Teacher/Group Leader James Guiseppi...... trained and teaches internationally yet is an Ibizan resident too.....
James was working as a trader inthe City in '95 when he discovered that yoga could relieve chronic back painand assist in calming a restless mind. He had completed one teacher trainingcourse with Sivananda in 2002 when he was thankfully made redundant and beganteaching full-time. The decade of City life gave him an invaluableunderstanding of the challenges of working in high-pressure environments.During the following five years he also gained Yoga Alliance certification andtaught in yoga centres and health clubs across London as well as organising hisown classes and yoga holidays. In 2006 he went to India for six months'intensive study of Astanga in Mysore and trained with Sri K Pattabhi Jois.
James' teaching style is an amalgamation of the wide range of yogainstruction he has personally experienced and his classes are accessible to allwhilst he tailors each session to the individual needs and abilities of hisstudents.
