Timetable at Hotpod Yoga Dulwich (London)

Originally from Canada, Lindsey moved to the UK to attend drama school in Bristol, and has spent the past decade working as an actor and writer. Her creative journey along with the need for a release from the hyper-competitive, commercial world of performance eventually led her to yoga, training as a teacher in Rishikesh, India — a transformative experience that deepened her love for movement and mindfulness.
After teaching at several Hotpod Yoga studios across London, Lindsey took over Hotpod Yoga Dulwich in December 2021 in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic. Since then, she’s cherished the chance to grow roots in the West Dulwich community. For Lindsey, the last three years have been incredibly special — the students and teachers make the studio feel like home, and she’s passionate about creating a welcoming space where everyone can breathe, move, and connect.

Sophie is a confident and warm facilitator who’s broad experience across dance, poetry and integrated therapy feed into her energising and cathartic classes.

Sophie took her first Hotpod class in Lisbon where the pod provided sanctuary as her mind and body adjusted to life in a new city.

Sophie has been teaching at HPY Margate for for the last 7 months and has adored her time there. She has made the decision to move back to South London and is looking forward to joining the Dulwich community and remain a part of the Hotpod family.

Veronique grew up in British Columbia, Canada and is a lover of oceans, mountains, sky and sun. She is a performer and singer at heart, bringing vocal and physical presence to her yoga classes.

After being told as a child by her ballet teacher that, ‘there was no hope for her flexibility’, Veronique (wrongly) spent years believing that she couldn’t do yoga.

Veronique is a believer that yoga practice is for every body, and encourages students to get to know their own individual frames through the breath. Years of being the least flexible person in the room has taught her that yoga is never about how asanas (poses) look aesthetically, but rather about exploring how they feel in the body.

Expect breath-led, energising practice with a focus on working with each practitioner’s own unique range of motion and flexibility.

Veronique is a RYS 200 hour teacher, and is continually training and learning! She has an interest in Forrest and Yin yoga, in pranayama and the body | mind connection, and in the benefits of yoga for performing artists.

As a yoga teacher, she brings to her students a depth of experience in Vinyasa flow with a main focus on alignment, feeling; and how the breath can help soothe and calm us. Liz also brings experience in beginner and injury-tailored yoga classes. Liz’s class can be intention-based as she strives to allow her students to take the happy hormones produced in the pod, outside of the pod, and into everyday life.

Hailing from Australia, he (predictably) loves the sun and sea, and is fascinated with the combination of surf and yoga culture. His ‘heat fix’ now mainly comes from the Pod where he has been an active member of the Dulwich community, having joined hundreds of classes, and is now super excited to join the teaching team too.

Elena came to yoga to find a bit of extra space in her mind and life in the busy and bustling city of London.

Allie loves to create a safe space in her classes, where her students can feel empowered through moving their bodies in a playful and nurturing way. Her classes are suitable for all levels and really encourage everyone to connect to the sensations of each posture, whilst maintaining a sense of calm in the mind. Prepare to leave feeling grounded, revitalised and proud of yourself!
