​Your Body is Your House.
Observe, Reconnect, and Come Back to Yourself.

Many of us are living in a constant state of stress — moving through life in “fight or flight,” shaped by work, anxiety, past traumas, social media, and the pressures of daily life. Through gentle movement and breathwork, we begin to regulate the nervous system and return to a place of calm, balance, and ease.

Come home to yourself.

My Approach

My classes weave together Hatha, Vinyasa, and Yin/Restorative yoga, rooted in the philosophy of Patanjali's 8 Limbs and inspired by the Katonah Yoga tradition — the belief that your body is your house, and that yoga is the practice of learning to live fully within it. In these classes, we begin to tune into the nervous system, the fascia, and the lymphatic body - creating space, softness, and flow. Not to force or fix, but to listen

Your breath — your prana — is your currency. The way you breathe shapes the way you live. By bringing awareness to your breath, softening and lengthening it, you create space within the body and mind. This practice is an invitation to pause, to notice, and to begin again. It doesn't matter if you are not flexible, have never practiced Yoga before or feel your body is not the right aesthetic, Age or fit to do Yoga - Yoga is for Everyone!

My process is observing without Ego.

Through mindful movement (Asana), breathwork (pranayama), we explore not just the body, but everything it holds - tension, emotion, patterns and stories. I trained for 400 hours in India to be able to hold this space with skill, integrity and care — and I bring every bit of that into each class I teach.

Whether you've never set foot on a mat or have been practising for years. Men, women, all ages, all bodies, all abilities. No experience needed. No judgement. No Comparing. No ego.

    “Being a woman of a certain age I had to battle with changes in my body, hormones that has impacted hugely in my sleeping pattern. Following a discussion with healthcare professionals sleeping tablets were offered but declined. I was approached by my yoga instructor Persia to attend yoga. I was overwhelmed with worry fear on my first attempt to yoga but the pace and extremely knowledge Persia has made me comfortable. I’ve learned to quite my anxiety by implementing breathing therapy. I'm now able to sleep. Whenever worry comes I performed my breathing therapy and realise that concern into a space. Yoga is brilliant and yoga is having a huge impact in my wellbeing. A huge thank to Persia. Tx.”

    “I have really enjoyed being welcomed into this space, especially without too much experience in Yoga. The community is so friendly, and Persia is so kind and warm. She takes us through poses in a gentle way, but also pushes us to achieve more than we think we can, and it often surprises me how she manages this without any pressure. Thank you for your belief in us, Persia!”

    "Persia creates a space where you immediately feel safe, supported, and completely accepted. Her classes are about so much more than movement; they offer an opportunity to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. I left feeling calmer, lighter, and with a greater understanding of my body and how I respond to stress."

    “Persia is really patient, explained everything very well. Really appreciate the first session being extended, to ensure everyone felt comfortable with the poses etc. The class had a great balance between peaceful mindfulness and more challenging intense poses. Would love to continue to see this type of balance in the future.”

    “With this being my very first experience with yoga I'm happy to say just after two sessions with Persia I'm hooked! Her energy is absolutely radiant and holds such a welcoming space, she takes time to talk to each individual and helps create a comfortable space to get out of one's comfort zone. As a practiced breath worker, The breathwork is absolutely great for beginners and I look forward to seeing what comes next, the teaching style is brilliant however I feel an hour may be too tight as would be nice to hold some poses / stretches longer. I highly recommend Persia as a teacher and I thank the oversoul for giving me this opportunity to explore yoga with the wide range of knowledge the teacher holds!”

    “I am very inflexible with a knee injury. I have used short 10 min youtube yoga with adriene videos and knew I liked the softening and challenging and grounding experience of yoga. Persia's presence and communication has drawn me out of isolation into a communal practice which I would never have done otherwise. I have already chatted to neighbours on the walk across who I have not spoken with before so I am enjoying the community, local aspect. It feels like a great, precious privilege.”
