Welcome to my website.  My name is Maura and I am passionate about yoga. As a Yoga Instructor, I want to make the practice of yoga accessible, joyful, and an integral part of people’s otherwise busy lives. Want to find out more? Join me.

​

I attended my first yoga class in LA Fitness in 2003. I had suffered with back problems after the birth of my third child and a friend suggested I try yoga. I was hooked and so my regular practice of yoga began.

​

In 2015 I attended yoga teacher training with Marie Quail Guild Of Yoga and became a certified yoga teacher (RYT 200). I began teaching my first yoga class in Lough Moss Carryduff in January 2017.

​

I try to broaden my knowledge and understanding of yoga through further study and education which includes: Anatomy of Asanas workshops with Shiv Sharma (who, himself, studied with Mr Iyengar), a workshop with Jason Crandell in Flow Studios Belfast, Yoga Therapy for Musculoskeletal Conditions, with Marie Quail Guild of Yoga 2019. I also completed training in Trauma Informed Yoga with Exhale to Inhale in 2020.
