Yoga with Maria

Maria’s yoga journey began over 30 years ago in Kerala, India, where she was inspired by a humble yogi teaching in a hut among coconut palms. Since then, she has explored Hatha, Vinyasa, Iyengar, Yin and pregnancy yoga, maintaining a steady practice of asana, pranayama and meditation. Recently completing her 200-hour Yoga Alliance Teacher Training, Maria is excited to share the physical and spiritual benefits of yoga that have supported her through every stage of life.

Alongside yoga, Maria is a qualified massage therapist with diplomas in Clinical Therapeutic Massage and Neuromuscular Therapy, bringing a deep understanding of anatomy to her teaching.

Yoga with Sirpa

Sirpa’s yoga journey began at age eight when her grandmother took her to her first class — an experience that sparked a lifelong connection with yoga. Over the years, yoga has remained a steady thread through every stage of her life, offering balance, resilience and renewal. In 2015 while working in a demanding corporate career, Sirpa completed her 200-hour Yoga Alliance Teacher Training, later going on to deepen her practice with 300- and 500-hour advanced trainings, as well as specialist studies in pregnancy yoga and yin yoga.

She is also a Reiki Master Teacher and Yoga Alliance Continuing Professional Development (CPD) trainer, passionate about supporting teachers and students alike.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I need to be flexible or fit to do yoga?

    No! Your strength and flexibility will improve with regular yoga practice but it is not a requirement to start.


    These classes are designed for normal people - many of whom cant touch their toes (... yet!). 


  • What should I wear to yoga?

    During a yoga class you will be stretching, bending and moving in all directions so wear something comfortable that allows a full range of movement. Most ladies come in leggings or loose fitting pants and a tshirt and men wear lined shorts. 


    Yoga is performed barefoot so no need for trainers. In cooler months it is advisable to wear layers as you can get quite hot during the practice.


  • What type of payment methods do you accept?

    Most students book and pay online, however if you prefer not to pay this way you can pay via internet banking or cash on the day. Bookings are essential so if you dont book online please contact us to let us know to expect you. 

  • Can I eat and drink before a class?

    It is not advisable to eat for at least an hour before your yoga class. If you are hungry a snack of  fruit or fresh juice is best.

  • Do I need my own mat?

    Soul Tree provides mats, however we do encourage you to bring your own. It is worth investing in a good non slip mat so you can practice at home too!
