Paul Bailey, the founder of Yogapaul, discovered yoga by accident but has been reaping its rewards ever since. With over 30 years of teaching experience and continuous training in various disciplines, Paul's teaching style is a blend of Hatha Yoga styles that he has personally benefited from. His classes focus on the individual, taking into consideration their strengths and limitations, and he draws on his own personal experiences to enlighten his teachings.
In addition to physical "asanas” or postures, Yogapaul's classes also incorporate breathwork (pranayama) and relaxation techniques. This comprehensive approach allows students to reconnect with their inner selves, relieving tensions and stresses brought about by modern life.
At Yogapaul, the aim is to bring traditional yoga classes to the community in a safe and supportive manner. With classes offered across South and East Kent and East Sussex, Yogapaul is committed to sharing the transformative benefits of yoga with as many individuals as possible.
