Profile

Chantal Rafferty originally trained in the Sivananda tradition, before taking a course at the Svyasa yoga therapy university in Bangalore, India. She then went on to study Viniyoga and continues to do so with her teachers Dave Charlton and Ranju Roy. She has practised and taught yoga for over 10 years. She is both a member of the BWY (British Wheel of Yoga) and the AYS (Association of Yoga Studies). Her passion is Viniyoga and her classes reflect the idea that yoga is for everyone regardless of age, fitness and flexibility! Chantal also runs classes for people with C.F.S. and M.E. Chantal is also an advanced Thai yoga massage practitioner, having trained with Kira Balaskas in London and Greece. She currently gives Thai yoga massage treatments in and around the Cheltenham area. As well as practising the massage, she also works with Gareth Williams, her partner, in training Thai yoga massage practitioners. Together they run Cheltenham Yoga - Cheltenham's largest dedicated yoga school. Since 2007 they have been running Living Yoga Holidays - a specialist yoga holiday business covering Europe and the UK.
