Instructor

Niamh Jones is a very dedicated yoga teacher and practitioner.

She has a lovely 'easy going personality' and takes the time with each person to ensure they understand the practices that she is teaching and also encourages each person in a wonderful way to reach towards your own potential.



Niamh Jones is from Co. Meath origionally, and moved to Galway in 2001.

She lived in San Fransisco for a while where she completed her Bikram teacher training course.



Two years later Niamh also completed a separate Ashtanga yoga teacher training.

Since then she teaches Bikram yoga in Galway and is able to draw upon her experience of the stronger Ashtanga yoga while still having a huge experience of teaching softer and more accessible variations of the postures to beginners or those who are less fit.



Niamh's Bikram and Ashtanga experience also give her the ability to teach stronger and more challenging sequences to those in the class who are able for it.



Niamh has taught many times at the Burren Yoga and Meditation Centre in the past few years, and also attend many of the weekend workshops we have here at the centre.



Niamh's classes are tuned to each person within the class, so that each person practices to their own ability. The classes are a combination of getting in touch with one's inner self, letting go of external stresses, and are also challenging and fun.



Niamh's Bikram classes are hot! good fun, and exhilarating.

This weekend is an ideal weekend to energize, have fun and feel rejuvenated!
