Nikki Lynds-Xavier
Yoga Teacher

To practise yoga is to connect – mind, body, soul. So yoga allows me, to be me. 

My yoga style depends on what I need that day. I enjoy a strong Vinyasa or Bikram but your body needs variety or you’ll just cruise; so I also do Hatha and Yin. My teaching style is flow yoga. I change the routine for each class, with a different focus to keep it interesting. But there’s a 3 monthly plan that we work through, to ensure that we build strength and flexibility for the whole body.

Favourite Yoga pose is King Dancer because it combines balance, strength, flexibility and focus.

I do Voiceovers. Ads, corporate videos etc. I was once auditioned for the BBC radio travel reports but being dyslexic, grappling with the road numbers sent me into a spin!
