“When the student is ready, the teacher will appear”

It has only been recently that this ancient Buddhist quote has resonated with me. One of the things that I am so grateful for along my current path in life, in establishing Yoga for Golf IRELAND is that I have the ability to bring yoga to a demographic that yoga hasn’t been really accessible to for various reasons.
I was extremely humbled by a notion that was articulated to me recently by a tutor of mine who said, “There are people out there waiting for you to start teaching......”. WOW, when I really reflect on this idea I feel so inspired and empowered and it provokes in me a purpose that I always knew was there but didn’t know what it was!
I have received so much from yoga over the years. It answers all my questions and has afforded me a deep sense of awareness that has affected every part of my life in such a positive way. To be able to share and pass on this very special gift is at times overwhelming for me but a path I believe in and am truly committed to.  
The strong pull of my ENFJ personality which has been the unconscious force driving most of my career decisions over the past few years has at last paid dividends and brought me to a place of personal satisfaction and contentment. For the first time in my life I can honestly say that the conflict between my physical, emotional and intellectual life is being reconciled.
So here I am, ready to guide the golfers of Ireland through their own unique journeys through yoga. Some may merely show up to get exercise and gain flexibility that is directly transferrable to the golf course, which is absolutely fine. But for those who chose to turn up and are ready to listen, they will be presented with an experience that is invaluable for both their personal and sporting lives.
Come to a yoga for golfers class. Be a ready student and the answers you seek will come to you!
Namaste
