Yogaphysio

I have been Tamara's colleague since 2009. Her integration of yoga and physiotherapy is unique and innovative and puts her students in good hands. She is engaged in constant professional development and is genuinely passionate about her work. We are so lucky to have her bring her talents to Barcelona once every year. I get many insights from our supervisions. Don't miss out on her classes!

I am finally getting around to writing this review!! I last saw Tamara approximately two years ago, but I believe that visit and the advice she gave me were life-changing. I was experiencing a flare-up of back pain and my G.P. wanted me to have more back surgery and had written the referral. But I went and saw Tamara instead and her advice was that, of course I could have the surgery, but if I did, I would still need to get stronger. She helped me to realise that, after many years of chronic back-pain, which led me to severely limit exercise, and extensive surgeries for Endometriosis, I had become quite weak. Surgery might be a quick-fix, but I would still need to do the hard work of strengthening my muscles. Something else she said, also helped me to heal emotionally and spiritually from all the surgery which I had had for Endometriosis, resulting in the removal of my ovaries, Fallopian tubes, uterus, appendix, adhesions and growths the size of golf-balls. Tamara said that the essence of who I was remained intact. She also helped me to understand more about chronic pain and gave me some simple strengthening exercises to do. I didn't need to have the back-surgery and do those simple exercises every day and attend a weekly exercise class.

I have been attending Yogaphysio classes and retreats for 6 years. I am an experienced yogi and find Tam's teaching supports all levels. Tam specifically caters for individuals needs whilst creating a shared experience. The retreats provide the perfect balance of yoga, meditation, introspection and philosophy, all in a magical setting 'Paradise One'. Its part of my yearly re-charge program that I wouldn't miss.

I have been attending Yogaphysio for about 5 years and can thoroughly recommend the teachers and the classes. I go to both Tam's and Sonia's classes and have been to Jamie's and they are all great knowledgeable teachers. I am still in the beginners because there is still such a lot to learn and I am still working on all of those poses! I find that doing yoga once or twice a week helps me with strengthening and flexibility and helps to keep my backache at bay. Also it is a good antidote to cycling or walking which may not work all the muscle groups.

A precious 'yoga studio' located in Auchenflower. I started attending Tamnclasses as a beginner 5 years ago. Now I regularly attend her experienced level classes twice a week.
