About
Gemma Deeney returned to Ireland from Hong Kong in 2004, where she spent a very important and interesting part of her life as a Reebok Master Trainer, specialising in Reebok disciplines such as Reebok Martial Arts, Reebok Exercise to Music, Reebok Flexible Strength, Reebok Core training to mention a few.
While she was there she became intrigued with the yoga teachings of Master Kamal (an Indian Master teaching in Hong Kong at the time) and eventually studied and practiced Hatha yoga under his superb guidance.
When fate took her back to Ireland, she began teaching her Master’s techniques here in Dublin, Naas and Blessington.
If you don’t have a goal, it’s hard to be motivated to workout for your goals. If your goal isn’t specific, it will prove to be very difficult to have the motivation or knowledge of how to achieve the goal.
Working with a professional trainer like Gemma provides both the HOW and the confidence that it can be done! Ambitious beginners and gym rats, we all have our ups and downs when it comes to shaping our bodies, men and women alike, but setting smart short-term and long-term fitness goals before we start training will make the difference between actually reaching our targets and giving up after the first days of sweating.
Gemma firmly believes that yoga is not about being flexible. Yoga is about showing up on your mat with no expectations of how it should go. Yoga is a lifestyle with no judgement. Yoga is about self-discovery. Yoga is about slowing down and seeing something greater than yourself. Yoga is the ultimate practice of self-compassion and compassion is incomplete unless it includes yourself.
My
Classes & Covid 19
My Covid protections are as follows:
Mask to Mat (and leaving your Mat), Bring your own Mat, there is hand sanitiser on site, and mat sanitiser onsite. I strongly recommend that Yogis consider doing an Antigen test sporadically if in close contact with anyone who has Covid.
Antigen tests can be purchased at a very low cost at “Circle K” Petrol stations, “Aldi” and most Chemists. If you have any Covid symptoms, please do not come to class.
The Yoga Experience
I believe that Yoga is the path to a fuller, more satisfying physical existence. I believe that being in control of your body helps you to be in control of your life.
