Emma Spencer-Goodier

Biography

Emma remains always the student. She has been steeping in the ancient teachings of yoga for nearly thirty years. Her teaching is a heartfelt wish to share yoga in ways that supports a well lived life. Curiously, uniquely with dedication and devotion. She is the founder of the Island School of Yoga, offering training & support for yoga teachers

Emma’s approach reflects her own journey of yoga and has evolved into a slow flowing, healing therapeutic exploration of the hatha yoga path, providing the sound foundations for pranayama and meditation. Her long history of teaching, first in sailing and then in yoga means that Emma aims to guide and support students in their personal growth through yoga.

What makes her classes different is that they’re more than a workout, or wellbeing bolt on: they’re an invitation to live yoga. To feel body, breath and landscape converge.
