The History of Bodymasters
I am Hannah, I have been practising yoga for 15 years. I came to find yoga after the sudden and sad loss of my amazing Dad. Mum and I wanted to find something to help with the grief and loss. I went along to my first yoga class and for the first time since the loss, I felt a little peace in my mind and heart. I never looked back after that day and yoga has become a constant source of strength and calm for my body and mind. Yoga was something my Mum and I shared together, going along to classes and sharing our yoga practice. Sadly, she passed away in 2019. At this point, I vowed to become a teacher, sharing my love and passion for Yoga with others, helping them to build confidence and strength like I did against such adversity. The name 'Bodymasters' comes from the powerlifting gym my parents owned and ran in the 1980's. My dad Bob Szpalek was an international powerlifter, competing all across the world for Great Britain. My parents were inspirational people and I dedicate my yoga studio to their memory. I hope I can help and inspire people through my teaching, just like they did.
