Testimonials
We chose Olivia to teach at UNICEF because she is extremely professional and yet has an easy and relaxed teaching style, and because she came very highly recommended. Everyone looks forward to her classes every week, and they continue to have a positive impact on staff. Personally, I have been practicing yoga with a variety of teachers for 15 years, and Olivia is one of the very best teachers I have ever come across. In addition to extensive training, she has an intuitive talent for teaching yoga that is impossible to learn and quite rare. This means that her classes are always pitched at just the right level, flow organically and leave staff feeling more relaxed, less stressed and ready to face their challenging work with renewed energy. I cannot recommend Olivia’s yoga classes highly enough, your staff will thank you for it.”

“From first speaking with Olivia, I knew I wanted to work with her. The group had very limited knowledge of meditation and Olivia introduced us to various forms and techniques, everyone found something that worked for them and the reactions were really positive. Olivia has kept all her promises and we managed to build a bespoke programme that worked really well for both of us. As well as being extremely personable, Olivia is a highly knowledgeable and enthusiastic individual. I’m pleased that Olivia and I have remained in touch following the classes.”

"My session with you was the first time in the seven years I have lived in the UK, that I have felt able to speak freely from my heart. I am trying gather words to say how nice it was to meet you but as usual they fall short when you need them most..."

“I have been wanting this knowledge for years and didn’t know it existed. Thank you for finding it all and passing it on. A fun, relaxed and enlightening day which helped me understand lots’ of things about being a woman I’ve been struggling with for years. Practical, no-nonsense, straightforward and revolutionary”

"So many trainers are great when they're working from a script but will really struggle when the script isn't working or just isn't appropriate. Your genuine spontaneity is an amazing skill for any coach and reflects that you’re deeply connected to your own creativity."
Colleague Chris Skilton, Managing Director, ThirdKey
"Olivia's yoga classes are fantastic. I've done yoga in the past of different types and with different teachers. What I love about Olivia's classes is that they're so varied - every class is different. She really listens to the mood in the room and adapts her class to how the participants are feeling. She also focuses on things such as eye health and the pelvic floor muscles, as well as the usual parts of the body. There are no strict rules in her class and no need to be perfect, but rather an emphasis on enjoyment and wellbeing. I do a lunchtime yoga class with Olivia and always float back to my desk oblivious to the stresses of the morning. Highly recommended!"
Yoga Client Jess Wright, UNICEF UK
“Many thanks for today’s session today which was helpful on many counts and has opened up some new avenues of thought which I will ponder on. I have come out of each session feeling refreshed and positive. I consider myself very fortunate to have stumbled on your website and now to have spent time with you. I must compliment you on your style and approach. You are living up to all the points I latched on to on your website so I am feeling I have made a good choice.”

“Olivia is an exceptional professional taking great care to prepare for the class and an outstanding comunicator. However what stroke me the most was her understanding of children's` psychology and interests that breaks the distance between teacher and student and makes her loved by her students” Colleague Gergana Manova
“Thanks for your energy and great smile”
Yoga Client Florian
“It was fantastic to have your calm and professional leadership before and at the event!! I feel that we are not only lucky to have you as a facilitator, but also as someone to guide us (ie great template…insights….). Of course the only way we will be able to achieve our goals for U4U is through delivering at the highest possible level…one step above the rest, and I know we all feel the same…that that is you!!”
Facilitation Client Ila Panik, Director U4UK
“Inspirational day. Full of practical tips and guidance on how to embrace your femininity with grace and pride. You were such an inspirational workshop leader and it was a very healing and safe space that you created for us all. I would highly recommend this workshop as important to all women to understand more of who we are and to embrace our feminine selves.”

"The lessons strike a good balance between physical and challenging positions, and those that are more resting and nurturing. My body benefits hugely from an hour of yoga – I wish it was more! I always walk away rested, rejuvenated and much calmer than when I walk in. I would wholeheartedly recommend you to friends and colleagues – I already have on many occasions!"
Yoga Client Olivia S, UNICEF UK
“I especially like the way you're really good at reading where the audience is 'at' and tailoring your approach and the activities to suit. Then once we get into the recalibrated activities I think 'wow, NOW I get why this was a great idea'. It makes working on your programmes really enjoyable because we don't end up trying to shoe-horn a set of ideas onto the participants.“
Colleague Sophie Low
“Just wanted to say thank you for facilitating the brilliant course yesterday - it was a very inspiring afternoon and great way to spend a Sunday.”
