How my journey began
Namaste,
My name is Lucy and I’m pleased to introduce to you Floating Yoga. I am a passionate Yoga alliance accredited yoga teacher based in Herne Bay, Kent. I completed my teacher training with Doveton Yoga School, having worked as an actress for 5 years after graduating from drama school, working in film and theatre. After some years in the industry, I began to consider my sense of spirituality and what I wanted to say to the world. I turned my attention inward, listened to my inner voice, followed my intuition and qualified as a yoga teacher, my true calling.
So…Why Floating Yoga?
I’ve grown up on the river & come from a boating backgound. Some would say I am a water baby! I believe water is in my spirit. I am forever inspired by water which evokes fluidity and space in my style. A pull to the sea, where I now live & practice in Herne Bay, as well as a big change in lifestyle, helped me to realise the infinite possibilities in my practice & my own life. I am forever grateful I listened to my intuition, & followed the river to its source. I invite you to connect with your source & your sense of self in our yoga practices together.
I am an open-minded and inquisitive yogi, my style is varied & constantly adapting. I have a keen interest in the chakra system & holistic therapies & am also a trained Y12SR spaceholder, which equips me to teach yoga for 12 step recovery, for healing, for people suffering with addiction issues. I wholeheartedly believe that the key to living in alignment with the authentic self, with true presence and infinite joy, lies with our connection to the breath. I know that it is my passion and calling to facilitate a space for others to align with the path of their truest intentions My yoga journey is constantly evolving & developing; I invite you to join me as we learn & discover together.
For me, yoga means community, belonging, and connection. I love that as a yoga teacher, I am always learning & questioning my own beliefs & ideas, continually inspired by students. I evolve, adapt & develop based on my own practice & the practice of others, together we transform & together we float!
Long term, I hope to bring the joy & benefits of yoga & meditation to as many as possible. Join me as we raise collective consciousness, connect with the breath (your life force), and discover the joyful sense of wholeness and healing your practice can bring you.
See you on the mat!
What People Are Saying
‘‘Lucy was friendly and helpful as soon as I walked into the Herne Centre. I've had quite a few yoga teachers and Lucy has a very unique style, unlike anything I've seen before. I really enjoyed her class! I loved that she brought spirituality into the space, beginning with a short mediation and setting of intentions. Spiritual practice is very important to me; yoga is much more than just physical. Lucy held a very calming, centered and positive vibe during the entire session, not all teachers manage to do this whilst also instructing on the postures. She's an excellent teacher!
I've already paid for a months pass, and will definitely become a regular!’’
‘‘Lucy’s classes are the best, there is a lovely relaxed and welcoming vibe combined with encouragement and humour. I highly recommended giving them a try.’’
‘‘Great teacher, and stunning setting. Always leave feeling refreshed. Lucy helps build you up to some quite challenging positions, without it ever feeling intimidating; and gives you lots of different variations to make sure the sessions work for you.’’
“Utter chillout session and opportunity to switch off and empty the mind. Amazing yogi instructor.’’
‘‘I was so grateful for the class and it felt more than I had anticipated it to be, Lucy invites you warmly to tap into your own spirituality in the most subtle of ways and join her in something more than just a yoga session. As someone with practically no experience in yoga, I felt remarkably comfortable and included and I will be going as often as is possible for me.’’
‘‘Amazing class, really relaxing, really good for the mind, body and soul, definitely recommend. The lady that holds this class is really lovely and welcoming.’’
“Really enjoyed my first class with Lucy, she was very friendly and welcoming, felt at ease straight away. Some great stretches and postures which I could feel the benefit from the following day, will definitely be back!’’
‘‘This is the first time I have ever been to a yoga class. Lucy made me feel very welcome. She creates a calm and relaxed atmosphere and my sleep has improved since going. I have knee issues so I have to adapt certain positions and Lucy is very supportive in helping with this. She shows the positions for all ranges of abilities so the class is suitable for all levels. I would definitely recommend these classes. The relaxation at the end is so good too.’’
