I want to thank you so much for the yoga session. Was starting to develop a sacrum pain and I knew it was coming from piriformis and you helped stretch that. It feels at home and back in it’s place. How did you know?!

Hernan, Everybody Health

I love Muriel’s online Yin Yoga sessions because they feel like deep self-care, both physically and mentally. Resting in positions helps me to slow down, soften and let go. It’s very restorative after busy weeks, and reminds me to allow myself a different pace.

I have been attending Muriel’s yoga classes for over 15 years, and I can honestly say she is the best yoga teacher I have ever had the pleasure of learning from.

Her knowledge, wisdom, authenticity, kindness and the joy she brings to her classes stay with me long after each session has ended.

My physical and mental health, as well as my overall wellbeing, have improved greatly since I began attending Muriel’s classes.

My favourite is her Sunday online Yin Yoga class. Afterwards, I feel completely rejuvenated, as though I have just returned from a retreat!

I would highly recommend Muriel’s Zoom classes to anyone looking to nurture their mind, body and soul.

Claire Pitcher, Kenilworth

I have had the pleasure of practising with Muriel for many years in person and on line. Regular online classes have always been very special to me and it feels like Muriel is in the room. She always finds the right level of teaching with the perfect blend of flow, stretch, balance and grounding. Muriel shares her love and warmth with you even on Zoom!

I have been practicing yoga with Muriel for many years. Her online classes leave me feeling invigorated in body and peaceful in mind. Absolutely lovely.

Thank you soooooo much for the workshop on Saturday. I cannot express how grateful I am for the experience. I enjoyed every single minute of it; the reading, the practice, yoga nidra, you have such a soothing voice!!
Mara

I wanted to let you know that I had a real ‘aha’ moment during the last Yin Yoga session and it really lifted some negative energy that I’ve been holding on to for well over a year. Your session helped me to connect with challenging feelings and through exploration gave me insight into why I was holding on to these feelings. I recognised that I was keeping myself in a victim position by holding on to these feelings. When this aha moment happened I knew I didn’t want to feel like a victim anymore and since the session I have chosen self compassion and acceptance of what happened. I feel so much lighter now and still!!!
So I wanted to say thank you for your wisdom and knowledge, and for creating the conditions that enabled me to fully connect with myself.

I have been going to MuMu Yoga for about 5 years or so and as a freelancer it allows me to dip in and out when I can. The atmosphere is always really good with the right mixture of knowledgeable concentration on working to the best of one’s ability and a good sense of humour. MuMu knows everyone’s names and is always welcoming. I always enjoy my time in the class. 5 ⭐
David Charles, Actor
Muriel is just the most wonderful, inspirational yoga teacher. She has the ability to tune into the needs of all her students. She is sympathetic and supportive and extraordinarily versatile. Her classes are rooted in what she feels is necessary at that moment – whether it’s the changing of the seasons, the weather, the passage of the moon or just the fact that one of us has mentioned feeling down or sad or tired. Her classes are restorative, strengthening and so enjoyable. I couldn’t do without them or her and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you for everything Muriel – you are a total inspiration!
Celia Melia
Such a brilliant class – as strong or gentle as you need it to be – I’ve been going to it for ten years. Muriel is a beautiful, caring yogini, sensitive in her teaching to the class, our surroundings and the seasons of the year. I leave her classes feeling peaceful, energised and blissed out!
Monica Castenetto, Life Coach
I can’t praise Muriel highly enough. Not only is she absolutely one of the loveliest people I’ve ever met but she is a hugely accomplished yoga teacher and a very spiritual person into the bargain. She is gentle and encouraging with novices and supportive and inspiring to the more experienced. If you’ve always wanted to practise yoga but never got round to it these are the classes to try first. Never intimidating and great fun too.
Crissy Duff, Kingston
I have had many yoga teachers and I find Muriel to be among the best. She has an incredible warmth and leads her classes with intelligence whilst catering to individual needs and abilities. I simply love her classes.
Louise van Herpen, Isleworth
Muriel is a most wonderful teacher. She has the most caring nature, is very in tune with all her attendees. She is very knowledgable and attends numerous courses to continue her training. Each class is different and her instruction is superb. She embraces meditation and her classes are truly restorative. I would urge anyone who loves yoga or wishes to try yoga to attend one of her sessions. You will not be disappointed!
Marguerite Bowers-Clarke, Kingston

I attend a Friday morning class at MuMu Yoga. I wish that I could be available for the other classes run by Muriel during the week as it is a really fantastic class. Muriel exudes calm and caters the class to the needs of each individual so that it is never too hard or too easy.

Pauline Sharratt, Kingston
Muriel is a warm, friendly person with a deep knowledge and love of yoga. These attributes are evident in her relaxed and open teaching style and she communicates with clarity and enthusiasm. She makes everybody feel welcome (regardless of their level of experience or ability), and the combination of her excellent technical knowledge and her compassionate nature enables each student to get the maximum benefit from each class. Attending her classes is a genuine pleasure.
Isabel Isaacson, Kingston
Muriel’s eclectic yoga practice brings harmony back to a high-wire life style by mixing fundamentals of the Iyengar method with other styles and the calming spirit of a true Teacher.
John Leggate, Wimbledon
Muriel applies her experience of yoga and her knowledge of the human body to the individual yoga student. She is sensitive to each student’s abilities and limitations which is why her popularity, as a yoga teacher, has grown from strength to strength. Her classes are equally beneficial for beginners and advanced students, as Muriel subtly adapts the postures to suit the student.
Rena Biedka, Kingston

I first attended Muriel’s yoga class 9 years ago and at that time had a shoulder injury which meant I was unable to raise my arm above shoulder level. As my mother had suffered from severe Rheumatoid and Osteo Arthritis I decided to attend yoga classes to improve my own flexibility. After just a few classes I was able to move my arm more and more and after a few months, had no restriction in movement of my arm whatsoever and my overall flexibility improved dramatically. Muriel’s classes are both revitalising and relaxing, she is an absolutely brilliant teacher – a great mentor to all of us who have been attending her classes.

Jules Glover, Wimbledon
I had tried yoga before but until I attended Muriel’s classes I had no idea how incredibly powerful it could be – not only in terms of physical well-being but also mental tranquillity. My posture has improved dramatically and my body is freer, stronger, more flexible and more defined. Attending her classes is a genuine pleasure.
Kathryn McLoughlin, Surbiton

I love Muriel’s yoga classes. Her vast experience and expertise makes each class different but well thought out. Muriel is qualified in many styles of yoga and offers something for everyone. I feel truly nurtured with her yoga but at the same time her classes remain fun.

Justine Evans, Fertility Expert

Amazing yin classes. Muriel holds the space beautifully and I really notice a shift emotionally and physically after I have attended her classes.

Justine Evans

Muriel is a gentle, caring, beautiful superstar. Whatever your age or experience, she watches over you with equal attention. Her yoga classes are a true life-affirming delight. Highly recommended.

Ivor Powell

I love Muriel’s yoga classes and workshops and I highly recommend them to anyone whether a complete novice or an experienced yogi/yogini. Muriel has a deep knowledge of various forms of yoga, the human body and psyche and how the practice of yoga benefits not just our bodies but also our minds and souls. It doesn’t matter who you are and what your level of ability is. Muriel’s classes are welcoming and friendly and Muriel gives plenty of options for everyone so that you can work at your own pace whatever your body can or cannot do. There is no judgement at all, just encouragement, warmth and empathy. I have been attending Muriel’s classes on and off for about ten years and I am always amazed at how there are never two classes the same. It never gets boring and you get different experiences each time. Muriel has the wonderful ability and sensitivity to adapt the flow and sequences to the season, the weather or just what I would call ‘the mood of the moment’. Somehow she always seems to sense what people need on any specific day and time and translate that into a class that does us good and just seems to be what each and every one of us needed.

Geraldine Mateu

I have been doing Yoga with Muriel for 3 years now and can not recommend her enough. I have attended her classes, workshops, pregnancy yoga and Mum and Baby yoga classes. Muriel is a wonderful teacher with a holistic approach to teaching which nurtured and nourishes both body and mind. She is approachable and has extensive knowledge of the yoga philosophy as well as the subtleties of practice. More than a teacher, Muriel is a great human with a big heart who fundamentally cares about her students and the people around her. After every class I walk away with fresh new energy and happy, thank you Muriel x

Marie-Cecile Pommier

I have been coming to Muriel's classes for almost 10 years. I have loved every single class and always leave feeling better both physically and mentally. Muriel is an inspiring teacher, she inspired me to train as a yoga teacher myself and has offered her bountiful insight and knowledge to encouragement and support my practice.

Sam Bullock

I just wanted to share my experience practicing yoga with Muriel who is an absolutely fantastic yoga teacher for those of you who’ve not had the pleasure of practicing with her. Her knowledge of the body is mind blowing. I trusted her completely when I was pregnant - her pregnancy yoga classes were beautifully adapted & you still feel like you have a wonderful yoga session stretching all the right muscles & working with your pregnant body. I was in labour during a class & it never crossed my mind when i woke up thinking everything was happening not to go to Muriel’s class. It could only be beneficial to me which is absolutely was. Outside of pregnancy I try to get to as many of Muriel’s workshops which are a must - taking that time out is so important for all of us & these workshops really help you to connect with yourself. I’ve attended Chakra Dancing with Muriel too which is so much fun, lighthearted & is incredible at letting your body let go. If you’re looking for an amazingly experienced, knowledgeable & spiritual teacher I can’t recommend Muriel enough!

Alison Coleshill

I do Muriel's Yin Yoga class on Sundays, I do it as many times as my diary allows. I come away feeling so good. It is my time to restore, stretch and have me time, it is just such a great class. Muriel is a wonderful, spiritual teacher. She is so gifted at what she does. She brings a great energy to the class, and when she gives her little chats during some of the poses they are so meaningful and normally resonate with something personal in your life and make you think. I can't recommend more highly. The big upside is she does them every week- Yey!!!!!. She does other classes which are just amazing but just for me Yin is my favourite :))))) can never have enough of it.

Natalie Futcher

Muriel is a truly fantastic teacher. My first class with her was in 2006 and this is what awakened my love for yoga. Muriel's yoga is healing for body and mind. She is a very warm and spiritual person who clearly loves sharing her knowledge and insight.

Anna Sundberg

I've been going to Muriel's classes for over 7 years now, seeing several milestones in my life from regular classes to pregnancy yoga, mum & baby sessions and delightful weekend workshops. Muriel's style is warm, inclusive, insightful, generous and honest. I feel very lucky to have such a special person as my yoga teacher.

Flora Mac Donald

Muriel is an amazing yoga teacher. Her teaching perfectly blends a physical and holistic way of training, which yields amazing beneficial results for both your body and mind. I can't recommend her enough.

Kate Stuart

Brilliant yoga classes, incorporating mindfulness into the physical practice, great support and encouragement from Muriel, always a welcoming and heart warming environment.

Serge Tampakakis

I spent a weekend on yoga and meditation retreat with Muriel in 2014 and although I've been practicing yoga for 15 years Muriel taught me so many new ways to really get the best out of the practice whilst being able to give equal attention to everyone else in the group. She gave me wonderful new insight and knowledge and put together a retreat of such lovely like minded people. We also enjoyed guided meditation and heart meditations with her and created a real openness and connection between the group. Muriel is one of those once in a lifetime people you meet who is such an amazing generous and lovely spirit. Thanks Muriel for including me and hoping to be able to get to another one of your retreats this year :)

Dianna Maria Bonner

I joined Mumu Yoga classes a long time ago while I was going through deeply stressing and difficult time in my life. These classes became my hour of heaven, I learned to take a moment in me and breath deeply, and to recognise the moments when I need to do so. I have since moved out of the country and have never since been able to find a teacher who takes you in as an individual and makes the experience personal for each student. I highly, highly recommend Muriel's classes to everyone, new and old yoga-fans xxx
