I am a student of Rachel James’ Yoga class at the NOA Centre in Summertown.  I think she is an excellent Yoga Instructor.  She often asks for feedback from her students and her classes are varied from week to week to meet their needs as well as covering core exercises and postures.  She is very friendly and I find […]

At that time Rachel said that she had limited experience of working with cancer patients, particularly one like me that had a […]

Newly retired I started yoga with Rachel in January 2008.  I was the end of a career, my new teacher Rachel was at the beginning of her career. That I am still going, every Monday, to practice with her and to learn from her is a testament both to her as a person and as […]
