Workshops

Yoga workshops

I launched my ‘Union with Tanya’ workshop series in August 2024, offering yoga workshops to busy teams in south Wales and beyond, including hair and beauty salons, corporate teams, community groups and more.

I understand the stressors of trying to balance a 9 to 5 while trying to move intentionally and with mindfulness, and I believe in the transformative power of yoga to improve long-term wellness, health, and community.

My offer is different than traditional team-building workshops. A yoga workshop with me is an opportunity for you and your team to unwind, recharge, and build stronger bonds in a supportive and mindful setting.

How they work

Workships with me are typically two hours long, but timings can be adapted to suit your business and team needs.

During my workshops, you can expect:

  • a short introduction from me to you, sharing the journey I have been on to become a yogi

  • an overview of the benefits of yoga, and how they can help you with your work

  • a guided practice of hatha yoga, including deep stretching, with a focus on movements that will support your day-to-day movement at work

  • a closing guided meditation

  • an intimate ‘safe circle’ experience, where you and your team members will share expressions of gratitude and truly connect with each other together and as individuals

All yoga mats and blocks will be provided, and adjustments can be made for all movements depending on your team members’ skill and physical abilities. After the practice, your team will also each receive a 10-minute practice guide to make use of in their own time or during breaks at work.

The benefits

  • Stress reduction: It is no secret that a happier team means better producitivty. Yoga helps to reduce stress and anxiety, promoting a calm and focussed mind so your team gets the most out of their work.

  • Physical well-being: Improve your team members’ flexibility, strength, and posture — essential for teams spending long hours on their feet or sitting at a desk.

  • Team cohesion: Shared experiences in a positive environment strengthen team relationships and enhance communication. Yoga, at its core, is about union.

My workshops are designed to cater to all skill levels and physical abilities — whether you’ve never stepped on a mat before or you’re an experienced yogi — so everyone can participate and benefit. I can customise the sessions to fit your team’s schedule and specific needs, whether it’s a one-time workshop or a series of classes.

  • The workshop will take place right at your team’s place of work (if space allows), so there's no need to travel to a different location. Please ensure that furniture can be moved to allow space for the workshop in an area of your salon. I will arrive 30 minutes before your session to set up and set the mood!

  • I offer bespoke packages that suit you and your team, whether you're looking for a one-time session or a scheduled series. This means that there is no "one price fits all". Please fill out the form below to chat through your needs.

My journey

It has always been my dream to turn what I love into a living. First, to offer an unmatchable, personal hair salon experience to my clients, and second — to share the joy of yoga with others, and make it a pratice for everyone.

I began my yoga journey in 2016, a practice I didn’t realise I needed at what was a vulnerable and difficult time in my life. Since then, I’ve grown so much physically, mentally, and mindfully. I’ve been both the student and teacher of various yoga retreats, workshops, and classes, and I’m so grateful to now have the confidence and accredited skill to lead people through a practice.

I received my Hatha yoga diploma in 2022 with High Merit, and have since taught over 300 hours of yoga to my students. I currently teach yoga twice a week at 1GYM in Newport, leading a hot yoga class and hatha flow class, and I took the next step in 2024 to open up my workshop offer.

I’ve always dreamt of bringing an incredible yoga experience to as many people as possible — and it brings me so much joy to build a community that honours kindness, intention, and celebrates progress over perfection.

Whether you're starting out or looking to deepen your skills, Tanya's class is the ideal place to find balance and well-being.

  • I started yoga with Tan around 6 months ago. She made me feel so comfortable and shows a variety of moves for different levels in all her classes. I go to Tan's classes knowing that I'm going to have a chance to stretch and relax but also know that every class is different. She always checks in before and after the class and I always know I'm going to have a great peaceful and relaxing time. I cannot recommend Tan's classes enough.

    Bella

  • I was very new to yoga when I first joined Tanya's yoga classes. I'm so glad to have found them; they are the highlight of my week. I have learnt so much from Tanya's classes and they leave me feeling relaxed, more flexible and help with back pain. Tanya is very knowledgeable of yoga positions. She creates new and interesting yoga sequences which keep the classes interesting and fun! Tanya's breath work exercises always leave me feeling more peaceful and clear-minded. Tanya is a very friendly yoga instructor with lovely energy. I thoroughly enjoy Tanya's classes and encourage everyone to join!

  • I love the energy Tanya brings into every class. Her classes always have a great flow to them and leaves me feeling energised and with a sense of wellbeing. I like her personal touch of checking in with everyone before the start and at the end of her classes.

True yoga is not about the shape of your body, but the shape of your life. Yoga is not to be performed; yoga is to be lived.
Yoga doesn’t care about what you have been; yoga cares about the person you are becoming.
