Meet The Team
Debbie has practised yoga for a number of years and has always enjoyed the calming and strengthening effect it has had on her life. When her youngest son was born with Cerebral Palsy, she was interested to see how yoga could help him too; he really enjoyed yoga and got a lot out of it however the nearest yoga class was so far away that they could only attend now and again. Debbie feels lucky to have attended The Special Yoga Centre in London where she completed training for Yoga for the Special Child. She also completed her yoga teacher training in August 2013 with CYS. She enjoys sharing the benefits of yoga with her son as well as other children and adults with special needs and their carers. Debbie qualified as a massage therapist so she could bring a different element of health and wellbeing to the charity. She also teaches carers classes, mainstream students, children and adults with special needs, outreach work and manages the booking system and waiting list for Yogability.

Jane’s yoga journey started when she first came to Glasgow, and practiced yoga at a weekly class at the Steiner school. Life got in the way after her daughters were born, and as she was still curious about yoga, she took it up again as the girls got older. She got in touch with Yogability in November 2013, to enquire about volunteering. Since then she has practiced regularly and in 2015 started RYT 200 hours training at Merchant City Yoga in Glasgow.
Jane has a regular practice in Hatha Yoga, along with meditation and pranayama She has completed extra studies in Yin yoga, yoga for children, Outreach yoga, and is currently undergoing Accessible Yoga training with Jivana Hayman. Jane teaches regular classes both online and in person.
