Roisi’s Yoga and Therapy Training background



Roisi Phelan

started practicing Yoga in 1987 as part of her shiatsu training.
Her interest developed further by studying and training in Yoga
and she qualified as a teacher with the Irish Yoga Association in 2000.

In 1999 she was introduced to the viniyoga approach to Yoga as taught to Paul Harvey
by his teacher TKV Desikachar and found it inspirational. Since then she has continued
to use the principle of the viniyoga of Yoga within her personal practice and Yoga teaching.

From 2000 to 2004 Roisi trained through the Clonlea Yoga Studio completing a Yoga
Introductory Workshop Course in 2001 and a Yoga Foundation Workshop Course in 2003,
as well as numerous individual lessons with Hanne Gillespie.

This led her to undertake a professionally accredited four year Practitioner Programme training,
through the Centre for Yoga Studies (cYs) in the UK with Paul Harvey, between 2005 and 2008
to learn both the teaching and therapeutic application of Yoga for groups and individuals.

From 2009 Roisi is undertaking an advanced two year Yoga Further Studies Programme
again through the Centre for Yoga Studies focusing on Yoga psychology
and therapeutic application of Yoga for individuals.

To support her work with Yoga, as well as for her personal development,
Roisi is partaking in a two year, part time, diploma course from 2008 in
Communications and Parent Mentoring, with clinical psychologist
Tony Humphreys, as part of the outreach program from University College Cork.

In addition to being registered by cYs as a Yoga Teacher for Yoga Tuition
and Yoga Practitioner for Yoga Therapy,
Roisi is professionally accredited to teach by the BWY,
a National Governing Body for Yoga in the UK and
UEFNY, the European Union of Yoga Federations.
