Helen Bashford Yoga

Absolutely amazing!! Helen is fantastic!! If you are thinking of joining a yoga class then you should definitely consider joining Helen's. Helen is a fantastic teacher, making you feel at ease, whilst tailoring the class to meet your needs with a balance of relaxation and encouragement to improve at the level and speed you wish to do so. I look forward to our yoga sessions each week!!

I've recommended Helen's classes to so many people - she's absolutely brilliant. I've never really got on with yoga before, but was struggling with burnout this year and thought I'd give Helen's classes a try. I've now done three different courses with Helen and found them all really helpful - I came away with enough knowledge and confidence to be able to practise yoga at home, and a good understanding of how to use breathing methods to manage anxiety and stress. She gives really practical advice, with a gentle, warm and empathetic teaching style, and I love the way that she focuses on the science to demonstrate why techniques are effective. Thanks Helen!

Helen is a fantatstic teacher and also a genuinely lovely person. For me her studio feels like a place of paradise I never want to leave!I came to yoga for fitness, Helen has shown me a side of yoga I didn't really get - how to truly feel into my own body, recognise different emotions, what the causes could be, and how to release and soften through movement and breathwork.Helen is friendly, calming and so knowledgeable I could listen to her for hours.I now consider my two weekly classes as essential for my wellbeing.

Helens classes are small, friendly and fun. She cares passionately about mental health and trauma and her specific classes for this are amazing. She is always learning and finding ways to help people during their yoga journey. I highly recommend her and would encourage people to give her lessons a try!

Helen's ethos of yoga and mental health being interlinked really struck a cord with me and after 6 months of trying to find a suitable yoga class I took the step of booking a 1 to 1 session with her. Helen did not disappoint and even after a few sessions I have found myself sleeping better, breathing has improved and being able to manage better the stresses and anxieties as a result of bereavements over the last 2 years. Helen is a great listener, very empathetic and works with you and your abilities as well as having this amazing ability to break down into simple terms what is happening with the body and mind and how yoga and breathing can help your body and mind. Its early days but for the first time in over 2 years I am feeling more at peace with things, getting far less stressed and finally being able to sleep better. I love my sessions with Helen and really feel she is passionate and invested in sharing her vast knowledge and experience to help us mentally and physically. I would not hesitate to highly recommend her to anyone.

Helen’s Flow Class in her home studio is excellent. There’s something for everyone and she is a highly skilled and trained teacher.I love learning all the new anatomy and neuroscience that she shares with us.I couldn’t recommend her more.

Helen’s classes have quickly become an anchor point in my week. She teaches beautifully put together flows with incredible soundtracks, accompanied by useful, informative guidance that explains the benefits of the breath and movement. I leave feeling calm, fresh, and balanced. She is a wonderful yoga teacher.

I love Helen’s yoga classes. I always feel so much better afterwards. Monday classes reset me for the week ahead. Her studio is gorgeous, lovely friendly fellow yogis too! Helen explains the poses well, classes are varied. I had never done yoga before but yoga is now firmly part of my routine and life. Thanks Helen!
