I think you know by now that the whole \u2018point\u2019 of MFML is that we provide the very best teachers to your home, hotel, workplace or holiday cottage \u2013 wherever you are, so that you can just roll out your mat and start practicing.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

In fact, we believe in 4am sessions in dodgy tracksuit bottoms.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

But we also have our mission to bring you the very best of teachers.<\/strong><\/a> We get many requests from yoga teachers to teach on MFML. It’s so wonderful that folks believe in us for representing their life\u2019s work.<\/p>\n

And you know that my criteria for teachers is really strict<\/strong> \u2013 because I feel that I \u2018owe\u2019 you to bring you the very best, that\u2019s what you come to us for. \u00a0Many yoga studios these days ask teachers for their social media profile rather than their practice, but we rather our teachers just be great at teaching, and if they\u2019ve got squillions of social media followers we have a niggling suspicion that they may be better at marketing than teaching yoga!<\/p>\n

Teaching yoga, meditation and mindfulness isn\u2019t a job, it\u2019s a whole life\u2019s work,<\/strong> fuelled by our own practice. I feel that this way, the likes of you and I \u2018ordinary people\u2019 can really benefit from the wisdom<\/strong> of those who have dedicated their life to the study of yoga.<\/p>\n

Today we\u2019re introducing our newest teacher, Robin Watkins – Davis<\/a><\/h5>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

She\u2019s unusual.<\/strong> \u00a0An extraordinary person in many ways. When I first thought of bringing her onto the team, my immediate reaction was \u2018no\u2019. I usually demand decades of practice and teachings,<\/strong> to be renowned as a \u2018senior\u2019 teacher to be welcomed into the fold of MFML teachers. Robin didn\u2019t\u2019 have this.<\/strong> Because she\u2019s 18, and she was the youngest teacher to be accepted as a yoga teacher in the country, when she was 16.<\/p>\n

\n

>>Welcome Robin to the team on our Facebook Movers Group<\/a>>><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

But she has what so many of us in our fourth decade haven\u2019t achieved: a wisdom, and a mission.<\/strong> Robin knows her dharma. Her work is to make the practices of yoga accessible to teenagers and young people,<\/strong> who might be overwhelmed by social media, exams, or just growing up. It made me wish that I\u2019d discovered yoga when I was still at school \u2013 how much better would that experience have been?!<\/p>\n

\n

>>Try a yoga class with Robin>><\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"robin\"<\/a>I do hope you enjoy Robin\u2019s<\/a><\/strong> first class on the site.<\/h5>\n

And if you know of any young people or teenagers who you think might enjoy it, please do share and spread the word.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

with love
\nKat and team MFML
\nxxx<\/p>\n
