Teaching Portfolio
Whether you are an experienced yogi or new to the practice, Briony’s teaching is all about self discovery.
Briony came to yoga over 10 years ago to help combat the stress of working in the 24/7 corporate world, travelling extensively and commuting regularly.
The sudden death of her father meant stepping off the beaten path and carving a new one.
After becoming a teacher and founding her business Breathe Bend Believe Yoga over 8 years ago, she now teaches classes in Brighton & Hove and hosts local and international retreats throughout the year.
A mum of two, she is also pre/postnatally qualified and having taught and practiced throughout two pregnancies, Briony champions building movement confidence in mothers, both during and after pregnancy.
We move to explore and every one of my classes invites the opportunity to move inward as well as outwards”
“The way I teach is rooted in my belief that there is no one approach to anything in life or yoga. Self discovery requires the blurring of lines and pushing of boundaries. Taking the traditional and asking questions of it and more importantly, taking what we think we know about ourselves and asking questions. ”
Specialist Field
Briony’s specialist field is yoga for athletes.
Briony is the yoga teacher at Premier League football club Brighton and Hove Albion and has spent the last five seasons working across the First, U21’s and Women’s Teams.
Having completed trainings with Sarah Ramsden (yoga teacher at Manchester United and Manchester City) she is passionate about helping elite and non-elite athletes better integrate strength, mobility and mindset development into their training, with the aim of helping them do what they love for longer.
“Working with Briony on a regular basis has greatly helped me improve my physical condition in how I feel day in day out. Not just on the pitch but off it too.
She talks you through every step of the way and there’s never any pressure to be the most flexible, it’s all about what is best for you. You leave every session feeling great and in a much better place than before you started!”
