I have dipped into various different styles of yoga over the years. Coming back to live in Tavistock for family reasons I found a yoga class at the Printworks with Gem Yoga. I started going weekly and found it helped me focus better and helped me balance my emotions…
Going to yoga regularly helped me to accept my body as unique to myself, and have gratitude for the ability to move my body is so many different and expressive ways. It also made me realise I need to move in order to stay focused and have a calm mind.
I have recently completed the 200 hours Vinyasa Flow Teacher Training Qualification with Gem Yoga Teacher Training which was an amazing experience.
As well as yoga, I am also an artist and work primarily in mosaics and collages. My artist website is www.aliyahgator.com where you can see some of my artworks.
In my spare time I like travelling, falling off my paddleboard and going out for coffee.
