, Laurence regularly attends workshops at the Iyengar Institute in London and in Oxford.
Opened to various styles, Laurence has a preference for Vinyasa sequences which involve connecting postures with breath-synchronised movements. As a teacher, Laurence is aware that Vinyasa can be too strong for complete beginners or students with a medical condition. Her close experience with Hatha Yoga and Iyengar "styles" allows her to adapt her practice to mixed abilities. Her classes are up and running in South Oxfordshire, where she lives with her husband and three children. She loves teaching and hopes to share all the benefits she gets from yoga with her students.
