yoga with chet
Yoga and meditation makes me feel strong and in tune with my spirit. For
thousands of years mankind has praised and celebrated our spirit. But modern
society seems to have cut our spirit connection and the material realm has taken
over. “Yoga is a very practical and effective way to rediscover and understand
ourselves, and strengthen our bodies. I want to share this with my students.
It’s important to have a place where we actually have the time to learn about
ourselves, have a good stretch and everyone leaves the mat ready to tackle
anything with a clear, calm mind!” Chet is a dedicated hatha, and vinyassa flow
yoga teacher. She did her teacher training in Goa, India, with Mohinder Prassad
of Mahi Power Yoga. She has a worldwide-accredited yoga teacher training
qualification and is a member of the Yoga Alliance (the largest international
community of yoga teachers, schools and advocates). Her journey started studying
meditation and yoga at the age of 18. As many people know, yoga originated in
India. A spiritual experience led her to Osho’s ashram in Pune, India, at the
age of 21 where she studied more yoga and dynamic meditation. She has since
spent many years training in Shaolin Tiger Crane Kung Fu, Tai Chi and Chi Gung
with the Nam Yang Pugilistic Association. She has taught both adults and school
children, performed in South East Asia and at the Chinese New Celebration in
Trafalgar Square, London. Some of the meditation teachings in the Yoga Sutras of
Patanjali were later used in martial arts. Kung Fu was derived from yoga and
Chet was lucky enough to find a genuine, traditional kung fu art. Her amazing
teachers, Master Iain Armstrong, and Grand Master Tan Son Tin, took her to
British national championship in four years where she won a Gold medal for her
kung fu routines. In recent years, she has concentrated on yoga, studying hatha,
vinyasa, yin, kundalini and aerial yoga. She has always been interested in Asian
arts and doing things that seem impossible. As well as this, she has enjoyed a
varied career, including a media career for over 15 years in PR, TV, and radio.
Chet understands working under pressure both in, and out of, the office, and the
importance of having an exercise routine that actually fits around your life and
career. Yoga is perfect for this. You don't need a partner and you can train
whenever you can. Chet’s mission is to help you reach your most supple and
healthy as this ultimately leads to happiness. As well as improving fitness, you
will learn about the history and philosophy of the ancient art of yoga, and
develop practical ways to deal with the stresses of daily life
