Aoife Caffrey

Aoife has been practising, teaching, and deepening her knowledge of holistic health modalities for over 20 years. These include yoga, reiki, massage, female anatomy, menstrual cycle awareness, eastern philosophy, Sanskrit, and Celtic Spirituality. She has travelled and worked in Ashrams and Yoga Studios in India, Australia and Ireland.

Aoife worked as a Reiki healer, yoga teacher and eco volunteer leader, at the ISKCON Krishna Village, Eco Yoga Community in Australia. During her time there Aoife studied the Bhagavad Gita, and a course in Intuitive Balinese Massage Therapy.

Aoife spent some time in Amma’s Ashram, Amritapuri, Kerala, India. Here she volunteered and studied yoga, sanskrit, vedanta and meditation. Bringing all she learned back to her home in Dublin she is working as a yoga teacher, healing facilitator, educator and menstrual cycle mentor, helping women to understand their unique cycle and how to live in better harmony with their body and the planet.

Aoife has worked with PT’s, Gyms and women in the fitness industry to educate them about the importance of women’s health, and how a person’s unique cycle can be a tool to help improve overall well-being and help women reach their fitness goals. Aoife has studied and worked closely with Kitty Maguire for a number of years, and has completed her 12 Month Menstrual Mentorship Training in Red Alchemy. Some of Aoifes offerings include:

Niamh Daly

Niamh has been teaching Hatha Yoga since 200a4 and is a registered Senior Teacher and Teacher Trainer. She holds an Advanced Diploma in Nutrition Coaching and is a Pilates Mat I&II teacher.

She qualified as a teacher in 2004, completed a mentorship with Marlene Ffrench Mullen, and has continued to study and professionally develop with Donna Farhi, renowned Clinical Anatomist John Sharkey, Integral Anatomist Gil Hedley, Somatics trainer Lisa Petersen and with Sarah Lo. She teaches men and women of all ages, but also specialises in Yoga for Menopause, and trains Yoga teachers around the world how to adapt Yoga to support women in this phase of life. She created Certificate in Teaching Yoga for the Stages of Menopause  in 2020, at the time it was one of just 2 courses of its kind in the world.

Her curiosity about the habitual holdings and reactions in the body from the physical and emotional stimuli of our human life, began with explorations in the Alexander Technique 27 years ago. From there, primarily through Yoga in its most recognisable forms, and influenced by 5 rhythms dancing, somatic movement, mindfulness and anatomy, she sought and found ways to regain neutrality in, and then free expression of our physical and emotional body.

She has trained in Hatha Yoga, and studied and/or practiced most of the variations of Yoga from its most traditional roots in India, to new approaches and hybrids. Responding to what Yoga has become in the west, and the prevalence of injury in the quest for linear “improvement”, her own style of teaching is an offering to students of her knowledge, but with an invitation to take what speaks to them and make it their own, and to let go of that which doesn’t sit well with them.

Her approach is pragmatic, as she is fascinated by the science of stretch, and what is logically possible for the average human body. She is also keen to ensure we stay strong for life, as well as relaxed, mobile and comfortable.
