Falkirk Yoga Class

The Teacher

Welcome to Yoga with Rob. 

My interest in Yoga began in 2002 around the time of my thirtieth birthday.

I was looking for a form of exercise that would help me to achieve lasting fitness, health, and well-being. I taught myself power yoga and vinyasa flow yoga at home, before joining a class at the local gym.

After a few years of practice my teacher invited me to join a yoga teacher training program, and in Autumn 2006 I qualified as a yoga teacher.

During a trip to Mysore India in 2007 I learned from the late Sri K Pattabhi Jois, the founder of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, for 3 months. I found my inspiration to bring the benefits of what I learned to beginner and experienced yoga students, teaching classes in Stirling, Falkirk and Glasgow.

Having qualified as a Yoga Instructor some 15 years ago, I have recently also completed a 300 hour training course in advanced yoga teaching, to increase my knowledge and skills. 

The further training is important for my own improvement and to continue my yoga journey as a teacher, and I want to also provide the best level of tuition I can for my students.

I aim to be as inclusive as possible, and everyone is welcome to the classes. I will adapt postures for a variety of abilities so that students can participate whether they are new to yoga or an expert.

Now that the Covid lockdown is coming to an end, I feel it is the perfect time to start new classes again, so that people can enter this new situation with renewed energy, less stress, and with better mental and physical health, to tackle the trials of daily life as they come.

A recent move has put classes on hold but soon I hope to be back to taking classes again. Keep checking in here for updates or contact me if you want to be alerted when classes are running again.

Thank you for visiting the site, and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
