Daniel & Olivia are the founders of Yogapod UK.
We’ve been practising ashtanga yoga for over 25 years. We met in India and taught yoga in London and the USA before settling in the West Country in 2001. We established our yoga studio and our home at Bull Mill Arts, a community of artists created by Lord Bath on the Longleat estate in Wiltshire, in an idyllic rural mill house surrounded by water meadows and woodland. Currently, we teach weekly yoga classes and one-to-one tuition in Wiltshire, Somerset and Dorset. We teach and host weekend yoga workshops and CPD training courses in anatomy and physiology, history and philosophy, pranayama, asana and meditation, and we’ve led yoga retreats in Spain, Italy, India, Japan, USA and Venezuela.
