I can help you embark on a transformative journey towards enhanced well-being and happiness by addressing the three crucial aspects of your life: physical, physiological, and mental well-being.

1. Physical:  I will guide you in cultivating a pain-free and functional body, ensuring you possess the necessary strength, flexibility, and fitness to excel in your daily tasks with ease and without discomfort.

2. Physiological: Together, we will focus on achieving a balanced and energized state within your nervous system. By nurturing a calm and relaxed demeanor while maintaining ample energy levels, you will gain the ability to combat stress and depression effectively, while enhancing the functional ability of you immune, digestive and reproductive systems.

3. Mental: Through my guidance, you will learn to cultivate a positive relationship between your thinking brain and gut brain. This balanced approach between logical thinking and intuitive feelings will lead to improved mental functioning and a heightened sense of happiness in life.

By addressing these three interconnected aspects of yourself, you will lay the foundation for a holistic and transformative path towards improved well-being, and unlocking your true potential for a fulfilling and joyous life.

 

About

I have been studying traditional forms of posture, movement, breathing and mental control for more than 50 years. Over this time I have worked as a research-based scientist, exercise-based physiotherapist and a university lecturer in several science fields. My passion for these subjects has led me to understand that the world is a very connected place. I believe that to make the world a better place people should treat each other, all life and the Earth itself in a way that acknowledges the connections between everything. I believe the best way of beginning this practise is to acknowledge and enhance the connections within yourself.

In my teaching, I show safe, accessible and effective ways of developing practices which can give you the essence of being in connection, or being in the zone or the flow state, as some athletes might say. I believe this state is equivalent to the meditative state that is meant to be part of the traditional yoga but is often lost in modern yoga.

What other people are saying...

I still remember the first Yoga Synergy class I walked into in 2006. I had been practicing yoga for 5 years by then, so I had some experience and learnt from a few very skilled, excellent teachers. However, my first class with Simon had a definite WOW factor which lasts even today after 13 years of guru-shisja relationship. He never ceases to amuse me with his one of -a-kind teaching style, his warm, approachable, humble personality. I’m forever indebted to him for sharing his knowledge and wisdom with me. He is the most authentic teacher I have ever met. His wealth of knowledge, enthusiasm, creativity, sensibility, and sense of humour is unprecedented. Once you’ve had the chance to experience Simon, there is no other place to go. Grateful forever. THANK YOU.

As a professional athlete and yoga practitioner for more than 30 years, I’ve experienced how yoga can enhance an athlete’s life, but I struggled to find yoga practices that would boost my energy instead of depleting it. It was only after I had found Simon and Yoga Synergy that I realized yoga can make conditions worse if you practice it in an unsafe and unintelligently manner, which was BKS Iyengar’ s major concern too. After training with Mr Iyengar, I had found Yoga Synergy, the missing link between traditional yoga and the needs of the modern human body. Simon is a biologist, physiotherapist and yoga teacher, and his knowledge about the human anatomy and physiology, and his insight about how traditional yoga and modern western physiotherapy can be brought together is so unique and profound that I have retrained with him all over the world. There was a cascade of positive results manifesting in all aspects of my life: in my health, relationships and even in my professional life. Go to a class, a teacher training, or do an online course with Simon, and you will realize what the sages have been saying about yoga as Kaivalya: freedom in presence.
