Welcome To Balance & Breath Yoga

Hi! I’m Caroline, a fully qualified yoga instructor specialising in Hatha yoga classes and based in Darlington. I trained with the British Wheel of Yoga (BWY) 500-hour Diploma in Newcastle. This Ofqual-registered qualification ensures I bring you safe and professional yoga classes. I am also First Aid and Safeguarding trained and attend regular continuous professional development sessions to provide the best experience in every class.


Be assured that this qualification is Ofqual-registered, and as a dedicated yoga instructor, I stay up-to-date with continuous professional development and First Aid training to support my students effectively.

I discovered yoga after retiring from a very high-profile and stressful job. Experiencing the transformative impact of yoga on my life inspired me to share its benefits with others. This journey led me to train as a Hatha yoga instructor!

My goal is to make yoga classes accessible to everyone so that you too can experience the benefits yoga offers. My teaching style is welcoming, warm, and inclusive. Whether you are joining a weekly Hatha yoga class or exploring opportunities like yoga holidays or yoga retreats, I aim to provide progression, knowledge, and satisfaction in every session.


What is Yoga?

The million-dollar question! Yoga is a deeply philosophical practice, but at its heart, it’s a blend of movement, breathwork, and relaxation that fosters self-awareness. Through yoga, you learn to navigate life more effectively.

Yoga can enhance your mobility, strength, and flexibility while calming your mind and bringing peace into your daily life. Whether you're attending local yoga classes or venturing on inspiring yoga retreats, yoga offers something for everyone.


Hatha Yoga

Originating from India, Hatha yoga is perfect for beginners and curious newcomers, yet it also challenges experienced yogis. My Hatha yoga classes combine breathwork, movement, and relaxation, making them unique compared to typical fitness sessions. Each class includes mindfulness practices, meditations, and guided relaxation techniques.

I aim to honour the original teachings of Hatha yoga while adding my personal touch. My yoga classes are designed to be accessible to all, highlighting the multitude of benefits that yoga can bring to your life. Whether you’re attending a weekly Hatha yoga class or considering rejuvenating yoga holidays, it’s a chance to prioritise yourself and focus on personal growth.

Yoga is a gift that keeps on giving, whether through regular practice or enriching experiences like yoga retreats. Take this opportunity for some "you time" to experience all the incredible benefits yoga has to offer!
