Hey,

I’m Fay Dwyer

As a result of my work as a yoga therapist I have become passionate about sharing the benefits this therapeutic yoga modality. I am excited to offer online Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy inspired sessions. This body-based approach is both powerful and transformational.

My yoga journey

My journey started when I moved from London to Tokyo, when I was in my 20s and six months pregnant with my first child. I was encouraged to try prenatal yoga. Being far from home, without family and friends, and in the middle of a huge life transition,I needed more than an exercise class. I needed a way to feel settled in this new country. As a result of my first yoga class I experienced first-hand the power of yoga. The group kindly accepted me in. I felt a real connection. Yoga had me completely hooked

My journey continued

I kept up the yoga classes after my daughter was born. I even returned to the same prenatal class when carrying my son. Then we left Japan and moved around the world a bit. United States, Singapore, Thailand, and the UK. Finding a yoga class in each new location became my thing. I have been so fortunate to experience many different styles of yoga in many languages.

So that I might enrich my home practice, I decided to do a 200-hour teacher training. I completed this with Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy in the USA. The therapeutic modality meshed well with my belief that yoga should be inclusive and accessible. I got the chance to try a yoga therapy session when I was in Bristol, VT training. The experience was that of gaining total clarity. Who I am, what drives me, and what holds me back.

Because of this, the experience was enough for me to want to dive deeply into the 600-hour yoga therapist training. I always like to remember my experience in that first yoga class in Tokyo. Feeling I was connected. Like I was home. I always hope to replicate that feeling for clients when they experience a yoga therapy session with me.
