Josie Sykes

When Josie was a kid, her physiotherapist, yoga practising Mum would use breath control techniques to send her off to sleep or calm her down after a bad dream. These techniques remained in use with Josie for the next 20 years as a little life raft in times of stress...

Arriving in Amsterdam from the UK and landing at Svaha Yoga, suddenly breath control was defined as Pranayama and given the context of a yoga practise. Yep, this felt like coming home!

Yoga practise was initially meant to give me grounding and bring me back to reality from my crazy work schedule but these days its a fully integrated part of my life that constantly reminds me of the importance to give a lot of love and humility back to a universe that takes such good care of us.

Every time I get to my mat I'm humbled by the power and joy of it all and that's what I'd like to share with students.... a little love goes a long way these days!
