Are you the owner of Amanda Yoga?
Welcome to Amanda Yoga, a premier yoga studio located in the beautiful town of Benfleet, Hadleigh, and Leigh-on-Sea. Founded by Amanda Turner, a certified yoga teacher with a BWY diploma, Amanda Yoga aims to promote a healthy mind, body, and breath through the practise of yoga.
Yoga, which means 'union,' is a holistic practise that can be enjoyed by individuals of all ages and abilities. In today's fast-paced and stressful world, yoga offers a sanctuary where one can find balance and peace. Through the practise of yoga, individuals can improve their physical well-being, increase their breathing capacity, and achieve a sense of calm and relaxation.
At Amanda Yoga, our classes focus on the complete well-being of the body. Through various physical movements, known as postures or 'asanas,' we work on improving the range of movements within our joints, enhancing both flexibility and strength. By addressing tight muscles, we can alleviate structural strain, such as knee and lower back pain. Additionally, building strong muscles helps to support and stabilise our joints, particularly the spine, which is prone to strain.
One of the key aspects of yoga is its emphasis on the breath. During classes, we encourage a relaxed and steady breathing pattern, both during physical postures and during relaxation at the end of the class. We also teach dedicated breathing exercises that further enhance lung function and reduce stress levels. By focusing on our breath and physical movements, we can quiet the fluctuations of the mind and find inner peace.
Stress reduction is another significant benefit of practising yoga. By influencing our nervous system, yoga shifts the balance from the sympathetic nervous system, responsible for the 'fight or flight' response, to the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps bring the body back to balance. By incorporating yoga into our lives, we can learn to manage stress more effectively and create a calmer state of being.
Amanda Yoga is proud to be a member of the British Wheel of Yoga, an esteemed organisation dedicated to promoting and maintaining high standards of yoga teaching. We adhere to their guidelines and ensure that our classes are taught with expertise and professionalism.
