Inform us a bit about your self… 

In 2016 the founding father of the Yoga In Healthcare Alliance, Heather Mason, invited me to hitch her in a brand new enterprise; to combine the advantages of evidence-based yoga into healthcare. Since then I’ve made this mission my life’s work. YIHA has educated over 500 yoga academics to ship a Yoga4Health 10-week way of life drugs course for NHS sufferers, and (as of 2023) our new Yoga4NHS employees wellbeing programme. Each programmes are accredited by our bodies recognised by the NHS (Personalised Care Institute for Yoga4Health, and Royal Faculty of GPs for Yoga4NHS)

Me and my spouse, Laura, have an 8 yr previous adopted daughter. I do the college runs so morning are all about getting our daughter prepared for varsity, and working round after her from anytime after 3pm when it’s swimming, ballet, faucet dancing, musical theatre, or choir. In between I work three full days equal working and coordinating the work of the Yoga In Healthcare Alliance charity. On Wednesday evenings, I ship Yoga4NHS lessons to employees over Zoom, and on Friday mornings I train a neighborhood Yoga4Health class to sufferers in Ely, Cambridgeshire, the place I dwell.
