Tina’s work centres within the understanding that many of the contractions of the body-mind are a manifestation of identifying with thoughts and behaviours that are misaligned with the truth of who we are.

All of Tina’s embodiment based programmes focus on consciously unravelling these holding patterns within our body-mind’s, in a myriad of ways, with guided transformative loving awareness. In cultivating the art of heart-centred embodied listening : deep presence, curiosity, directed awareness, compassionate holding and conscious breath within each asana, Tina’s work engages all eight limbs of yoga on the mat.
