SERVICES Tony Parsons teaches small classes in Redhill/Reigate, and private classes throughout Surrey. He also runs retreats in Nerja, on the boundary of the Almijara Mountains and the Costa Del Sol. Classes are open to all levels of experience and emphasise individual attention. Tony also specialises in Children with Special Needs and back/joint problems.
He has practised Yoga (Iyengar, Vini... ) for more than 20 years, but was it was in 2001, after a back injury, that he was fortunate to be introduced to Scaravelli Yoga by Mary Addison and then Ed Fellows and Sophy Hoare. Since 2005 he has been a member of Sophy’s weekly class, and has attended all Diane Long’s workshops with her. He completed a BTEC Professional Diploma in teaching Yoga in the Scaravelli style at Morley college with Rosamunde Jordan and Marilyn Freedman.
Tony is a naturally sympathetic teacher of long experience, and prefers to take an individual approach with students.
* The practice is a continuous exploration of the relationship between parts of the body, the ground and the space around us. It is about finding a wholeness of movement, coming from the spine, through the joints and bringing us back to the spine. We develop awareness so that we can feel more, impose less, and allow the intelligence of the body to reveal itself. Emphasis is not on achieving postures but using the breath to release tension. Undoing the grip of the big surface muscles invites core muscles to gradually assume deeper, more subtle control.
