Lena Shah

I am a Lena Shah, a Mindfulness and Yoga teacher, specialising in Yin Yoga and yoga for stress, trauma, burnout and anxiety. I am passionate about empowering others to discover their own impetus to freedom and fulfilment through body work, having changed my lifestyle and career after 14 years of working in the corporate industry and experiencing my own burnout. I work with clients on a short and long-term basis, using a mix of personally tailored sequences, poetry, music, affirmations and guided relaxations to help clients regulate their nervous system and increase their awareness to help emotional healing. My clients range from 17-80 year olds. I also run a weekly studio class in South West London.
