Supporting Calm, Focus, and Wellbeing Through Movement and Breath
Get to know Vicki
I’m Vicki - a yoga teacher and breath coach. For me, the two are inseparable.
Krishnamacharya, often called the father of modern yoga, said: “If you can breathe, you can do yoga.” That simple truth guides everything I teach.
I’ve practiced yoga throughout my life, always inspired by the feeling of connection to body and nature. My approach is rooted in Ashtanga yoga, a practice that supports health, balance, and wellbeing through breath and movement. I trained with Ian Davies at the Orange School of Yoga in Cheltenham, and my classes focus on strength, balance, alignment, and gently expanding your natural range of movement.
My deeper journey with breathwork began in 2020 after reading James Nestor’s Breath. Since then, I’ve trained in advanced techniques with Oxygen Advantage and explored other methods including Wim Hof. Breathwork has shown me just how profoundly it can transform health - influencing stress, sleep, performance, and even conditions like asthma.
I’m passionate about sharing these tools. My teaching continues to evolve as I explore the biochemistry and biomechanics of breathing, and how they can unlock greater resilience, calm, and vitality in everyday life.

“Vicki is a wonderful teacher, with a wealth of knowledge so you can be sure you're in a very safe pair of hands. She encourages you to try but does not push you beyond your capabilities or what you feel comfortable with.After just a few months my strength and suppleness have greatly improved. A way to go yet but with Vicki I'm sure I'll improve even more as she gives me the confidence to keep trying. It is a really lovely, relaxed class."

“Practicing breathing techniques with Vicki has truly opened my eyes to the power of your breath. From relaxing to a point I didn't imagine possible to holding a plank position for longer than I ever have before, the results have been remarkable. The positive impact on the quality of my sleep has also been amazing, which in turn has improved my energy levels, concentration and wellbeing.”

"Not only has learning different breathing techniques with Vicki helped me to be in control of my anxiety but I sleep so much better at night and feel so full of life and energy when I am awake. I also find that with Vicki's guidance I am becoming better equipped to take on physical challenges which I would have previously found difficult."
