Louisa Thomas

Yoga Instructor

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4564″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Louisa Thomas teaches yoga, Pilates and tailor-made Mindful Movement classes. With a comprehensive understanding of anatomy and a keen interest in biomechanics, Louisa’s classes combine strong but accessible exercises designed to challenging and transform the way your body moves.

 

Louisa has been teaching yoga since 2007, when she completed her training with Sivananda Yoga in India. Following the birth of her second child in 2014, Louisa found Pilates. Amazed at the way the gentle but controlled movements helped to heal her post-natal body, Louisa embarked on a teacher training course with Polestar Pilates, which combines principles of classical Pilates with cutting-edge findings in physical therapy.

 

In 2017 Louisa completed the EveryBody Biomechanics course, created by world-renowned biomechanic Katy Bowman. The same year, Louisa also became one of just 10 people in the world certified to teach Restore Your Core, a yoga-based programme dedicated to improving core strength, finding ideal pelvic floor function and learning to exercise in an optimal and sustainable way.

 

Combining the newest insights from movement science with ancient Eastern teachings, Louisa designed Mindful Movement classes. These tailor-made 1-1 classes are aimed at anyone wanting to restore movement, function and control to their body through intelligent use of the breath with specific exercises. The classes are particularly beneficial to pregnant and post-natal women, or those recovering from an injury.

 

Louisa has been teaching weekly classes at Yorkshire County Cricket Club since 2012, and more recently has worked with Leeds United’s first team players in their pre-season conditioning schedule. She has been a birth doula since 2013 and facilitates birth preparation classes.

 

Her classes are revealing and informative, challenging yet accessible and always filled with plenty of laughter.
