and the shadows fall behind you...Maori proverb
Jane was originally introduced to Sivananda yoga whilst a theatre undergraduate.
However, it wasn't until she left the theatre behind and moved to Spain in the 1990s,
that she began her practice in earnest and on returning to the UK she set up YogaSpace,
an independent organisation set up to promote yoga according to Patanjali's eight limbed system.
She now runs Manchester Yoga Shala as a collective with group of other teachers.
She has been fortunate to be able to study with many inspiring teachers most influentially Donna Farhi,
with whom she recently completed teacher training in Canada and whose work continues to
enliven and inform her own practice. She also continues to be inspired by the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
and all her students.
