    Teacher_______________________________--________________________________......... Top

Simon Low

Simon Low, one of the UK’s leading teacher trainers, has been teaching yoga internationally for over 17 years and has developed a unique and personal teaching style, keeping classes diverse, focused and fun. Simon’s teaching reflects his training and ongoing studies with international teachers in many forms of Hatha and Classical yoga.
 
Simon’s Yin and Yang Yoga teaching is a balanced and thorough approach to yoga practice, on and off the mat, incorporating practices that address the seen physical body and the unseen, yet equally felt energetic being.
Simon encourages the individual to remain mindfully focused toward internal exploration as a guide to experiencing yoga as it is meant to be practiced – a personal journey toward freedom, clarity, balance and centeredness, and the revealing and nurturing of the True Self – your Essence.

Originally trained in the USA, (where he lived for 7 years), with Dr Larry Payne at Samata in Los Angeles. Simon has studied and explored a wide variety of physical, energetic and spiritual practices, including Iyengar, Astanga Vinyasa, Okido and Viniyoga, Chi Kung, The Alexander Technique, Pilates, Macrobiotics, and Chinese Medicine, effectively bringing together the essential elements of these sources of wisdom and healing into his teaching.

Simon is the Principal of The Yoga Academy, one of the UK’s leading yoga teacher training schools and was the original Director and a co-founder of Triyoga, the UK’s most renowned yoga studios.

Simon runs teacher trainings, weekend residentials, workshops and yoga holidays internationally throughout the year. The new DVD  “Yin and Yang Yoga with Simon Low” has recently been released, while Simon is a guest writer for “Ask the Experts” in the Observer newspaper, and has been covered in or has contributed to numerous national and local newspaper and magazine articles.
 
Simon is assisted at all his yoga events by experienced Yoga Academy teachers, ensuring that all students are effectively guided and supported throughout his classes.
