Discover Scaravelli-Inspired Yoga
Join me for a one-to-one Scaravelli-inspired yoga session for a body-mind reset.
Scaravelli-inspired yoga is a contemporary style that focuses on improving flexibility and mobility through movement. Movement patterns are habits that we repeat throughout life, and without regular practice, we lose mobility.
As humans, we are neurologically organised. Our bodies react to our environments, shaping us since birth. As children, we repeated movement patterns that became habituated, developing our unique body maps.
Somatic Approach
A somatic movement is an action performed consciously, focusing on the internal feeling of each movement. The felt sense of movement is essential in Scaravelli yoga; listening provides a framework for responding to sensory input.
We work with the lines of support our skeletal bones offer. We can focus on sensation rather than external results by minimising energy needed for movement.
Freedom is the goal of yoga.

Whilst on holiday on the Isle of Wight I had three 1:1 sessions with Erling in which we worked mainly with my feet, changing the way I place my feet from an eversion to a balanced position. What a difference it has made! I find myself walking faster and with greater ease. Weeding my flower bed was nearly enjoyable and I can stand in a tree pose without wobbling, something I could not do at all beforehand. I sit and walk so much taller that husband wondered whether I had grown!
Throughout the sessions Erling took his lead from me, making the practice free from the strain and struggle I have experienced in other yoga classes, yet at the end of each practice I was exhausted. Erling also taught and instilled into me an awareness and respect for my own movement needs. So, rather than just following instructions I now monitor whether a posture is actually helping to increase movement range or whether I am actually just straining myself for the sake of a posture and thus creating more blocks in my body. Erling also very skilfully gave me an introduction to anatomy when it was needed which also helps me now to decide where I need to adjust my movements, e.g. my lumbar spine.
I think Erling is an excellent, very knowledgable teacher, who I experienced as someone who works with his clients and skilfully adopts the postures to the needs of the client rather than adjusting the client to the posture. I am looking forward to my next stay on the island and more 1:1 lessons with Erling and Scaravelli inspired yoga.

I fractured my sacrum (lower back) eight months before i started my first ever yoga class with Erling. I had a six week one to one course. On arrival Erling made me feel very relaxed as i was quite nervous. My main problem was movement and confidence to bend due to my back injury. By the end of my course i felt much more confident to do things i had not been able to do since my injury thanks to Erling’s encouragement, knowledge and expertise. I would definitely recommend him.
