What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?

I love sitting cross-legged, which is known as padmasana or lotus. It's simple but reminds me of my childhood and it's such a comforting pose for me that I find myself sitting in very often. I feel grounded, long in my spine and it instantly signals me to focus on my breathing.

I love Ashtanga Yoga because it seems like such a simple practice but it’s not. As a system it’s got many layers; parts of the sequence are really fun, parts are challenging, parts seem simple but there are always ways to explore within that.

What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?

Wild thing because I love the grace of falling into it, how open but strong it makes me feel without it being too much. Oh and also twists. I love a twist. Fav style is strong/vinyasa. Mainly vinyasa because I love how it encourages me to tune into myself and get lost in the wave of my own body and breath. I also love the creativity of a vinyasa!

What's your favourite yoga pose or style + why?

My favourite yoga pose is Urdhva Padmasana - Upward Lotus Pose - I've loved this pose ever since I did it for the first time in an ashtanga class. It's a pose in which the body feels very light but also grounded, almost like you could stay there forever.

My background as a yogi is ashtanga, and I still love it for the consistency and easy to measure progress. In a sense this is why my favourite style is rocket yoga, as it retains those elements of ashtanga but also allows for a more creative and playful side to the practice, as well as making a lot of the poses more accessible to a wider range of practitioners.
