Customised Personal Training

Personal (one-on-one) yoga training offers several powerful benefits compared to group classes. Here’s why many find it worth the investment:

Personalized Attention & Custom Support

• Tailored to your needs: A teacher can design a unique sequence based on your goals—be it flexibility, strength, stress relief, or rehab from injury.

• Live feedback: You get immediate guidance on alignment, breathing, form, and posture—something not possible in packed group classes.

• Hands-on adjustments: With permission, your instructor can offer gentle, tactile cues to enhance posture precision and deepen stretches.

Safety & Injury Prevention

• Injury-aware modifications: If you're managing chronic pain or recovering from injuries, props and modified poses can be integrated safely.

• Reduced risk: Close supervision helps correct faulty form that might otherwise lead to injury during unguided practice.

Faster Progress & Goal-Oriented Focus

• Accelerated improvement: With individualized instruction, practitioners often advance faster—sometimes in just a few lessons.

• Tailored milestones: Instructors can focus on your specific goals—like mastering a headstand, backbend, or reducing back pain.

• Accountability: Regular private sessions help maintain discipline and ensure consistent practice.

Mental Clarity & Emotional Well‑Being

• Safe personal space: One-on-one allows emotional safety—no need to worry about how others perceive your practice.

• Deeper mindfulness: Without distractions, you can fully focus on breath, awareness, and presence.

• Stress relief benefits: Yoga’s mental health improvements—relaxed mind, better mood, lower cortisol—are enhanced in private, focused settings.

Convenience & Flexibility

• Schedule-friendly: Sessions can be arranged at times that suit your personal or work routine.

• Location choices: You can practice at your home, office, or a studio—whatever feels most comfortable.

Summary: Is it right for you?

Choose personal yoga if you:

• Want fast, safe progress on specific goals

• Need posture correction or injury adaptation

• Thrive with direct feedback and hands-on guidance

• Count on convenience, privacy, and mental well-being

• Value emotional safety or mindfulness without distractions

Stick to group classes if you're content with generalized instruction, budget-conscious, or enjoy social energy.

 

Tips Before You Book

1. Discuss your goals, any injuries, and what you’d like to focus on.

2. Clarify if you want hands-on adjustments or prefer verbal cues.

3. Ask about pricing—expect private sessions to cost more than group classes (often £30+ depends upon location, timing etc).

4. Try a few sessions—it’s common to use private lessons for targeted support a few times a year.
