Oliver Richard
Oliver Richard has been teaching yoga since 2018, and practising since 2014. He began his journey at Love Yoga in Sarah Durney’s Mysore room, furthering this in 2017 upon travelling to India for the first time to study with Bharat Shetty of Indea Yoga. His Tuesday evening Mysore class is a perfect complement to Charlie’s morning sessions, with a large overlap between their teaching. This evening slot allows yogis a chance to practice later in the day if they can’t manage the earlier times, and is an inclusive room where all styles of yogic asana are welcome, as well as meditation and pranayama. Oliver is always keen to focus on the parallels between modern science and ancient yogic philosophy, as they both attempt to make sense of what it means to be human. Further, he has a special passion for pranayama and its many effects on the practitioner. Much of this stems from his first class degree in Neuroscience with Psychology from Aberdeen University, 2011.

Whether you are new to yoga or an experienced practitioner, this sequence is a fun challenge.
