GuildfordYoga

I have been attending Luci's yoga classes for about 10 years and I can't praise her enough. Her classes are always fun and she takes great care to ensure the safety of all the class participants, taking into account their various strengths and being very sensitive to any injuries they have. She is always encouraging and is very good at working on all parts of the body. Her instructions are very clear and she is an extremely professional and knowledgeable teacher.

I've been doing yoga with Luci for two years following retirement. For the first year I did yoga therapy class once a week. I chose that class as I had a frozen shoulder with limited mobility. In the last year I also joined the holistic yoga class as my shoulder and general mobility had greatly improved. This is what I sent to Luci a couple of months ago - "I played nine holes of golf yesterday with my two lads. First time out in nearly a year. Despite giving them the best part of 30 years, I won relatively comfortably with my lowest score ever. My swing was very good with plenty of flexibility in my hips, back and shoulders - thanks to Yoga!" Yoga has also helped my focus on my general well being. I have changed my diet and have lost over two stone in weight resulting in normal range blood pressure and reduced diabetes medication. I would encourage more men to do yoga - it's more of a challenge than you would think and enormously beneficial. Luci is a great teacher. She takes a real interest in all of her students and offers variations in some of the poses to suit different abilities. One of her favourite sayings is 'You are as young as your spine' and at 64 mine is a lot more supple than it was when I started with none of the recurring lower back pain that I used to get. I am just so glad that I took it up and persevered in the first year. I can't recommend Guildford Yoga highly enough.

Luci's instruction in Yoga is brilliant. Each class is unique and thoughtfully put together. The instructions and explanations given are always clear, so even over webcam you know what you are doing and why. I had not done yoga before and Luci's insights into any mistakes that I have made have always been really valuable in correcting my practice. The classes themselves are friendly, with a fun and peaceful atmosphere that often stays with you after each session.

I joined Luci’s class three years ago when my previous teacher retired.

It was great to drop straight into her class and immediately feel at home. Her “three for two” trial offer was helpful for this.

Luci is really good at providing individual attention and helping you work within your own abilities, regardless of previous experience. Having now found Guildford Yoga, I have no intention of changing teacher.

I am relatively new to yoga but find Luci's classes inspiring - I attend yoga therapy regularly and have dabbled in her other classes. They are tailored to meet the needs of the participants in a professional but kind way and her knowledge about why each pose is beneficial is profound. I cannot imagine doing yoga classes with anyone else.

I have been attending Luci’s yoga therapy classes for several years which has helped a dodgy lower back and neck enabling less trips to my Osteopath. Whenever I have pain or stiffness Luci dedicates poses that help. Recently due to the lockdown, thankfully Luci switched classes to online which has enabled me to continue regular yoga giving invaluable support not just physically but mentally and emotionally during these continued uncertain times.

I attended a morning yoga session when I was visiting my son in Guildford and I had a wonderful time. I am a yoga teacher and have recently returned to practicing Ashtanga after a long time away from it and I found the class to be exactly what I was looking for. It reminded me as to why I started yoga in the first place. It was deeply focused, inviting, totally accepting of the way I practice, inclusive, warm, friendly. I will definitely return.

This precious yoga resource both supports & drives me. Clive & Mark’s authenticity, reliability, compassion & love shine through, day after day after day. The clean, spacious shala with far-reaching views of Guildford, free parking, modest class prices & refreshing workshops remind me how lucky I am to have access to & be part of this strong community. Thank you guys, in so many vital ways.
