About

After exploring meditation with a bit of yoga since the 1990s, in 2007 Diana became a serious student of yoga to help support herself through an injury, grief, and manage the stresses of her job. Prior to becoming a Yoga Teacher and Yoga Therapist, Diana supported children and families with additional emotional, psychological, and/or physical needs.

Diana has been enjoying teaching yoga to a wide range of students of varying ages and yoga experience since November 2015 and yoga therapist since 2019 completing both her trainings at Yogacampus. Diana is registered with the UK Complimentary and Natural Health Care Council (CNHC) as a Yoga Therapist. She has also complete her Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Teacher Training through Mindfulness UK. Diana currently supervises qualified and trainee yoga therapists. She is one of the original Founding Members of the Yoga Therapy Association in the UK volunteering as the Membership Officer.

Diana has a gentle, non-dogmatic approach to meeting people where they are and working alongside her students to enrich their physical and mental well-being.

Diana continues her learning with her primary teachers Lisa Kaley-Isley, Indu Arora, and Rama Shankar. Diana believes in being forever a student; taking courses to continue to evolve as a teacher and therapist to best serve her students. Some of these courses/trainings include pregnancy yoga, restorative yoga, yin yoga, mindfulness, meditation teacher training, yoga for stress/anxiety/depression, Accessible Yoga, chair yoga, yoga nidra, pranayama, Sanskrit, and workshops on yogic philosophy and texts.

To bring added joy she spends time gardening, walking in nature, a bit of travel, singing in a choir, cuddling with her pets, and cooking tasty meals and treats to share!

Loving ourselves through the process of owning our story is the bravest thing we will ever do.

Success! You're on the list.

Things I found beneficial from yoga therapy were:

  • being listened to
  • being respected
  • being looked after
  • having a practice that is just for me
  • learning about what my body can do
  • learning how I can help myself emotionally and physically.

Diana was very thorough, intuitive, understanding, and respectful of what my needs were physically and emotionally.

“I came to a yoga class initially for physical health reasons as I wanted to retain as much suppleness & flexibility as I could as I aged. I had a demanding job and many other commitments  & my weekly class was something for me. However what I’ve learned over the years is that my yoga practice is so much more than physical  postures- the importance of the breathing techniques, the meditation & the mind are all part of it. It has also helped me to relax with all the inevitable ups and downs of life. I miss the class & its benefits if I am unable to attend.
Yoga is part of who I am and I can’t imagine life without it.”
