Tanya has worked in the health and fitness industry for over 20 years gaining a wealth of knowledge and experience in many types of exercise ranging from Aqua Fit, Body Conditioning, Spinning, Body Pump and Body Balance. However, her passion lies in Yoga and Pilates, where a holistic approach is applied to exercise, health, and well-being.
Tanya has been a Yoga Practitioner for 16 years and a fully qualified Yoga teacher since 2006 (FRYOG) www.friendsofyoga.co.uk
She gained her mat based Pilates qualification in 2010 (www.cyq.org.uk).
As well as founding and managing the Yoga-Lounge studio, she also teaches classes. She maintains her own Yoga and Pilates practice and attends continuous professional development days (CPD) to enhance her knowledge and teaching skills.
After practicing Pilates for many years to help me overcome my own issues I had experienced with a lower back injury. An injury that had caused me considerable pain and lack of mobility, I decided to take the plunge and study to become a Pilates Teacher. I qualified in July of 2020 with a YMCA Level 3 Mat Based Qualification.
I am so pleased that I am now in a position to help others to gain strength, build endurance and improve mobility as well as reducing stress, through the wonderful practice of Pilates.
My classes are based on personal experience and are fun and inclusive.
