ABOUT US
THE YOGA LOCAL BIG PURPOSE
OUR YOGA business BRINGS TOGETHER…
All kinds of people who are looking for more. More to life, more to their Yoga practice, more to themselves!
The Yoga we teach here is about way more than fitness. It is about mastering our minds and energy, so we can uplevel all we are. True yogis face their problems, work past them, find their lightness, and grow into all they can be.
If you want a practice that will change your life, not just your body, you are in the right place.
YOGA LOCAL | A PLACE TO:
- Create the discipline and routines needed to both carve out and commit to the time it takes us to practice Yoga.
- Understand our constitutional types so we can choose the right kind of Yoga postures or meditation practices that meet our individual needs.
- Cultivate the mind-set and feeling of self-worth that will help us lock in consistent healthy habits and practices including but not limited to:
- a daily meditation practice we won’t want to miss
- a dedicated Yoga asana practice we can’t wait to gift our body every day
- breathing practices, to bring the energy that will get us to where we want to go.
- Create a like-minded community of Yoga, meditation and Ayurvedic practitioners who will encourage each other to ask the important questions. So they can be curious and clear on what they want and how they want to show up for their one, glorious life.
SO THAT WE CAN:
- All be free to live well and travel well in our bodies.
- Navigate and bring peace to our mind and remove the obstacles that get in the way of living our lives to the full.
- All reshape our identity if we choose and recraft and rebuild our dreams.
- Adventure whole-heartedly into new things and new possibilities
- Always find our way back to balance, whatever life throws at us, and maintain the energy to pursue a more meaningful, purpose-fuelled life.
- Make sure we never forget who we are again and remember to always be in harmony with the greater universe we share, evolving not only for ourselves, but bringing benefits to all we share the world with.

Moon, Sun, Fire Hatha Yoga Teacher
For most of my life I’ve identified myself as a journalist (hack, writer, messenger – take your pick), but these days my heart is in the practice and science of yoga as a complete system for personal growth and expansion.
I’ve made some massive shifts in my life and my mission today is to help those souls who are ready to get curious about their own innate potential. If you want to read more about my ‘why’ do hop over here. Get to the end and you’ll be rewarded with the link to a FREE pre class starter course.
Go get it. Life’s about to get really interesting.
Yoga Teacher
Laura Trevino Holmes
Teaches
Restorative Yoga Teacher
Laura is trained in Vinyasa, Restorative and Pre-natal yoga. Originating from Northamptonshire, her passion for yoga grew when she moved half-way across the world to travel central and south America, finding that her yoga practice was a great way to ground herself whilst being on the move. She now endeavours to pass that grounding energy on to her students, allowing them a moment of calm and introspection in an at times frantic world.
After recently becoming a new mum to baby Rafa, Laura now also teaches post-natal and mum and baby yoga too.
Yoga Teacher | Cacao Ritual Leader
Peter Hilland
Teaches
Moon, Sun, Fire Hatha Yoga Teacher
Peter is the newest addition to the team, with his roots in elemental yoga and Cacao ceremony his classes have a very earthy and comforting feel. He has recently trained in the Moon, Sun, Fire progression and is eager to merge his previous teaching experience with this transformative path. You’ll see Peter’s classes very regularly, and every now-and-then you’ll see one of his beautiful Cacao ceremonies pop up on the timetable.
Try one of his classes for a wonderful combination of spiritual and personal progression.

Moon, Sun, Fire Hatha Yoga Teacher
Hey, I am Josie’s daughter and used to be a full-time teacher here at Yoga Local. I’ve now moved onto a new adventure but teaching is still a huge passion of mine. I have my own daily practice that keeps me on my own yoga journey as I explore my own path in life.
I will be teaching from time-to-time, covering classes and taking part in workshops. You may also see me at some future retreats!
It’s likely I will see you in the studio when I’m there to take part in classes, I won’t be able to stay away from the studio for too long…
If you’re interested in a theraputic approach, don’t hesitate to ask me about going deeper into your healing journey.
