‘We both wished to thank you for such an amazing week of yoga. Your generosity of time, knowledge and spirituality made it a very special week with a huge learning curve through a very deep practice. So many aspects of yoga were covered and we both really appreciated that. It was also a really fun week – having the children there was lovely too and they added a special fun aspect to the holiday in a way that only children can. The group, the venue and friendships made or deepened also made the week very special.’ Maria and Andrew Baranowski

“I’ve tried many yoga teachers over the years and Jeff is undoubtedly one of my absolute favourites. He has an acute attention to detail when it comes to the postures and he is great at educating the class on the philosophy behind yoga.

I went on a yoga retreat of his in Goa and the experience really blew me away. By the end of the week I had noticed a huge development in my yoga…from really perfected asanas through to very profound levels of meditation. Jeff is able to create a great atmosphere in his classes, as he encourages and challenges people at the right pace, whilst keeping it light-hearted and focused.

I’ve recently been suffering from sciatica and Jeff has been the one teacher that showed me ways in which I could do the poses without experiencing anywhere near as much pain. He managed to give me focused attention whilst still maintaining a real flow to the class. I highly recommend him.’ Nina Constantin

Jeff will be sharing the teaching with Simon Low, one of the UK’s leading
yoga teachers, for this unique and special opportunity to experience a
wonder-ful week of yoga at a fabulous venue on the beach in Koh Samui,   
Thailand.

We are both really excited about the freshness and newness of combining our
teaching for this holiday. Also that this is such a fantastic dedicated yoga
retreat centre, as well as a ‘Wellness Centre’ where you can have delicious
healthy food and even do a detox programmes. Located on the more peaceful south
of the island, right on a virtually private beach, all rooms have an ocean view
and we recommend that you take a proper look at their website to get a feel for
this amazing venue and what they have to offer.

More About Tachyon.

According to quantum physics, the material universe is nothing more than a very dense form of energy. Everything that exists in this universe, from the most subtle, refined realms of energetic structures, to the grossest, densest realms of matter, is aligned in an energy continuum.

Energy flows constantly from these highly refined subtle realms-starting from the causal or super causal world as it is referred to in Yoga teachings and moving down through the astral, etheric, electromagnetic levels and finally into the material realm of existence.

Everything that exists on Earth exists within its own Energetic Continuum, our bodies being a perfect example. In addition to the material, physical body that we perceive with our senses, we have several other layers of energetic bodies. Through all these layers of energy, an Energetic Continuum flows from the highest, most refined subtle bodies down to the material body.

The energy flowing through the Energetic Continuum comes from one source. In India , it is called the Divine Mother. Christianity calls it the Holy Spirit, and in many modern, New Age spiritual teachings it is called Cosmic Energy. Modern physics calls it Zero-Point Energy.

At this point, it is important to understand that Zero-Point Energy should not be confused with a particular form of energy, such as etheric or astral energy. Zero-Point Energy is formless. It is the source of everything. All realms of the subtle energies are just parts of the Energetic Continuum.

Tachyon Energy is the very first energetic structure that emerges out of non-structured, formless Zero-Point Energy. Just like Zero-Point Energy, Tachyon is not limited to a certain frequency. Tachyon cannot be measured in the hertzian frequency spectrum.

It is not a certain type of energy. Rather, it includes all energy potential within itself. Its qualities are much like Zero-Point Energy, varying only in that it is a structured form.

In itself, Tachyon Energy has stored all the potential needed to create a perfect Energetic Continuum in every individualized form we know. Everything that transpires in the human body, for example, is already encoded within Tachyon Energy in perfect form.

Without yoga, I really think life would be harder. It keeps me sane mainly because of its stress relieving properties – I always leave your classes with a feeling of peaceful positive calm. I get a great sense of accomplishment every week. I can definitely feel the improvement after if I’ve had a break from yoga. I used to get back ache and they have disappeared since taking up yoga.

Your classes are friendly and you don’t take yourself or the practice too seriously (by that I mean you take it seriously, but you’re not serious). A great class, one that I’ve enjoyed attending weekly for over 2 years.”

I took up Yoga with Jeff about a year ago. Whilst not being able to contort my body as others in the class do, I was stretching parts of my body other exercises didn’t reach and within weeks my sciatic pains lifted. It’s good to have the discipline of a weekly class and can honestly say I now sleep better and my body is less tense – though I still can’t touch my toes!”
