Ari Yoga Healing
Private Gentle Yoga in South East London & Online Yoga for Beginners, Chronic Illness & Stress
Hello and welcome. I'm Ari, and I'm so glad you're here.
My mission is to make yoga feel accessible, welcoming, and safe.
Through private personalised yoga classes, I help beginners, people living with chronic health conditions, and those experiencing stress or burnout discover a practice that works with their body rather than against it.
As someone living with a chronic neurological condition myself, I understand how unpredictable health can be and how important it is to adapt, slow down, and listen to your body.
To me, yoga is far more than physical postures (asana). It is a holistic practice that includes movement, breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, and deep rest. Together, these practices can support nervous system regulation, improve body awareness, encourage relaxation, and help you reconnect with yourself in a gentle and sustainable way.
Whether you're stepping onto a yoga mat for the very first time, navigating life with a chronic health condition, or simply looking for a slower, more nurturing approach to movement, you're welcome here.
This is yoga that meets you where you are.

-
I offer both online and in-person private yoga sessions.
In-person sessions take place in the comfort of your own home or another suitable space of your choice within my travel area. Practising in a familiar environment can help you feel more relaxed, making it easier to settle into the session without the stress of travelling. It also means you can move at your own pace, and once the session finishes, you can continue resting or enjoying the calm without needing to commute home.
Online sessions offer the same personalised approach and are ideal if you live outside my local area, have limited mobility, manage a chronic health condition, or simply prefer the convenience of practising from home.
Whichever option you choose, every session is tailored to your needs, goals and energy levels, ensuring your practice feels supportive, accessible and sustainable.
-
A yoga mat would be helpful. Depending on the practice, cushions, blankets, yoga blocks or a chair can also be useful. If you're booking an online session, I'll let you know what you may need beforehand.
-
My approach to yoga is deeply personal and centred around meeting you exactly where you are.
Living with a chronic neurological condition myself has changed the way I practise and teach yoga. I understand that every body is different, that energy levels fluctuate, and that healing isn't about pushing harder. it's about learning to listen.
Rather than focusing on achieving the "perfect pose," my sessions prioritise how you feel. We work with your body, not against it.
Every session is tailored to you, whether you're navigating a chronic health condition, recovering from burnout, or taking your very first steps into yoga.
My aim is to create a calm, supportive space where you can move with confidence, reconnect with yourself and build a sustainable practice that fits your life.
-
In many cases, yes. I specialise in supporting people living with chronic health conditions, including those managing fatigue, pain, stress or neurological conditions.
Every session is tailored to your individual needs, energy levels and any medical considerations. Yoga is not a replacement for medical treatment, but it can be a supportive practice alongside your healthcare.
-
If you've never practised yoga before, you're exactly the kind of person I love working with.
There is no expectation to be flexible, fit or experienced. We'll start at a pace that feels comfortable for you, and I'll guide you through each movement with clear, supportive instruction.
Our first session begins with a conversation about your goals, lifestyle and any injuries or health conditions so I can create a practice that feels safe and appropriate for you.
You're encouraged to ask questions, take breaks whenever you need to, and move in a way that feels right for your body. There is no pressure to "keep up" or get everything right. Your yoga practice is yours alone.
Many people tell me they leave feeling calmer, more connected to their bodies and surprised by how accessible yoga can be.
-
Life happens, and I understand that plans sometimes change.
If you need to cancel or reschedule your session, I kindly ask for at least 24 hours' notice.
With 24 hours' notice, I'll be happy to reschedule your appointment at a mutually convenient time.
Unfortunately, cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice, or missed appointments, may be charged in full, except in exceptional circumstances.
What my students say
Arianna is a wonderful and trustworthy yoga teacher. She creates a calm, welcoming environment where you immediately feel comfortable, even if you are a beginner.
Her explanations are clear, she is very attentive to individual needs, and she always adapts the practice to your level and goals.
What really makes her stand out is her patience, professionalism, and genuine passion for yoga.
Each lesson feels well-structured, balanced, and relaxing, and you leave feeling both physically and mentally better. I would highly recommend Arianna to anyone looking for a supportive, reliable, and inspiring yoga tutor.

Arianna is a fantastic teacher, and a genuinely lovely being (we also share the love for crystals and tarots, but that’s another story).
She is very clear when guiding you through the practice, and ensures you are comfortable at all times.
Her lessons always have a twist, so while you have a good consolidated routine, you can always expect an extra position or a breathing exercise! You leave her classes feeling energised yet calm.
I like to go to her classes evening time, so that by the time we finish it’s just a matter of a shower and off to bed and boy do I sleep great!
I can’t recommend her enough :)
- Elise
Arianna has a wonderful background in Hatha Yoga and a very spiritual and magnetic soul.
I practiced with her during a retreat, and she led the class perfectly with very clear instructions, making the body and mind work as one.
I also listened to her play crystal bowls and especially the handpan, and with these instruments, she fully transmits her spiritual side to those who listen, leading you into a deep state of relaxation.
