About Bill

While inspired by many different yoga and meditation traditions, Bill’s main influence has been the teachings of the late Vanda Scaravelli, and he continues to study with Sandra Sabatini, one of her longest standing students.

Before that he studied for 18 years with Diane Long, trained over many years with Sophie Hoare and John Stirk, and is also qualified as a Yoga Therapist (YBT), as a Sivananda Yoga Teacher, and as a Core Process Psychotherapist.

Away from his mat he also mentors in the world of outdoor education and nature connection, recently completed a training in Parts Work (IFS) and, in his down time, can often be found wandering on Dartmoor with a scruffy lurcher, or paddling a canoe down towards the sea.
