Vinyasa flow yoga is a style of yoga that emphasises fluid, continuous movement between poses, where each movement is coordinated with the breath, creating a "flow" between postures, often referred to simply as "flow" yoga; it's considered a dynamic practice that focuses on linking breath to movement to build strength, flexibility, and mindfulness. Key points about Vinyasa flow yoga: - Fluid movement: Poses seamlessly transition from one to the next, guided by the breath. - Breath-synchronized: Each movement is intentionally coordinated with the inhale and exhale. - Dynamic practice: Considered more active than other yoga styles like Hatha, often leading to increased heart rate. - Benefits: Improved flexibility, muscle strength, balance, coordination, stress reduction, and mind-body connection.
Fay grew up in Devon and has a love for nature. There she began exploring movement in her early childhood with Cechetti Ballet and contemporary dance. She later studied Dance and Choreography completing a BA Honours in Contemporary Dance from Bath Spa University 2006 before a post-graduate Diploma in Dance Studies 2008 from Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Dance and Music, London. Fay danced professionally as well as teaching technique and creative dance sessions to children, students and adults of all ages. Fays explorations were rooted in Choreography, Performance, Dance Technique, Contact Improvisation, Movement Development, Somatic Practices and Pilates. In her late twenties after a knee injury Fay fully committed to yoga. Yoga practice helped Fay recover with a new found awareness of how the body and mind can heal if given the space and support to do so. Fay’s journey to become a teacher of yoga started here; with an understanding of limitations we have and also the freedom we can create. Fay went on to study with various different teachers at triyoga, London. She completed her 200 hours teacher training and Advanced 300 hour teacher training with Anna Ashby, Jean Hall and Joey Miles. Fays main explorations have been in Iyenga, Anusara, Ashtanga, Restorative and Vinyasa yoga. Fay also has a love for Music, Philosophy, Ceremony, History, and Art, all of which she has studied along side her love for Yoga. Her journey inspires her creative approach to teaching; with explorative asana sequences interweaving healthy alignment, breath, philosophy, sound and music. Fay is a registered Senior Yoga teacher.
