In the early days of Lila's yoga teaching journey she lived for six years in Yoga ashrams and centres in India and Canada.  This time was a deep and full immersion into the yogic way of life, in both practice and study.  Lila worked closely with her senior teachers in both assisting and teaching yoga students & teachers from across the world.

Lila has trained extensively with Sivananda (Hatha, Raja, Karma, Jnana and Bhakti yoga), Krishnamacharya (Vedic Chanting/Sanskrit) and Usha Devi (Iyengar).

As a result of years of practice, study and embracing yoga as a way of life, Lila is inspired to share the wisdom and joy of yoga from the heart.  Lila spends regular periods of time in India studying and deepening her own practice.  Kirtan and Bhakti Yoga, the path of Love are a strong focus in LIlas personal practice and bring much joy and happiness in her heart!! 

Lila has a highly individual and sensitive approach which resonates deeply with her students. Based in the South West of England, Lila  teaches weekly yoga classes, workshops, meditation & yogic study courses, international yoga retreats and yoga teacher training in India and Bristol, UK.
