Words From Students
“I wish all classes were like Andrea’s”
Andrea is such a gentle, warm teacher. Her classes hold the most beautiful space to have the practice your body most needs in the moment. As someone with c-ptsd, finding a teacher thoroughly grounded in trauma informed yoga and teaching practices, coming to Andrea’s class feels like finding a safe place to land.
Not just in her teaching - from sign-up, to the space, to cueing, to finishing through class, Andrea’s intentionality and experience is evident.
- Student testimonial
I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn from Andrea.
It is evident that she embodies what she teaches, so much of the content landed because her delivery mirrored the principles she was guiding us through. The lessons were short and easy to take in whilst reaching a level of depth that really sunk in and helped me to feel confident in guiding this practice. Not only am I now confident to share a restorative practice, but I am also a stronger, more confident teacher. Thank you Andrea for sharing your wisdom.

“Andrea provides an incredibly welcoming environment that allowed me to take on a brand new skill set, I wouldn’t have through possible.
Her passion for restorative yoga & trauma aware practices makes learning both easy & inspiring. I would recommend this training to anyone and I’m so grateful it was available”.
- Stacie, 2026 in person Restorative Yoga training graduate.
“From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed & supported by Andrea.
Nothing felt like too much trouble.The training was extremely well balanced and I feel confident going out to share this practice with the wider community”.
- Ash, 2026 in person Restorative Yoga training graduate.
“Andrea’s cues are soft, warm, and genuinely supportive, guiding you gently back to yourself.”
Andrea is, without a doubt, the most nurturing and grounding yoga teacher I’ve ever experienced.
Her restorative and yin classes are a true gift and every session feels like a safe space to completely let go. Without fail, I find myself tearing up from the sheer sense of wholehearted safety and calm she creates.
Andrea’s cues are soft, warm, and genuinely supportive, guiding you gently back to yourself. One of my favourite things she says is that it’s your time, you can use it however you like even if you just lie there in one shape for the whole class.
That permission, that compassion, makes every class feel deeply personal and healing. Her voice is incredibly soothing, her energy is grounding, and her approach embodies everything restorative yoga is meant to be.
I can’t recommend Andrea highly enough, her classes are truly an experience for the mind, body, and heart.

*Testimonials have been shared with care & consentAbout Andrea
You're learning from someone who doesn't just teach restorative yoga, I continue to guide the practice every week across multiple studios, through private sessions, teacher trainings, retreats, and long-standing restorative events that have been refined over years of teaching.
This training is shaped by real experience, not theory alone. Every sequence, cue, prop set-up, and teaching principle has been explored, tested, and refined in the studio with hundreds of students.
Alongside my teaching, I've spent over 15 years working in mental health and community support. That experience has deepened my understanding of how people experience rest, the importance of thoughtful language, and the value of creating classes that are welcoming, inclusive, and responsive to the diverse people in front of us.
I believe restorative yoga deserves to be taught with the same level of care, curiosity, and skill as any other style of yoga. It's far more than arranging props or holding shapes for long periods of time—it's a practice that asks us to thoughtfully consider sequencing, language, pacing, and the overall experience we're creating for our students.
This training isn't about rigid rules or teaching a single "right" way. It's about giving you the knowledge, practical skills, and confidence to teach restorative yoga with depth, intention, and understanding, while developing a teaching style that feels authentic to you.
