Testimonials

“One year's worth of therapy in an hour. I cannot express how much Rachel and her treatment of yoga therapy has helped me. Over the past 5 years I’ve had some rather traumatic experiences happen in my life. My trauma left me with high levels of anxiety and a body that was tensing up, and after a year of speaking therapy I was no closer to my healthy self. Rachel listened to my words and my body, she gave me a few exercises to follow that I can easily fit into my daily life. Within a week my body was loosening and I could move in a way that I haven’t been able to do in years. Rachel is a gift to the world, and I can face the world lighter and happier. She will always be my go to person if I’m ever in need of help.”

“I've delayed writing this review simply because I've been unsure of how I could express in words just how incredible I've found Rachel and my experience working with her. I've had the privilege of working with Rachel as one of her yoga therapy clients, and it was transformative, to say the least. She has a vast understanding of her field and did such an incredible job of distilling it in a way that best resonated with me. I've always been a science-minded person, perhaps a bit sceptical of healing/spiritual practices, but Rachel's ability to use a research-backed approach to explain the physiological effects and benefits of the tools she introduced to me was exceptionally helpful. Over a 2-month period of working with Rachel and utilizing the custom tools and practices that she introduced to me, I've transitioned from a socially-removed shut-down individual back to someone who is connected, alive, and thriving once again. One of the beauties of working with her is that she was so great at listening, understanding, and relating - ultimately providing me with tools (that I didn't know I needed) to work on discovering myself and progressing toward happiness once again. Even if you're new to (or a bit sceptical of) this type of work or these practices, trust me, you owe it to yourself to connect with Rachel! It just might change your life forever.”

“I have had a 1 to 1 session with Rachel and can highly recommend her work. She is a beautiful person who is extremely caring and has developed her devotion to yoga through her own life experience and healing. She was one of the yoga teachers at a retreat I attended in Cambodia, and was always professional, caring and knowledgeable in her guidance. She is a totally delightful lady who who is also a natural healer.”

- Joanne, New Zealand

“Occasionally in life you meet someone for 30 seconds and you know that there is something amazing about them. Rachel struck me in that way. I staggered my way into a wellbeing workshop that incorporated some yoga, mindful teachings and meditation. I was a bundle of stress, tears and fears, years of anxiety and worries and Rachel gave out what I can only describe as a beautiful, calm ‘it's ok…everything really is ok’ kind of energy. I see something so special in Rachel, that whenever something goes wrong in my life, I picture her and ache for her teachings and sense of peace. There is something magical about her presence - she really does pour out healing and love. I really recommend her yoga, mindful teachings and wellbeing workshops. You will come out different having had the privilege of meeting her. I’m struggling with words to try and capture the essence, but I hope I have come close.”

“I’m so glad I got to experience the magic and wisdom of Rachel. She is truly gifted at what she does, and I would recommend her to anyone seeking an embodied, holistic approach to therapy.”

- Brearna, Australia

“I have had 1 to 1 yoga therapy with Rachel to help my anxiety and stress levels. She is so warm and kind to work with, and has such a wide knowledge of yoga, anxiety, the body and how they all connect and work together. Working with Rachel has actually changed my life. I now practice yoga, meditation, and breathwork. These all help keep my stress levels down and in turn my anxiety levels down. I feel more peaceful and balanced. A lot of my thought processes and outlooks on life have also changed from working with Rachel and the way she frames life. I have also attended one of Rachel's retreats and it was truly blissful. I always look forward to practicing with Rachel and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.”

- Dana, UK

“Where to even begin? Rachel has been the absolute BEST to work with 1 to 1! The connection, assistance, and calmness she possesses allows you to truly learn and experience the healing and release. Rachel's calming presence and tone allow you to fully embrace the breathing exercises. It's also a bonus that she doesn't laugh when your animals check on you while practicing!”

- Erika, USA

“I took my first ever yoga class with Rachel years ago and thanks to her I fell in love with this practice. Because of the pandemic, I then had to practice online. But among all the other options I had, I chose Rachel because I loved her flows so much and I always felt supported during her classes. I also had the opportunity to attend a “virtual wellness” event with her, and it was definitely one of the most relaxing classes I ever had. Overall Rachel is a brilliant facilitator; I felt great after all of her classes, and she has always helped me to relax and to release tensions I didn’t even know I had.”

- Sophie, France

“Rachel is such a knowledgeable, humble and grounding person with a gorgeous heart! I attended a few yoga classes and workshops (including Reflective Journaling, Anatomy of Breath, Yoga Therapy for Stress & Anxiety & Mindfulness for Modern Living) she led at Hariharalaya in Cambodia. I enjoyed so much every single class and workshop she offered and learned so many practical & powerful tools that I have brought with me since then. Rachel’s beautiful energy always brings light and loving awareness into the space. She’s one of the best yoga teachers I have ever known.”

- Tingting, China

“I have attended two mindfulness & yoga therapy courses run by Rachel. I have found them to be enormously beneficial to me. Rachel is a very warm and friendly person and because of this, the courses are calm and peaceful. They run like clockwork due to Rachel's hard work and the content is very interesting and useful. I can't recommend Rachel and her courses highly enough. I am looking forward to attending many more in the future.”

- Alison, UK

“Although I have been practicing yoga for many years, yoga therapy with Rachel has brought all the puzzle pieces together; asana, breathing, mindfulness, even chanting, to benefit my home practice in a holistic way. Rachel instructs you with clarity on a range of skills, so you feel confident to try them in your own practice in a realistic, non-judgmental way. She holds a safe place, where you feel secure, valued and able to grow. She makes yoga accessible for anybody. If you were thinking of a class to challenge your mind and body, Rachel meets you where you’re at.”

- Jennifer, UK

“A wonderful workshop delivered by an outstanding facilitator who provides a comfortable, safe environment in which you are encouraged to learn and find your own ways to practice. I thoroughly recommend workshops with Rachel.”

- Adele, UK

“Rachel is amazing. I cannot thank her enough for leading and introducing me to her classes, especially her 8-week Yoga For The Mind course. Rachel is dedicated to her craft and always approaches her classes in a bubbly and welcoming manner. She has guided me through difficult times in my life and I am excited for the future to attend more of her wonderful sessions. I owe it to her for aiding me in changing my mindset on various parts of my life and for rediscovering my love for yoga and mindfulness.”

- Elspeth, UK

“What an incredible experience it is to be taught yoga by Rachel! She is extremely knowledgeable, clear in teaching, but also caring and kind, which makes the class so special. Besides being my yoga teacher for 6 full days of retreat, she gave me a 1 to 1 session and created a personalised daily practice for me. Her clear and caring guidance and thorough explanation paired with her ever positive vibe is an experience I wholeheartedly recommend!”

- Gergana, Bulgaria

“Rachel is an excellent teacher who really cares about her students. Her classes are truly inspiring, her voice is soothing and she has years of dedicated learning and practice.”

- Joel, USA

“Rachel is such an amazing human being and such a great yoga therapist. She has a deep understanding of human anatomy and lots of personal experience which has brought her to the level she is now - a natural healer. She really has it inside, and I believe that her mission in life is to help people. She is loving and caring. Her voice is like an angel and she really takes yoga to another level - to a therapy for the mind, body and soul.”

- Maria, Bulgaria

“I'm very lucky to know Rachel. Rachel’s Yoga for Anxiety workshop is definitely one of the best workshops I have ever been to! It was incredibly thorough and well-designed. As a psychological research student, I struggled with anxiety myself. Rachel gave a very intensive literature review about anxiety and its mechanisms, followed by research-based and individualised practical tools, as well as how yoga can be integrated in anxiety management. I strongly suggest you study with Rachel—you will definitely be fascinated by how much knowledge and work she has put into anxiety research, and how amazing and supportive she is for people. Rachel, with her own experience and intensive work, will give you a yoga workshop with rock-solid evidence-based science and practical yoga tools for you and your students. You will wish to take all of her workshops more and more!”

- Dung, Vietnam

“I was so pleased with my session with Rachel. She’s very easy to talk with, I felt supported and I love the way she thoughtfully responded to my needs and gently led me through the perfect practices. I’m looking forward to seeing the benefits of these in my life.

- Siobhan, UK

“Rachel is an incredible teacher who really lives her practice and effortlessly connects and adapts to your needs. Her holistic and personalised approach is not only refreshing, but effective and powerful. She draws on both yogic and mindfulness traditions, as well as years of personal practice and her own life experiences. This makes her incredibly knowledgeable, and relatable at the same time. Any time spent with Rachel is a true gift, but working 1 to 1 with her provides a container for transformation and growth that just isn’t possible in group classes, nor widely available in studios. If you are looking to make real change or simply start yoga right, I couldn’t think of a more adept, caring, and compassionate guide.”

- Faye, UK

“As a yoga teacher myself I gain so much inspiration from Rachel’s classes. Her teachings are clear, concise and she has a way of teaching that makes you feel completely in the present moment. She’s spent so many years devoted to learning and it really shines through in her teachings. She’s mindful, grounded and has the best British accent in all of the land. If you have the opportunity to learn from her - take it. I assure you'll leave feeling inspired and a little more at ease.”

- Jess, USA

“I met Rachel while she was teaching at Hariharalaya's yoga and meditation retreat. Her instructions during group classes were so precise and sensitive, and so beautifully delivered that they made you really connect with your breath and take your time to enjoy each pose. I would say that this experience completely changed how I approached yoga and meditation. I had the pleasure of having 1 to 1 sessions with her as well. She tailor-made a yoga practice focused on my personal needs that has become my go-to daily practice since then. During lockdown I booked an online session focused on breathwork and meditation that she led professionally and intuitively despite the distance. She taught me several breathing techniques and she could tell which ones would work for me based on how my breath was and how I felt. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to start their journey into yoga, deepen their practice or work through their anxiety in these uncertain times.”

- Laura, Spain

“Rachel is the kind of teacher who brings a sense of calm just being in her presence. She is genuine, heartfelt and continuously evolving in her own practice and offering as a teacher. I’ve had the privilege of connecting with Rachel at Hariharalaya, where she led yoga retreats in an integral community, supporting others on the journey of investigating the many aspects of yoga - dharma, asana, pranayama, dance, communing with nature, selfless service, and beyond. She has a beautiful way of making ancient teachings relevant to a modern lifestyle and is refreshingly humble in her approach. I highly recommend Rachel for anyone who is interested in beginning or deepening their practice.”
