Background

After a long period of despair a friend took her to Bikram yoga, an event which changed her life; she continued returning to that hot room and recovered her health and well-being as a direct result of this unique treatment.

Gwendolyn knows the physical, emotional and spiritual benefits given by this form of yoga since she hit a rock bottom after her accident. With her many years of dance experience, she has an incredible eye for where you need to focus your attention, whether it is your alignment, your concentration or your emotional world. Let Gwendolyn's own physical and emotional recovery, and her bodily expertise and awareness guide you to new experiences with your true self.
