Hi, I’m Chloe, a Lushtums Pregnancy Yoga Teacher. My aim is to create a space where women can feel empowered, at peace and confident to have positive birth experiences leading to positive parenting experiences. Classes are all about joining a community of like minded women, pausing our busy lives and finding love and connection in this special time before our bundles of joy arrive. Expect preparation for birth including breath-work and pelvic floor exercises, some lovely stretches and strengthening to ease aches and pains, followed by a deep relaxation to bring a good night’s sleep and peace to the rest of your week.

I began my yoga journey in Senegal, taking time for myself and moving in the early mornings before the village would wake up. Witnessing the benefits this practice brought to my mind, body, and soul inspired me to go deeper, leading me to complete a 200-hour Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training in France in 2020. Alongside this, I explored the power of breath and resilience through an initiation into cold exposure and breathwork practices. Since 2023, I have continued to expand my understanding of asanas by studying anatomy and neuroscience, focusing on how neurology connects to the physical practice of yoga and how this knowledge can support students in their own journeys. For me, yoga is a space to explore movement in unexpected ways, a playground where I can fall, experiment, and allow emotions to rise and pass. It is a practice that continually brings me back to my authentic self.

I’ve been practicing yoga for over 10 years and studying at Yogasara, Bristol since 2022, about to complete the advanced training in early 2026. I’ve taught at Bristol University, Yogasara, online and in person at yoga studios and in Greece. I’ve undertaken many trainings in trauma and have a trauma- informed approach to teaching yoga. I’ve also undertaken significant study into transpersonal theory: spirituality, psychology and Non-Violent Communication. I practise meditation daily under Will Evans, who takes a, Advaita Vedanta, Non- dual Shaiva Tantra and Buddhist non- dual approaches.  The Yogasara method that I studied under comprises asana (posture) practice in a Krama Vinyasana style (krama meaning step-by-step and Vinyasa being a flow state within postural practice), as well as the other integral aspects of yoga and ritual: meditation, breathwork, study of Western and Eastern philosophy, mantra, conscious dance, science (anatomy, neuroscience, Myofascial Integration), emotional integration and awareness of wider ecological and social issues, with a personal interest/ specialization in gender and LGBTQ+ issues.

Chloe fell in love with Yoga and meditation when on a retreat in Spain. After feeling the immense benefits of the practises she commented to the teacher, if everyone started the day like this, there would be world peace. That was 14 years ago! Outside of sharing these practises, Chloe enjoys spending time in nature and learning about herbalism, is a hobby level climber and runner, and above all hanging out with her dog Nacho who you may well meet at the studio from time to time.

Over a decade ago, I joined my first yoga class. Over time, the practice grew in importance to me, reaching far beyond the physical postures into a more reflective and mindful way of being. It became less about what I do on the mat and more about how I carry that awareness into life. This ongoing journey has helped me find greater presence, patience and self-inquiry. What I love more than anything is to share my teachings and spread the wisdom that has been passed down to me over the years. I’m passionate about creating a space where you can reconnect with yourself, explore your edge with compassion, and experience yoga as more than just movement—but as a pathway to inner-peace. In 2020, I completed my first Hatha yoga teacher training, and went on to complete a 300-hour training in Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa at the end of 2024. My teaching is rooted in the ancient traditions of yoga, blending mindful movement, breath, and awareness to support both strength and inner balance.
