Light Up Your Life Yoga

Yoga to relax your body and calm your mind

About Lucy

Light Up Your Life Yoga covers yoga classes delivered by Lucy Cleary.

I started practising yoga in 2003 when I had mild postnatal depression after the birth of my youngest child. Yoga made a difference to my life almost instantly, helping me to feel like I could cope again, and helping me to sleep.  During my teaching I have found yoga to have the same effect on other people.  I trained in Yoga Therapy as a way to develop my skills in delivering therapeutic yoga, working with people to provide them with the tools they need to improve their own health.

Yoga Teaching

I have been teaching yoga since 2008.  I completed a 200 hour Teaching Qualification with Dru Yoga in 2009.  This course is accredited by the Independent Yoga Network.

Since then, I have gained thousands of hours of teaching experience.

Yoga Therapy

In 2016 I qualified as a Yoga Therapist after doing a 500 hour Dru Yoga Therapy course which is accredited by the British Council of Yoga Therapists and while practising I was registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).

Although I am no longer offering Yoga Therapy sessions, my general yoga classes are therapeutic in nature. I teach techniques I learned in Yoga Therapy training and used in Yoga Therapy practice to help participants improve their physical and mental well-being.
