Private Yoga Classes

I am certified to teach anyone above the age of 12 years old, with a tailored approach (aka. non-formulated method). Especially if you have a specific goal in mind, or living with physical or mental health conditions; where group class might not be the perfect fit.

Together we can develop practices for different times of the day or for specific effects
(Eg. focusing on strengthening or increasing flexibility at specific area of the body, towards specific postures like inversions)

I am based in West London, and can travel to regions of Kensington & Chelsea, Hammersmith & Fulham, Shepherd’s Bush, Chiswick, Acton and Ealing. I also offer classes via online platforms (Zoom or Microsoft Teams), in case you are out of this area or want to keep up with your practice while travelling.

Dr Stanford Wong, Yoga Teacher standing in dark blue vest

Hi, I’m Stanford. I have been working as a medical doctor since 2013, specialised in Mental health and with interest in supporting Women’s health. My experience of looking after people living with a variety of physical and mental health problems has informed me on how to tailored Yoga practice alongside the modern day demand.

I started my own Yoga practice as a teenager and have been teaching Yoga since 2018. I have trained in the lineage of Krishnamacharya and T.K.V. Desikachar, I have learned that yoga practice can go beyond physical exercises; into therapeutic and spiritual evolutions.

 FAQs

  • There is no need to splash out on Yoga clothes or branded stuff when you first start the practice. However, it is good to wear something that is comfortable and you can move in. Any restrictions around the chest and abdomen regions would be best avoided.

    Yoga gear is not essential, as I teach in conferences or have clients coming straight from work. So we can always find a way to develop a practice suitable for the session.

  • Honestly a practice can be developed with no mat or props. Not to mention that they can get expensive and you will have to deal with storage between sessions. So I understand if you do not want to get much to begin with.

    However, it is nice to be able to lie down at the beginning or end of the practice. So most people will bring along their Yoga mat, for some padding between themselves and the floor, and minimise risk of slipping.

  • I accept payment in cash, bank transfer, PayPal or Revolt. Unfortunately, I don’t have a machine to take card payments at present.

    Contact me to organise your Yoga Therapy session.

  • The cost of living is rising and money can be an obstacle to signing up for regular Yoga classes. Get in touch via the contact form, so we can have a chat about cost and an agreeable payment plan.

  • I am taught that if one can breath, one can do Yoga. Especially since it is a practice that is very helpful for helping people to achieve stability again.

    My Yoga therapy training and experience of working as a medical doctor give me the unique skills of being able to tailor yoga practices to most clients and circumstances. We can work together to find a practice that give you the desired effect, whilst taking into consideration of your limitations. We can also look into signing you up for Yoga therapy, where the Yoga tools are applied to help you recover/reduce the condition/help you cope with long-term conditions.

    It is understandable that you feel nervous, especially if Yoga is a relatively new territory for you. Please get in touch via the contact form and we can set up a clarity call to discuss your needs.

  • It is important to keep up a regular practice as we go through different journey in life. I offer sessions via online platforms, do let me know when you are planning to be away and we can set things up ahead of time or while you are away.
