Erin Douglas

Von Belfast nach Lisburn

Erin Douglas ist eine ganz besondere Teacherin. Sie praktiziert diese Art von Yoga seit 2002 und absolvierte das Teacher-Training 2004. Sie eröffnete 2007 in Belfast das erste Bikram-Yoga-Studio von Nordirland. Zuvor unterrichtete sie in Kanada und den USA, sowie in Dublin und Manchester. Vor dreieinhalb Jahren zogen sie und ihr Partner Tony Hiley mit ihrem Studio nach Lisburn, ihrer Heimatstadt.

Sie versteht es, ihre Klassen so zu führen, dass sich jeder Einzelne direkt angesprochen fühlt. Sie sagt, dass, wenn man die Schüler fordere, man nicht immer geliebt werde. Das suche sie auch nicht. „If you lack courage as a teacher you produce weak students with improper technique.“ Weiter sagt sie: „We can teach anyone who has a willingness to try and change.“

From Belfast to Lisburn

Erin is an amazing teacher. She graduated 2004 and has been a dedicated student of the Bikram practice since 2002. She opened 2007 in Belfast the very first Bikram yoga studio in Northern Ireland. She has taught thousands of students in Northern Ireland. She has also taught all over Canada and the USA; as in Dublin and Manchester. Three and a half years ago she and her partner Tony Hiley had to close their studio in Belfast due to political problems. They opened the studio in Lisburn.

Erin has an intuitive ability to personalize her classes, making a room full of students feel as if each individual were having a private class. She tells that great teachers are not always liked, but „if you lack courage as a teacher you produce weak students with improper technique.“ And further: „We can teach anyone who has a willingness to try and change.“
