Anika Severns
Why did you start with yoga?
My mum taught me yoga from a young age so it always felt like a part of my life.
Why did you become a yoga teacher?
I was working in a yoga studio (behind the scenes) and wanted to deepen my own practice by taking a YTT. In the end I fell in love with teaching!
What do you love most about teaching yoga?
The beautiful connections and joy. There is such a gorgeous energy within a yoga class, plus the practice of teaching is a great mirror to my own practice.
What styles of yoga do you teach?
Vinyasa mainly, but I’ve also taught Surf and some Ashtanga a long time ago.
Can you describe your personal teaching style in a few words?
I like quick flows paired with long asana holds to really sink in and find hang-time in a unique way.
What is your favourite song for Savasana?
Anything by Ludovico Einaudi, his music is so magical.
What is your favourite book or movie?
Depending on the day? I’ve always loved Pride & Prejudice
