Yoga - breath, meditation, asana
Miles’s yoga teaching is principally a Hatha style of yoga.
He took his first teacher training in Anusara yoga with Bridget Woods-Kramer, receiving his Yoga Alliance 200 hours yoga certification in May 2013. His second 200 hours Yoga Alliance teacher training was with Manel Rodrigues, Hatha Precision & Flow in Lisbon, 2017.
Miles frequently attends workshops, retreats and trainings in the UK and internationally to further deepen his knowledge and practice of yoga. In particular, he is frequent attendee at the Scuola Yoga Camerino with Iyengar teacher Karin Montali, from whom he continues to learn the principles of alignment, and takes retreats and classes with Jean Hall, in pursuit of connection to self though flow and sensation.

Through a sequence of postures, or asana, coordinating breath with meditative movement, Miles aims to create space in the mind and body.
Acrobatic & partner yoga
Miles’s practice also incorporates Acroyoga and partner work.
Working safely with others can allow the exploration of postures that are not always accessible in a solo practice.
Partner yoga can be active, dynamic and acrobatic, or passive and therapeutic in a supported state - in Acroyoga terms 'solar' and 'lunar'.
While traditional yoga may be considered an internal exploration of how we connect to and balance our self, partner yoga is an outward-looking practice and focusses on building a connection to others directly in balanced movement.
