I did my yoga teacher training with Vivian, over 2 years ago. Vivians knowledge of yoga is immense, how she combines her knowledge of the body, the mind, the spirit, quantum physics, biology and anatomy is completely unique. She had an understanding of traditional philosophies and also the most up to date modern research and with this can challenge current ideas and science in an educational intelligent way. Vivians yoga teacher training gave me what I didn’t know that I needed. She enhanced my own personal practice of spirituality and gave me a new job at the same time. Her approach to relaxation and meditation is that of a master. Thank you Vivian

"Vivian has a beautiful gift to see potential in others that they don't see in themselves and unlocking it. I first did my teacher training course with her in 2017 and now my yoga journey has grown that I now teach weekly online..."

I completed my Yoga Teacher Training with Vivian in 2019 and would highly recommend her. She is a living embodiment of her teachings. She has been committed to the yogini path for over two decades. These holistic practices not only include yoga as a lifestyle and personal hygiene; but also nutrition, mindset, and their effects on neuroepigenetics. During our training, I felt inspired, challenged, and stimulated by her style, material, and approach. I started covering for her at the University of East London, and she referred me to the SportsDock Center where I currently teach yoga classes.”

“Vivian keeps me on task from afar. I’ve had the absolute pleasure of knowing her for almost a decade, and although time has separated us physically - her online practice has brought us closer than ever... "

Before Vivian yoga classes, I was suffering with regular pain in my lower back and knees. Through Vivians yoga classes, I learned ways to pay attention to what my body needs and to practice the poses that help me stay balanced and move through the world with ease, instead of with aches and pains. Vivian is a one-of-a-kind teacher who recognizes each student and adapts her classes to serve all levels. Her classes have a patient and thoughtful sequence that helps you feel confident and move safely through poses. She has a wonderful bubbley and funny personality and I would definitely recommend her to any person wanting to learn more about yoga, about themselves or improve their health and mental well-being.

"Yoga became the mechanism which allows my brain and body to function in harmony without adrenaline kicks!!.. It keeps me relaxed , focused and joyful. I see yoga not just as a physical workout but a powerful mindfulness tool."

During the lockdown Vivian gave me the opportunity to attend her first Online Yoga Teacher Training, and I really enjoyed it. It was a good way to keep my mind and body going during that period while also learning how to support others. I Had a group of friends that where doing yoga with me while I was getting experience and practicing all the teachings from the course. Totally recomend if you wanna become a professional teacher or just for self improvement.

When I first attended Vivian’s yoga class in the gym, I could feel she had this great, positive Ora about her and you feel comfortable and very relaxed in her classes. Since attending her yoga classes during lockdown, it has been a safe place to bring people together, see how we’re coping during covid, to be positive, help to keep fit, encourage each other to stay motivated during these challenging times and practise mindfulness. I would never feel the drive to keep fit during lockdown without Vivian’s classes, she makes you feel welcome, happy to give you health/mindfulness, recipe tips. The classes has really helped me to keep pushing my boundaries and stretch like I haven’t before.

I always had a great passion for Yoga but I never had time to do the practice. Behold, in the Covid 19 pandemic, time arose and care for the body and mind became more than necessary! It was at this moment that I learned about Vivian’s method which she teaches with a lot of clarity and professionalism.The Yoga practice was extremely beneficial on the physical side because I was a professional bodyboarding athlete and I surf daily for 30 years and I have a lot of wear. With the classes my pains decreased a lot and my flexibility and performance increased! In addition, as I work from home in my office sitting for 6 hours the yoga practice also aligned my posture. And on the mental side it brought more calm and concentration to the daily chores. I highly recommend it !!!

I have taken part in Viv's yoga classes for just over 2 years now. I was lucky enough to experience real life physical classes pre-Covid and they were absolutely amazing. Viv has a natural way of making you feel at ease whilst having fun. This last year Viv's online yoga lessons have been a lifeline in terms of keeping mentally and physically healthy whilst feeling part of a lovely group of people. I always look forward to Viv's lessons as they never fail to make a positive difference to my day.

I have known Vivian more than 6 yrs. I am her regular follower. Her yoga style is powerful and profound, harmonised with her knowledge and education which make her teaching inspirational and creative. She is always in positive attitude and remains calm in crisis. I am glad to know her, and I am grateful that she is also my good friend.
