Stephen completed his RYT 200-hour hatha vinyasa training with Yoga Dublin in April 2024, following a 100-hour hatha training in Goa, India, in October 2023. Stephen threads traditional and contemporary influences thoughtfully, aspiring to be truthful to yoga's roots and surprising for today's practitioners.

For Stephen, yoga is a practice in compassion.

Allowing us to better observe our outer and inner worlds, it facilitates us in listening to, befriending and growing closer to our true selves, others, situations and our environment. In turn, we learn to live more open heartedly, and with greater awareness and acceptance.

Stephen favours a slower paced, steady asana practice, encouraging stability and strength. He is mindful of embracing asana in a way that is sympathetic to each physical body's own unique story. He dedicates time to pranayama in each class, recognising the breath as one of our most powerful tools of discovery.
