Meet Pauline

I want to make yoga accessible and approachable and am constantly exploring ways to break down the practice to its simplest form. You don’t need to touch your toes or stand on your head to come to Yoga Space, but if you want to, I can teach you how.

I’m not naturally flexible and have to work at my practice. I don’t fly easily into cool yoga moves but prefer to study and understand the structure and engineering of the posture to create stable and safe movement.

I started to practice Iyengar yoga over 20 years ago. I was curious about the esoteric side of yoga, the concept of “mind, body, spirit” connection and loved the precision of the Iyengar style. I was living in London in my late 20’s and life was work, eat, party, repeat, my stress levels were high and I craved a more holistic energy sustaining lifestyle.

After my first class I was hooked, I loved the grace of movement, the wisdom and mystery surrounding the practice in equal amounts, but mostly what I loved was how I felt -

calm, centered and at ease in my body.

Yoga has been a constant companion ever since. It has supported me through life’s ups and downs. It has helped me to build strength, stamina and flexibility, train my mind and process life!

I am a qualified accountant (my day job!), NLP Master Practitioner, Theta Healing Practitioner and Reiki Master.

I took my first 80hr foundation course with Yoga Scotland in 2010 and in 2018 my 200hr Avid Yoga TT with Meadowlark Yoga. I created Yoga Space in 2018 to bring my own simple, yet effective teaching methods to our community and share my passion and love of yoga with you.

My regular practice is ashtanga yoga mysore style balanced with restorative and yin yoga.
