France - Yoga Teacher

Saskia Anley-McCallum

Saskia grew up in 4 continents which gave her an open mind and love of people. As a child who had never even heard of yoga, she would practise lotus, nauli (stomach churning) and head stand... and on her first trip to India at age 20, she realised that India was definitely her spiritual home! 2 years later, she found a book on yoga and never stopped practising - that was 17 years ago! She has practised all kinds of yoga and is very interested in yoga philosophy. Her teacher training is in Hatha and her teaching style mixes Hatha and Ashtanga.

Saskia spent many years as an Outward Bound Instructor running personal development courses in the States, South Africa and Costa Rica. She is passionate about the outdoors and lives with her husband and 2 children in the French Alps. Her classes focus on solid alignment while bring a relaxed strength into the postures, bring balance and heart-opening into the sequences. She has a solid grounding in mediation and pranayama and her classes will leave you feeling fresh, invigorated and and relaxed at the same time.
