Regain freedom of movement.

Affected by pain, stiffness or discomfort? Regain freedom of movement and feel at ease in your body — so you can get back to doing what you love.

You’ve been told everything ‘looks fine.’ You’ve tried exercises, yoga videos, massage— frustratingly, nothing seems to shift. You feel at a loss and start adapting your life to your pain. This is common and the good news is — you are not the problem.

Science tells us that pain is driven by the nervous system. And as any complex system, it needs a holistic, personalised & progressive approach. Therapeutic yoga is a unique blend of movement science and mindfulness to help you recover, and build resilience in more than on way — in the body, the mind & the breath.

How it works

  • Holistic assessment and personalised, progressive plan of action

  • Guided 60 min sessions online, once or twice a week + simple homework

  • Regular check-ins and support between sessions

  • Adapted to you

    You might have tried general classes or exercises and felt unsure whether you were doing them correctly — or even if they were actually right for you.

    One-to-one sessions are built around you — your body, preferences and needs. The programme evolves alongside you, giving you the right input at the right time.

    Centred around therapeutic yoga, with ideas drawn from pilates, strength training and rehabilitation — with clear guidance and feedback along the way.

  • Holistic approach

    Have you ever feel dismissed when seeking help? Despite continuing discomfort, you get no answers or hear that everything looks ‘fine’. It starts feeling like it’s all in your head.

    Yoga’s strength is seeing the whole person — how mind, body and movement connect. My mission is to empower you to learn and understand the ‘why’ behind everything we do, a skill that will serve you for life.

    It doesn’t end with movement — you’ll also learn useful techniques that help with mindfulness, relaxation and stress reduction.

  • Backed by science

    Whatever your age, you don’t have to accept that getting older means slowing down or that pain is inevitable — scientific evidence has refuted these claims loud and clear.

    I use a holistic approach firmly grounded in the science of movement and mindfulness, backed by decades of training and staying current as science evolves.

    Evidence shows the body and brain stay plastic at any age. All you need is a sensible, individual programme that gets you back to doing what you love — not just managing symptoms.

  • "Supportive for body & mind."

    Working with Olga has been invaluable to support my mental and physical wellness. I started working with her for a hamstring injury, but her knowledge and expertise have taken me on a journey I never expected! We work together on mindfulness, strength and yoga. Her expertise in all areas shines through! Mindfulness has become an integral part of my life, all thanks to Olga. I look forward to each session, knowing each will be a unique experience. Olga's practice is supportive for both body and mind. — Hannah

  • "She clearly knows her stuff!"

    I really love my yoga, and it's in big part down to Olga’s holistic approach. Especially that she understands movement across so many different techniques, from restorative yoga all the way to strength training and skill development! She can spot things in my movement that I’d assumed would not be visible. I’m surprised that she can see these, especially as we are working online and not in person... but she clearly knows her stuff! — Sophie

  • "I am amazed and delighted!"

    I have contacted Olga to help with chronic tailbone pain and in the short time working with her, there has already been a big improvement in my pain – I am amazed and delighted! Olga has a detailed understanding of the human body and tailors my exercise and yoga programme to suit my needs, every week is different so there's no chance of me getting bored. I love her holistic approach and I’m feeling stronger in body and mind. Thanks Olga! — Wendy

  • "I learned a huge amount."

    I have really enjoyed connecting and working with Olga. Her investigative skills and movement expertise make us a good working combination. I have learnt a huge amount about movement generally and anatomy during our time together. I have also learnt a lot about myself and my own body which has allowed me to open a conversation with it for the first time in a long while. — Fiona

  • "It made a huge difference."

    For years I was suffering from severe lower back pain, so much so that even moving around was affected. Tried physiotherapy several times but I realised I needed more personalised guidance. Then I met Olga. In a very short time, our sessions have made a huge difference to my life and I can now move around painlessly again. I am so grateful and happy to have found her and her expertise. — Inga

  • "Empowered to have the tools."

    I’ve noticed that I’m using breathing techniques and I’m aware of how I move outside of the classes or even exercise. This has helped to ground me and reduce stress. Its really down to the way Olga describes movement and breathing. She has a unique way of helping you to visualise and tune in to the process. I feel empowered to have these tools to take with me outside of Olga’s careful teaching. - Jen

  • "I have learned so much!"

    The term ‘holistic’ is used so often, it can become redundant. However, my experience of working with Olga has given new depth to the idea. It is not just the physical exercise – I have learned so much about the ‘mindset of pain’ and the beliefs we form based on sometimes outdated thinking. Olga’s fresh approach, enthusiasm and encouragement have helped me to view my arthritis not as an inevitable and debilitating condition but as something I can manage and still engage with life fully and actively. — Raymy

  • "A passionate practitioner."

    Olga’s approach to therapeutic yoga is informed and informative. She took time to explain to me no simply how to do each exercise or movement in my programme but also why — what benefit I would experience from it. What I most appreciate about her approach is the realism: she did not overload me, expressing that my homework needed to be the right size to fit my life. Olga is a passionate body practitioner. She has a deep familiarity with movement, and I would recommend her mindful and effective approach to anyone. — Claire

  • "Interested in my situation."

    Olga kindly took me on after a friend suggested she might be able to help me with leg and walking pains. Prior to each session she perused medical literature, which she shared with me in parts, to figure out how to help me even better. A day or two after our session, she asked me how I was feeling, adjusting the exercises to my need, ability and the pain level I was experiencing at the time. I found Olga to be enthusiastic, kind, calm, respectful, resourceful and very interested in my particular, complex situation. — Karen

  • "Friendly & personalised."

    Olga's online classes and workshops have been really informative, friendly and personalised. They have helped me to improve stability and active range around areas I had previously experienced injuries. As a professional dancer, her support has helped me to build a strong and mindful warm up sequence which I'm able to use to prepare for performances. Her tools for yoga teachers such as the Yoga Pad, sequencing inspiration videos and 1-1 conversations, have also helped me to gain confidence in teaching new postures and integrating anatomical work into classes. — Jay

Meet your teacher

Hi — I’m Olga, a movement educator from Edinburgh, Scotland, and I’m here to guide you on your journey.

I have spent over two decades exploring bodies in motion — movement is my first language. I started with contemporary dance: a physical, meditative, creative practice of finding yourself in motion.

The exploratory nature of dance sparked my curiosity for movement science — I like to know the “why.” The mind–body approach led me to mindfulness, my anchor for the last 13 years. Everything naturally fell together when I discovered yoga.

I’m a lifelong learner, a lover of nuance, and get the most joy out of supporting people in becoming the best version of themselves.

  • Physiotherapists are medical professionals, who specialise in diagnosing and treating injury and musculoskeletal health conditions using assessment, massage and exercise prescription. Your physio or doctor will help you figure out if there is any underlying medical diagnosis contributing to your pain and suggest treatment if so.

    Yoga Therapists have extensive training in all aspects of yoga, through the lens of science. That includes movement assessment, exercise & pain science, myofascial release & mindfulness techniques. Our job is to get you back to a feeling of balance — by optimising your movement and teaching you mindfulness techniques.

    A holistic yoga therapy programme often results in resolution of ‘non-specific’ pain. In cases of a medical diagnosis, a combination of healthcare approaches with yoga therapy can drive the most powerful results.

    • Scheduling: A regular meeting on Zoom, for about 75 min (adaptable), once or a few times a week. You’ll need a computer with a webcam and a microphone.

    • Props: Ideally an exercise / yoga mat + some basic props like a yoga block / strap.

    • First session: You get a chance to tell your story, and we move through a simple movement assessment.

    • Following sessions: You get guided through a programme of exercises, stretches and mobilisations and specific mindfulness techniques. The programme evolves as you make progress.

    • After sessions: You get a simple homework and regular check-ins with me.

    • Duration: We begin with an 8-week programme to give your body & mind a chance to adapt.

    • Progression: Once you are feeling great, you can decide if you want to schedule regular maintenance sessions in general yoga or strength training.

    • Investment: Standard rate is £45 for a 75 min session. Concessions and financial support spots regularly open up (limited availability) to increase access to therapeutic yoga.
