Emma Taylor


Emma is a certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher with 18 years of teaching experience. She founded and ran the Essence of Yoga Studio in Sydney, Australia, for 10 years before returning to the UK with her family. This was a deeply special time in her life, where she witnessed firsthand how yoga can enhance lives, foster meaningful connections, and build community.
A debilitating back injury in 2003 eventually led Emma to Iyengar yoga. She began intensive study with Glenn and Margaret Ceresoli, and this transformative experience profoundly impacted not only her injury but also her yoga practice, personal growth, and spiritual journey. From that moment, she felt inspired to share this work with others.
Emma remains dedicated to ongoing study, training weekly with Senior Level 3 Iyengar teacher Judi Sweeting in the UK and attending annual workshops and retreats with Glenn Ceresoli. She is also a qualified Thai Yoga Massage Therapist and has studied Ayurvedic Lifestyle, complementing and enriching her teaching.
Her welcoming, accessible, and inclusive classes help students build strength and flexibility, restore energetic balance, and enhance mental and emotional well-being. She believes yoga is a powerful tool for self-management, helping us cultivate deeper connections and navigate life with greater stability, clarity, and inner peace.
