Nafia Harding
Nafia teaches in a way that promotes thought and meaning, letting the student experience for themselves while catering for all abilities and striving to create a relaxed and welcoming environment.
We are inundated with fabulous yoga teachers wanting to work for us, so we only select the very best of the best. No matter how long they have been teaching for we have created a training programme that all teachers come on before they start, so that we can teach them to run our retreats the adventureyogi way. That way, you know you are going to be looked after in the best way possible, on and off the mat.

Amy’s style of teaching comes from a place of nurturing. She wants you to feel free to explore the capabilities of your own body, respect your boundaries and learn how to heal and protect it. By blending strong, grounded hatha practises with the freedom found in Scaravelli and vinyasa she believes that each practise can help create the perfect balance between flexibility and stability in both body and mind.
Bess teaches a hatha flow based asana practice but comes more from “how does that feel” rather than precise alignment based practices. Connecting the heart to the body and mind through physical movement and the breath and infusing mantra and affirmations in each class be ready to be taken on a transformative journey.
Corrina is an authentic and thoughtful teacher who strongly believes that yoga is for everyone. In Corrina’s classes, you are empowered to listen to and trust your body, she encourages a mindful, inquisitive practice with benefits that extend outside of your yoga class. In Corrina’s classes, you can expect an observant Hatha based practice full of somatic inquiry; using your breath to guide you and reawaken parts of yourself you may have previously forgotten about!
