About Me
My love affair with yoga began in 1999. I started practicing yoga in Australia, New Zealand and Thailand. The more that I learn, the more my passion grows, to the point that now I want to share this wonderful discipline called yoga with everyone.
In 2014 I founded Jaime's Body Mind Yoga and my mission is to change the world with yoga!

About Yoga
There are five principles of yoga. The postures or asanas, the breathing techniques, complete relaxation, the yoga diet, and positive thinking. All exercise can make you feel good, but yoga will make you feel great in both mind and body. With regular practise you will see an improvement in strength, flexibility, balance and posture. Your weak areas will get stronger, and your tight areas will become more flexible, your mind will find new clarity and focus. In addition to this, you will also enjoy improvement to your quality of sleep and will see your stress and anxiety levels reduce.

Jaime’s Body Mind Yoga in Balsall Common is an Ashtanga/ Hatha mix of yoga with the emphasis on flowing sequences. Traditionally Ashtanga is an athletically demanding style of yoga whereas hatha has more accessible postures. This combination means that there is something for everyone in my class.
Students have an opportunity to really connect with their bodies through movement (asanas) and breath work (pranayama) as well as increasing their spiritual understanding of yoga and themselves bringing about peace and balance. Jaime's BodyMind Yoga!
Classes are suitable for beginners but those with experience will also find themselves challenged. My classes are all inclusive.
Yoga days are GOOD days!
