Sandra is an experienced and passionate rock climbing coach and yoga teacher, with an extensive sports background which includes Brazilian Capoeira, Volleyball, Handball and Cycling.
She has been climbing since 2007 and 4 years later, she decided to quit her role as a Marketing and Events Manager for a music festival to dedicate her life to climbing, working as an instructor/coach, route setter, duty and operations manager at various walls across the South East of England.
Sandra has been practising yoga for over 20 years, and she is a 500-RYT Yoga Alliance Teacher.
Over the years she has dedicated herself to teaching yoga to a wide range of people, mostly climbers and sportspeople, helping them to discover its benefits to support themselves within their own discipline.
Her lessons consist of sequences specially designed for the needs of her students, working on strengthening agonistic and antagonistic muscles, developing proprioception and body positioning skills, flexibility and mindfulness, with breathing and concentration exercises which are useful tools for improving an athlete’s head game. Her classes are characterised by her unwavering commitment to safety and alignment coupled with a refreshing approach that infuses each session with a sense of playfulness and relaxation. This balance allows students to push their boundaries while cultivating a sense of ease and enjoyment in their practice.
“My yoga practice is well reflected in the way I climb and teach climbing, with detailed attention to fluid movement, perfect technique and body awareness.“
Sandra is also a full-time mum! 🙂
