Sensitivity & effectiveness

“Jacqui teaches her classes with great sensitivity and effectiveness. Her classes are always interesting as asana and pranayama practices are combined with yogic philosophy (both ancient and modern). I leave class feeling I can practice yoga with confidence and also feeling much more in touch with myself.”

Alison Leach - Yoga Teacher

Clear & interesting

“I started to take Jacqui’s classes because of a neck problem but I soon became hooked. Jacqui not only explains and teaches each asana clearly but incorporates interesting quotes according to the theme. They could be on current topics or Yoga philosophy, but they sparked an interest in me to go further into Yoga as a complete, rather than a purely physical, practice and I’ve never regretted it!”

Julie Belford - Yoga Teacher

Knowledge & compassion

“Having previously practiced yoga for many years I started to attend Jacqui’s classes after a short break in my yoga journey. Jacqui’s style of teaching really reminded me of why I first came to yoga and why I loved it so much. Jacqui teaches with so much knowledge and compassion and is a natural teacher. Her teachings and classes inspired me to deepen my knowledge of yoga which led me to the BWY Foundation Course and then onto the Teaching Certificate. I can’t thank Jacqui enough for reminding me why I need yoga in my life and for inspiring me to find my new career.”

Clare Holmes - Yoga Teacher

Inspired to teach

“Attending Jacqui’s classes and speaking to her, as she does walk her talk, really inspired me to find out more about Yoga and to deepen my knowledge about the other aspects of it too. The mind and spiritual side. The more you learn the more there is to learn which then thanks to Jacqui lead me on to wanting to teach.”

Natalie Young - Yoga Teacher

Meaningful & heartwarming

“Jacqui doesn’t teach just yoga postures, her teachings are meaningful and heart-warming, yoga is about union and creating a path for self-discovery. Jacqui was that teacher who helped me to deepen my knowledge and practice. I would highly encourage anyone considering attending classes with Jacqui. Great teachings from a forever student.”

Best nights sleep in 10yrs

“Just wanted to say thank you for the class last night. I had a great time and the best nights sleep I have had in at least ten years. I will be practising my breathing as I found that really relaxing, I am one of the most wound up people you will meet but I felt so chilled, like a different person. I look forward to seeing you next week.”

Jan - Yoga Student

Renewed energy

“Yoga helps me to put my everyday problems to one side for a while, so that I can focus on keeping my mind & body in good shape. This helps me to tackle the week with a renewed energy.”

Elaine - Yoga Student

Helped arthritis

“I am moving to Cambridgeshire and it’s unlikely I will see you again so in case I don’t I just wanted to say a BIG THANKS for all your help over the months. Its been fantastic attending your classes and it has really helped my arthritis.”

Marie - Yoga Student

Helps with work stress

“Since I started practicing yoga it has helped my worries and work stresses dissipate, leaving me feeling relaxed, refreshed and ready to face the challenges of a stressful working life.”

Kerry-Anne - Yoga Student

Good nights sleep

“I look forward to Wednesday evenings 7:00 to 8:30. Jacqui is such a lovely, calm and patient teacher of yoga, I have been one of her students since 2008. She makes everyone feel so welcome and for me the class is always followed by a good nights sleep.”

Valerie Hirst - Yoga Student

Suitable for everyone

“Jacqui is a wonderful teacher. She makes everyone feel welcome and at ease. Every session usually starts with a ‘little gem’ of knowledge from her wide reading which reminds you that yoga is much more than a physical exercise course. She often prints out little quotes for us to take home. I have been attending yoga classes with a variety of teachers for the last 50 years and I was very lucky to discover Jacqui’s Classes about 10 years ago. Every asana is able to be done at some level by people of all ages and ability and Jacqui encourages everyone by frequent reassurance and praise. I particularly like the way she explains the benefits of each asana. She uses the Sanskrit names as well as the English versions for each posture. I love the way Jacqui talks with such enthusiasm and knowledge. The breathing exercises are so useful in everyday life and I use some of these daily. It’s so important in this hectic world to be able to slow down your breathing.”
