Having taken up yoga only recently to help with stress and anxiety issues I can honestly say it has helped immensely. Cathy is such a skilled and adaptable instructor and really takes your needs into account when designing the sessions. You do feel a little self conscious when you start but Cathy is great at reassuring you and helping you out - everything is delivered with your needs in mind. Cathy is also flexible and I have so enjoyed the ad-hoc outdoor sessions which give a different soothing perspective to yoga. I can't recommend Cathy and Diversity Yoga enough, whether you're a beginner like me or more experienced - there's something to suit everyone.

I have been working with Cathy in either classes or 1-1 sessions for over a year now. I struggled with sciatica, and a general tightness in my lower back. I then had a micro-discectomy in July 2018 and have come back to yoga this year. Cathy's focused classes have really helped with my flexibility, control and core strength. I'd really recommend Cathy - she listens, and she specifically tailors exercises to me given my back restrictions and that gives me comfort that I'm in safe hands.

I've been practicing yoga on and off for several years now and find massive benefit in terms of physical & mental wellbeing. I've experienced many yoga teachers over the years and Cathy is definitely in my top 3! Her clear guidance and expert knowledge helps you to feel relaxed and safe in the movements you're making - especially new ones! She is a fantastic yoga teacher who delivers one of the best classes I've attended.

Really enjoyed 'The Yoga Retreat' held on Sunday 28 April, at Oakley Hall Hotel. I felt indulged,pampered and relaxed by the end of the day, which was in part due to the delicious food provided by the hotel (plenty of variety for lunch and the day ended with tea and delicious cakes!), but mostly due to Cathy of course. She gave us the benefit of both active yoga in the morning, and deep stretching in the afternoon (which I particularly enjoyed), followed by a session of relaxation and guided meditation. Cathy took time to make sure everyone was in the most comfortable position for them, and was as mindful as ever of each individual's issues or 'sore spots.' I can still feel the benefits of it today, and I definitely intend to repeat the experience again sometime! I can highly recommend this event to all. Thank you Cathy!

Cathy has done an amazing job of helping my bad back and shoulders. After our first 1:1 I could feel the difference. The pain in my upper arms appears to have gone and my shoulders have so much more mobility. The weekly yoga classes have also been hugely beneficial. I cannot recommend Cathy’s expertise and knowledge enough. Thank you Cathy x

The yoga course specifically for back pain was absolutely amazing! I love Cathy's teaching style which is so helpful and has given me the confidence to start practicing yoga at home. After the 6 week course my back and hip pain has almost completely gone and I know what I need to do to ensure it doesn't come back. I would highly recommend yoga with Cathy and I've already signed up to do more classes with her.

What a wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon at Cathy's Yin Yoga class. Cathy is a great teacher and is very knowledgeable so I felt very relaxed and confident to try the Yin poses. She walks around making sure everyone is ok and will adjust you if needed. I would highly recommend a yoga class with Cathy. Last nights Yin class was so good -here is the email I sent Cathy... "I just wanted email you to say my back feels so good after last nights yoga breathe - My lower back was very stiff all day yesterday and I was slightly apprehensive about coming - I am so glad I did as it feels so much better - thank you. I really enjoyed the class."

I absolutely love Cathy's yoga classes. I am a latecomer to this but glad I didn't leave it any longer. I love how my body can do so much more than I thought it could, that slowly I am becoming more flexible, my knees are less troublesome. Cathy explains each pose in detail, is encouraging, will guide you to do more than you thought you could and yet teaches you how far you can go. Highly recommended and couldn't wait to start again after the Christmas break.

Cathy is THE most incredible yoga instructor. Each person receives individual attention in her classes. As you walk in you are greeted by a smiling, welcoming Cathy who immediately makes you feel confident, comfortable and safe. You step into an oasis of calm and float out afterwards feeling fully restored and stretched! Highly recommended. Thank you!
