Yoga & Coaching for vitality and a stress-free life

My Journey

Welcome to Pnoi Yoga!My name is Georgia and I started practicing Yoga in my twenties. I have always been interested in spirituality, dynamic meditation, and using the body as a vessel to direct the flow of prana.
I qualified as a Yoga Teacher at the Yoga Satsanga Ashram in Wales, UK, in the Gitananda Yoga tradition (2020). Under the auspice of my teachers, Yogachariya Jnandev & Yogacharini Deepika, I undertook an intensive residential Yoga teacher training course in Sanatan Yoga, a classical study of Hatha, Jnana and Raja Yoga. This style of yoga is inspired by Gitananda Yoga, the Holistic Rishiculture Ashtanga Yoga developed in India.
I deliver classes for community groups and busy work environments, to help combat stress, anxiety and other mental health challenges. I offer Yoga sessions which enhance athletic performance, positive attitude and mental stamina. I also offer Restorative Yoga for sports injuries and chronic health conditions.
I am a qualified Coaching Professional (Coaching Professional Level 5, NEPA, 2023) and I have vast experience of delivering Life and Business Coaching in the workplace.
I am also a certified Basketball Coach and I run Manchester Lynx Women's Basketball Club. I also love cycling, running, swimming, hiking, reading, cooking and the occasional football game.
I am a member of the Yoga Alliance Professionals teacher network and Basketball England.

COACHING

My Coaching Services
My Coaching work blends the arts of Hatha Yoga and Coaching into one discipline. I can help my clients reach self-actualisation (achieving one’s full potential) and transcendence (offering services to others, letting go of the ego, rejoicing in esoteric experiences). We will achieve this by following classic Coaching Models and Hatha Yoga practices.
I have a strong background in the art of Coaching. As a Life & Business Coach, I have coached managers and co-workers while working for a very busy communications company. I have also been a Sports Coach in the community for over 16 years.Why Coaching?
We all need a guiding light every now and again. We live in turbulent times, and this can have an impact on our motivation, our mental health, and our ambitions. Especially in the western world, we often neglect our wellbeing. When we feel “frozen” and “blocked”, we need a helping hand to reach our potential, our Dharma. This is where my Yoga and Coaching offering comes in; I am here to help you find your higher purpose.

"Having not practiced Hatha Yoga & Raja Meditation for a number of years, I discovered Georgia's Pnoi Yoga class and decided to give it a go. This decision was based upon my post Covid recovery whereby, having been seriously ill with the Coronavirus and Pneumonia, was placed in an induced coma & spent two weeks on a ventilator.
I have been attending weekly one-to-one Yoga sessions (remotely) for four months now & have noticed the benefits to my holistic health needs & emotional well-being.
Georgia has clearly put a lot of thought & careful consideration into my requirements & planned a bespoke session with this in mind, i.e. the main focus being my breathing techniques to strengthen my lungs, which has impacted my ability to breath more productively. As a result, my health consultants do not feel the need to put me on prescribed medication.
Furthermore, my whole body has strengthened, gaining more flexibility & building upon my muscle memory, which is beneficial for my overall movement.
I am confident that Georgia will make any attendee feel comfortable, accepted & safe. Given how unfit I was, Georgia did not judge or overwhelm my ability to undertake the sessions. Georgia is very much attuned to what her clients can or cannot do.
Namaste, G.F."
