About Tara
Having practised since the age of 15, yoga has played a big role in my life from adolescence through to adulthood. The stress and pressure from school exams is what originally led me to yoga and over the years I have practised various styles including: Hatha, Ashtanga and Iyengar. It was Vinyasa which particularly resonated, appreciating the adaptability, creativity and meditative qualities of the practice. I completed my foundational 200hr Vinyasa Teacher Training (with Carol Murphy) in 2016, alongside my Yin Yoga Teacher Training (with Josh Summers). I have now been teaching for 8 years. I am deeply committed and dedicated to furthering my knowledge through participating in annual teacher trainings with my belief that learning is a lifelong journey. As a result, both my personal practice and teaching continually evolves, and I stay abreast of current and up-to-date research, particularly with regards to the therapeutic benefits of yoga. In 2023 I completed my 500hr Advanced Yoga Teacher Training to become a Registered Yoga Medicine Therapeutic Specialist. I am also an E-RYT (Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher) with Yoga Alliance Professionals.

In my 1:1 therapeutic sessions I draw on a wide variety of practices: myofascial release (MFR), yin & restorative yoga, functional yoga, Hatha vinyasa, breathwork and meditation. Having such a wide range of tools to draw upon, I am able to meet the individual where they are at, on the day. I have studied the spine, shoulder and hip in-depth so I'm well trained to deal with injuries/ dysfunctions in these regions. I'm also a specialist in yoga for female health and can help with a variety of conditions such as endometriosis, PCOS and fertility. Sessions will be 60 mins or 90 mins in length. When working therapeutically, the first session involves an evaluation to provide me with a detailed understanding of your chief complaint. From all the information I have gathered in this initial consultation, I will then devise a tailored yoga plan going forwards.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Tara through both as a yoga instructor and a dear friend. I initially met Tara in one of her beginners' yoga classes, and since then, I have continued to be inspired by her exceptional teaching and expertise.
Tara's versatility as an instructor is amazing! She possesses a wide depth of knowledge and expertise in various yoga styles, making her an ideal choice for students of all levels. Tara's great at tweaking her lessons for individuals too. I have been lucky enough to have solo classes with Tara and she is able to adapt classes on the fly to suit what you are after in the moment.
One of Tara's most distinctive qualities as an instructor is her profound understanding of muscles and anatomy. Tara's in-depth knowledge of how different muscles work make the classes more enjoyable for an anatomy nerd like me!
I have personally benefited immensely from Tara's teachings. Her friendly and approachable demeanor creates a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere in her classes, making everyone feel comfortable and encouraged.I've been having 1 to 1's with Tara for almost 4 years. She has made me aware of the importance of stretching and strengthening my body and of improving my balance, especially now that I am in my late fifties.
Tara is now a very good friend; she is kind, patient and so knowledgeable in the art of yoga and well being.Tara is a fantastic teacher and has the quality that all great teachers share - she cares about you as a student. I have made great progress with some injuries under her guidance. Wholeheartedly recommend!
