1-to-1 yoga & chanting
"yesterday I was clever so I wanted to change the world.
Today I am wise so I am changing myself"
Rumi
what is 1-to-1
1-to-1 sessions involve a student working closely with a teacher on an individual basis, helping them to move towards a personal positive outcome or aim.
The relationship is collaborative; the teacher giving guidance and support, the student giving feedback and participation.
Together, you are empowered to move forwards on your journey.

Testimonial
"I highly recommend Elaine to anyone looking to deepen their Vedic chant practice through a truly personalised approach.
Her teaching is exceptionally adaptive, perfectly pacing our one-to-one sessions to suit my individual style and schedule.
Elaine has an intuitive ability to know exactly when to review familiar material and when to introduce new chants to keep me engaged.
What I find particularly valuable is how she selects specific chants to support me emotionally and spiritually—focusing on themes like health, confidence, and navigating life’s challenges.
Even though we work via video call, the format is seamless and highly effective.
These monthly check-ins have become essential for maintaining my accuracy and preventing bad habits, allowing me to progress from a near beginner to memorising several short chants with confidence."

1-to-1 yoga
You might wish to have a class taught in the privacy of your own home. In addition, you may wish to develop a regular personal practice, that can be practiced on your own.
The beauty of yoga is its self application - you don't need to have a yoga teacher/therapist with you at all times to enable your self development.
If you desire, I will give you a personalised yoga practice plan - written and figurative - as a memory aid that you can practise at home on your own between sessions of teacher/student contact.
Your yoga practice will be tailor-made for you & may involve one or more yoga tools, enabling your gentle empowerment on your journey to health & wellbeing.
Tools might include, but not exclusively; poses (asana), breath work (pranayama) & meditation (dhyana), and will be selected in relation to your unique needs and preference.
who & where
Elaine works exclusively with women 1-to-1, in the comfort of their home.
the yoga process
The first session will be finding out more about you and your situation, plus what you are hoping to gain from the yoga.
Subsequent sessions will involve me giving you a new yoga practise or making modifications to your current one, monitoring your progress and making suggestions where needed. Any one session will normally last 60 minutes (up to an additional 15 minutes). The first 2 or 3 sessions are generally quite close together in time to make sure the student is practising correctly on their own. Subsequent sessions can be at a timing that suits the student.
