Alastair has been practising yoga since 2000, initially finding that attending a regular yoga class proved a great antidote to the stresses and strains of employment at a senior level in the Jersey finance industry. Always curious to learn more, Alastair has tried many different styles of yoga during the past sixteen years, including Iyengar, Ashtanga and Bikram. More recently, he has been increasingly drawn to the uniqueness of each human body and the skeletal variations we all have, and how this can impact on our respective yoga asana practices. This led him to Paul Grilley and Sarah Powers, two world renowned yoga teachers based in the United States with a speciality in Yin Yoga, a slow, gentle but deep practice, which complements the more established yang practices favoured in the western world.

Alastair believes passionately that yoga should be inclusive and practised by everyone, not just those blessed naturally with a wide range of motion in their limbs, and is keen to encourage students to learn more about their own skeletal structures through his guided practice.
