Welcome to Yoga Orchid. I am Regina Kerschbaumer an experienced Senior Yoga teacher, founder of Yoga Orchid,  Bowen Therapist and Hypnotherapist.

I teach ‘authentic’ Yin Yoga with soft Yang flows and guided meditations. As a highly qualified Senior Yoga Teacher (SYT), with years of extensive training and experience my classes are suitable for people of all levels, ages and abilities.

I encourage students to get to know and honour their bodies, to focus on their own ability and to concentrate mindfully on what is happening on their mat. My unique teaching style which unites student and teacher in an atmosphere of fun and well-being, allowing them to explore the relationships between the body, breath and stillness in their yoga.

My weekly Yin and Yang Yoga classes are currently online and face to face in Purley. I also teach private classes, at David Lloyd and am part of the staff at StudioBE.

Yoga Orchid also offers yoga workshops, weekend retreats in England, Ireland and exclusive holidays in Morocco, Greece, Goa and South-Africa. Under the banner of the Yoga Orchid Yinstitute, I provide advanced further training for Yoga teachers 120 RYT certified by Yoga Alliance Professionals focusing on Yin Yoga, Chakra Meditations, Mindfulness and Yoga Nidra.

With me…it’s personal!

My other offerings are Bowen Therapy and Hypnotherapy.  Yoga and holistic alternative therapies can be very helpful to awaken, heal and restore the body. What to change your life? Call me!

Yoga Orchid’s style of yoga incorporates both:

Yin – a slow-paced style of yoga where sequences of deliciously deep floor poses or asanas are held for longer periods of time. This meditative practice works on deeper connective tissues in the joints to enhance and stimulate the chi-flow to the meridian and organ systems and open the joints. Therefor it relaxes, restores and rejuvenates. Bringing the moisture back into our dry and brittle areas, helping us to regain freedom in our body. Yin yoga is also an essential complement to more active styles of yoga, sport and fitness and offers the opportunity to develop our thoughtful nature.

Yang – a more active practice incorporating a continuous flowing sequence of poses that strengthens the muscles, maintains core stability, improves flexibility and agility and enhances creativity and active energy. Yang yoga has rhythm and repetition and is a combination of yoga and Tai Chi.

Shanti Om.
