Welcome to Yellow Mat Yoga
I'm Aimee,
My relationship with yoga began over two decades ago in Oxford. I was young, carefree and loved reaching for my toes! I moved to London after university and somehow still managed to afford a yoga membership whilst paying eyewatering rent.
Fast forward a few years, and I moved from London to Edinburgh with my husband. In 2015/16, disaster struck at the happiest of times. I had a healthy pregnancy, but the onset of severe PGP abruptly halted my yoga practice, leaving me grappling with physical limitations, not just with yoga but with movement in general.
After years of struggle, a glimmer of hope emerged in 2021; following the birth of my second child, I slowly returned to my mat. Despite the challenges of a weakened body and an unstable pelvis, I persevered, celebrating every small victory along the way. I now stand stronger than ever, free from injuries and recurring pain.
My transformation from marketing professional to certified RYT200 yoga teacher was a little unexpected, but with the challenges of the post-COVID era and two children, I found motivation for my marketing career dwindling and decided to make a change.
Under the expert guidance of Edinburgh's esteemed Meadowlark studio, I delved into the depths of yoga philosophy, anatomy, and the art of teaching yoga to others.
As part of Meadowlark's final teaching cohort, I forged wonderful connections and cherished memories. Armed with knowledge and empathy, I'm thrilled to share the transformative power of yoga with you.
Join me at Yellow Mat Yoga as we embark on a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and transformation.
Together, let's find our flow and embrace a stronger, more balanced future.
If I can do it - you can too!
