Lydia has visited Vietnam and Hoi An many times and it is a place close to her heart. Lydia is on hand to assist with advice regarding additional travel throughout Vietnam either before or after our retreat.
Amy + Lydia are your retreat hosts!
Lydia Richards
Yoga Corner Teacher Lydia is a true believer in the power of yoga and the clarity, confidence and calm a regular practice can bring to your life. Since attending her first yoga class over 13 years ago, Lydia has encouraged friends and family to yoga classes and retreats in an effort to open their eyes to its magic. Lydia, an experienced yoga teacher, is passionate about helping people of all levels and abilities connect with yoga and through her teaching aims to helps students tap into and get to know their authentic Self, in-turn creating space in heart and mind for deeper connection with within, with the world and with others. As well as being an experienced Yoga teacher, Lydia is also a Level Two Usui Ryoho Reiki practitioner and a certified Laughter Yoga facilitator.
Amy Leonard King
Yoga Corner Founder Amy is humbled and inspired by the opportunity to share her love and joy of the practices of Yoga with anyone willing to take that first step onto the Yoga mat. More than exploring the physical practice in her classes and linking awareness of the breath, Amy's passion lies in sharing the deeper philosophy and ancient teachings that take us to a more subtle and profound understanding of ourselves, drawing us closer to our original state of truth, consciousness + bliss. Amy, who has been teaching for over 10 years - is a certified Jivamukti Yoga Teacher, brings a calming presence to her teaching, whilst challenging students both physically and mentally, offering up ways to both ground + find our centre, as well as expand beyond our perceived limitations. She links the ancient practices of Yoga with how we can access these ideas in our modern lives.
