Says Imelda "I have been practicing Yoga since I was 14 years old and I practice every day. Yoga makes you feel great and develops incredible health and vitality. Yoga is as much about stretching your mind as your spine. Although it is a physical activity is effects far more than your physical body. Breathing, balance and focus all come into play and yoga is a holistic means of healing, nurturing and vitalising your body, mind and spirit. "

Imelda is a qualified instructor for the British Wheel of Yoga and a Senior Instructor for Zong Ding Tai Chi Chuan. She travels each year to India to study Yoga in its traditional way.
