About
Hi there,
I specialise in Private Yoga classes, Chair Yoga classes and Mat Yoga classes - either in-person in Guernsey, or else online via Zoom.
The Chair Yoga classes are held at St. Martin's Community Centre. The next block of classes will be starting on Tuesday 7th March. This will be a 5-week block of classes running until 4th April. Please see 'Chair Yoga' page for further details.
The Private Yoga classes are 1:1, instructor-client sessions and these take place either in the comfort of your own home, at a venue of your choice, or online.
Private classes might suit you if:
* Yoga are new to Yoga or looking to deepen your current practice
* You would like the benefits of Yoga but are reluctant to go to a group class
* You would like to fit Yoga around your schedule
* You would like a Yoga practice tailored to you/your specific goals
As a certified and insured Yoga teacher, and someone who has practiced Yoga themselves for around 12 years, I can tailor the classes to suit your goals. I offer the following types of Yoga: Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga; Mat Yoga; Chair Yoga; Over 65s Yoga; Children's Yoga. I teach Yoga to a range of ages and abilities- from children to adults over 90 years of age!
The classes aim to bring health, balance, peace and strength to the body and mind.
There are a myriad of benefits to practicing Yoga; from releasing pain and tension in the body to increasing flexibility and strength.
Having explored different forms of exercise, various spiritual paths, and having studied the anatomy and science behind Yoga, I believe that Yoga is one of the best practices anyone can do. Yoga is arguably the ultimate mind-body workout; the mindfulness, breathing techniques and meditation involved in the practice, means that Yoga works on the physical body in a sustainable and careful way, making it one of the best forms of exercise you can do over the long term.
If you are interested in booking a private lesson, joining a community centre class, or if you would simply like some more information, then please get in touch via email at oliviachesney@hotmail.co.uk or alternatively you can send me a message on 07896 807 936.
Many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you,
Olivia

''I had the absolute pleasure of attending one of Olivia's yoga classes this week and am keen to express my love, appreciation and recommendation for this amazing young yoga teacher. Yoga means ''unity'' and relates to the connection we all naturally have between our mind, body and spirit. Olivia's yoga class was the perfect blend of physical activity, mental relaxation and spiritual connection. It was a very well planned class with options for those more (or less) physically able, making Olivia's teaching suitable for all levels and all ages. Her voice and instruction was compassionate, nurturing and relevant.
Olivia is clearly well trained in her yoga practice and is enjoying the confidence and creativity that comes with experience.
I am a yoga teacher myself, yet the level of relaxation I felt after Olivia's class was greater than usual. I could really feel the benefits in my mind, body and soul. Just what the doctor ordered!
Thank you Olivia for sharing your love, light and yoga with us at 'Heal Yourself to Happiness Yoga and Energy Healing Retreats in Spain'. It was an honour and pleasure to work with you and I wish you so much love, success and joy with your yoga classes and other soulful endeavors.'

''Olivia makes me feel very comfortable during our class. I had never done yoga before and have been very pleased with the yoga I have done with Olivia. I find she has a very reassuring teaching style.
Something that I really like about Olivia's class is that yoga is clearly something that she is passionate about and believes in the benefits of. She is keen to individualise the experience and make sure you get what you want from it.
She is welcoming and flexible about the format of the class (such as the music, more time for reflection, more physical etc)
As someone who has no previous experience, I would particularly recommend classes with Olivia if you are new to yoga or haven't done it for a while-perhaps if you're a bit nervous and don't know what to expect! She will put you at ease whilst teaching you the yoga skills you are looking for'.

''I found Olivia's yoga amazing. Not only was she amazing with the teaching of Yoga, but she was kind and someone I connected with as a person too. I think yoga isn't just about being able to teach, it's also about creating a comfortable atmosphere, which she does with her love for yoga. Thank you Olivia x''
