I began teaching yoga in 1997 - in York initially. Harrogate Yoga was founded a couple of years later when I moved to Harrogate. But my journey towards becoming a yoga teacher and Somatic Movement Educator, began many years previously. My very first yoga class was in 1972 and I loved the effect it had on me.
Contact Amanda for details of upcoming courses and also for private one-to-one therapeutic yoga sessions. Important Notes: This course introduces the basics of yoga, including breath awareness and gentle warming up exercises, gradually leading to more challenging movements and poses. Classes always finish with relaxation.
This is what Justine Brooks says about her experience of a mini course: 'I've been looking to deepen my yoga practice and learn new elements to bring into my personal practice for some time, so this short course was perfect for me.
Amanda's understanding of somatic processes, her breadth of training and experience is enormously impressive and she has much to impart for any yogi who wants to explore a deeper somatic awareness in their yoga practice.As a psychotherapist specialising in trauma, I find so much at so many levels in Amanda's teachings and feel that this course has benefited me on a professional as well as a personal level.'

Yoga is a wonderful resource for women who are pregnant. However every woman is unique and that includes how she experiences her pregnancy. There is also a big difference between the pregnant woman who wants to begin yoga, and the pregnant woman who is already a yoga practitioner and wants to continue a modified practice.
Amanda is planning a workshop called Love the Lumbricals for 2022 - a video on this theme is nearly ready for release. I particularly loved the pace, which was mindful, slow and precise, giving me time to experience all the floating movements, marvellous. Amanda's calm, centred, humble and very competent way of teaching made for a very therapeutic experience.

I love Amanda’s classes and they are always one of the highlights of the week. They are very different from previous yoga classes I have attended which have sometimes felt like a slightly chaotic conveyor belt. Amanda creates the most relaxed, welcoming space with her very natural and holistic approach. She is really kind and clearly very experienced too. Each class feels like a hug and I always sleep really well afterwards!

I have been an aspiring yogi for twenty years now. As a busy working mum of two youngsters, with a demanding job, time to practise is often difficult to find. One of the main reasons why Amanda's classes get "5 stars" from me are the kindness, patience and non-judgmental ambience that lies at the very heart of her teaching. There is no expectation of excellence in my postures, no criticism when it's "one step forwards and two back" having missed a class or not kept up with my "homework". Quite the reverse: When I enter the beautiful room that is Amanda's yoga practice space I find myself in a sanctuary

Lessons with Amanda Latchmore add a new dimension to your yoga practice. A highly experienced teacher whose practice is informed by body mind centering and science as well as yoga tradition. Amanda often takes time out to explain why certain postures are useful anatomically, what those poses teach us and how to use them. Amanda teaches us to be aware of personal limits - paying attention to individual physical weaknesses or injuries.
Amanda has been teaching for 30 years and has taught me for 15 years and in that time she has never stopped learning and developing as a teacher. She is extremely

Amanda's classes are friendly and supportive. Each student has the right amount of challenge to progress without overreaching their ability, and for me this has led to a sense of achievement as well as the other benefits of yoga. I look forward to class each week and emerge feeling exercised and relaxed!

I started off with Harrogate Yoga's beginner course, my first introduction to yoga. It was a great way to start as everyone in the class was a beginner and it was a small class allowing Amanda to help everyone as they needed it.
I have since moved from there through the level 1 class and into the level 2 class. At each step the classes have been well balanced and friendly.
There is a nice balance between the physical practice and the meditation and mental aspect of yoga, with a reading each week to discuss or just think on.
The classes always develop nicely through each term, so if you are new

I started going to Amanda's yoga class 4 year's ago. Amanda is an excellent teacher and one of the things I love about the sessions is the advice on adapting different positions to suit everyone's different aches, pains and levels of flexibility. It is a very peaceful and friendly environment and I never fail to come away feeling more relaxed and energised. Thanks Amanda
