TESTIMONIALS

“I have tried practising yoga before but didn’t enjoy it much.
Semra made me love yoga. Practising yoga in her classes became is such an important part of my week. She is clearly a very gifted teacher, explains every yoga position with clarity, pays attention to every participant and makes sure that everyone in the class is doing it correctly.
She is a very knowledgeable, passionate and a very inspiring teacher.”

* A. Hanley

"I have been practising Iyengar Yoga for 13 years – though you wouldn’t guess so! I am SO grateful to have Semra as our Teacher. She has a very special blend of calm and quiet mischief, prepares each session with utmost care and professionalism , and has a genuine concern for the individual needs and circumstances of each of her Students. Semra explains and demonstrates each pose and purpose very clearly – and has gentle patience with us when we don’t quite make it!

I look forward to each session, and each session is different.

Yoga with Semra has become a highlight of the week, and I would recommend it, and her, to anyone."

* Annie Fellows

"I recommend Semra highly. I have tried Yoga several times over the years and always felt either at sea or sustained an injury. Semra explains everything properly so it is much easier to follow the moves. I am in my 60s and not fit and she makes allowances for that, previously I have felt unable to keep up.

She has a calm aura about her which adds to the enjoyment. I look forward to her sessions rather than having a secret dread!"

* Tessa

* Laura McGillivray  

“Over the years I have been to many Iyengar yoga classes. Semra’s class stands out from the others. Because Semra pays attention to everyone’s particular needs and she runs the class accordingly. She is a really lovely teacher. I can not recommend her enough!”

"Semra prepares her content meticulously aiming at strengthening different parts of our body. Her instructions are clear, enabling safe and enjoyable yoga practice even for online classes. She pays attention to each participant and directs us well to get the postures right. This works well as safe practice is a priority for me. Semra has this magic touch to get you the best posture!

"Semra's yoga class is a highlight of my week. I feel fitter, stronger, and energised."  

* Rebecca Rendle

“I had no experience of yoga before I started Semra’s class… I was worried that I wouldn't be able to follow the instructions. Far from it!  Her well paced clear instructions built up my confidence in just a few sessions. Each week I found myself looking forward to new poses. Such a wonderful moment of peace to look forward to the weekend. Thank you Semra.”

* Deniz Engin-Sugden

"Semra is a great yoga teacher with a warm and encouraging style of communication. The sessions are well planned with warm up stretches leading to more challenging postures but with careful attention to the level of the group and any incapacities. Despite the limitations of working on line, Semra identifies where adjustments to postures need to be made, either for an individual or demonstrating common mistakes such as bending when you should be straight or vice versa. It all amounts to very enjoyable yoga."

Marguerite Paffard

"I really enjoy Semra’s classes, after each class I feel calmer and my body always feels more energised and flexible. It’s always a great start to my weekend. 

 

Her attention to detail is second to none, and at times I feel like I am having a private class. 

 

She is so enthusiastic and passionate that this clearly shines through her classes."

* Carmen Adamou

Semra is the most brilliant Yoga teacher, carefully tailoring her classes to ensure safe progress. I really look forward to my hour of Yoga and always feel so much better after every session.
I couldn't recommend Semra's Yoga classes more highly. 

* Zoe Latham 

I love Semra's lessons. I am new to yoga, and she takes such care to make sure we do things slowly, carefully and properly. She always takes on board any of our pains and plans her lessons with these in mind. Her lessons challenge and stretch us as well as being wonderfully relaxing. She has such a relaxing voice!
