Louisa has been practicing yoga since the mid-90s and it became a passion that she wanted to share. Always a student, she continues to train with top yoga teachers worldwide up to this day. As well as completing her 500 hours as a senior yoga teacher with FLY, she has trained as an advanced reiki practitioner, which she incorporates into her classes, and has diplomas in Tantra, Feng Shui, Ayurveda, Moonology & Astrology.
In 2018, her Yoga School won the Fitness Award at the prestigious Trend – Life & Style Awards. Louisa has since gone on to train many successful yoga instructors, runs trainings and retreats Worldwide, and holds an annual Yoga Festival in her hometown of Aberdeen, Scotland. She is featured in the August 2022 edition of Om Yoga Magazine as one of the top ten yoga teachers in the UK.
Louisa prides herself on the quality and calibre of her graduates. Becoming a yoga teacher is a life transformation and a personal process so she is on hand at every step of the way to provide her graduates and trainees with help, support and guidance. She is approachable and accessible to all the needs of her students, trainees and graduates.
Louisa’s type of yoga is a hybrid of styles (vinyasa krama, kundalini, tantric hatha, yin, restorative, etc.) combining pranayama techniques and bandhas to concentrate & harness the prana (energy) in the body. Her aim is to release the things we hold on to and peel away our ‘layers’ to find a purer, happier version of ourselves. Classes are esoteric and light-hearted, weaving yogic philosophy into the experience. Louisa’s view is that the aim of asana is more than improved health, flexibility and strength; it is also used as a technique to balance the main forces that sustain the mind and the body. Asanas are used to transform the physical body, as well as, to unblock or remove the obstructions to healthy or balanced energy flow.
