Teacher Team

Jasmine Badr

Jasmine is a Yoga, Qigong and Somatics teacher. Her classes weave together yogic movements and ideas with traditional Chinese medicine philosophies and practises.

After many years travelling, including some time living in the Amazon rain forest in Peru her classes and offerings are very much nature led. She believes that nature is our greatest teacher and the very foundation of our being is to live in alignment with the cycles and patterns that govern all life.

When coming to a class expect to find an inclusive, safe space that allows you to feel embodied, to awaken the senses and to re discover your innate wisdom. 

Gillian Evans

Gillian has been practising yoga for over thirty years. She is passionate about the transformational potential of yoga and leads yoga classes and workshops in London and Manchester.
Inspired and trained at Triyoga by Anna Ashby and Joey Miles in the alignment-based method of hatha yoga, Gillian guides students through 90-minute classes that conquer fatigue, cultivate strength, vitality, and good posture, improve mood and increase body and mind awareness.

Gillian is also an Urban Anthropologist. She lectures in Social Anthropology at the University of Manchester, and is preoccupied, like all anthropologists, with the question of what it means to be human. Gillian lends this question to her enquiry into the yoga tradition, and brings a unique anthropological perspective to her teaching practice, summer and winter yoga retreats and to workshops for fellow yoga teachers. She is a member of the teaching faculty of the Advanced Teacher Training programme led by Anna Ashby at Triyoga.

Gillian would love to show you how yoga can transform your life.

Sarah Logue

Yoga is about connection & community! Sarah loves to weave this in all her classes, encouraging you to cultivate a practice that is uniquely yours, making the space for a couple giggles and sighs along the way.

Expect a creative flow weaved with a few challenging postures, a philosophical theme & a steady mindful breath; leaving the mat, a little calmer, stronger & lifted. 

Sarah specialises in Vinyasa, Rocket & Children’s Yoga, and has also trained in Trauma informed practice, Bhakti Yoga & Yin. (460RYT)
