Alexa Kho-Hinkson has been developing her practice in the Art of Yoga for over ten years, and teaching for over nine. Always inspired by her Grandmother's Yoga practice, she first stepped onto the mat while studying for her degree at Brunel University, and soon realised when starting full-time work in London that a regular practice was the best thing for her.
Having suffered from bouts of anxiety and depression, Yoga gave her the sense of peace that she had always been searching for and she wanted to share this with as many people as she could. Leaving a stressful hedge fund working environment, she decided she wanted to learn to teach Yoga.
So she ventured to Vrindavan, India for her first teacher-training course in February 2008 where Alexa was named “Ambika” by her teachers, during the 200 Hour Sivananda Yoga Teacher Training course that she successfully completed. Ambika means "Mother" or "Goddess", and with this name she was further inspired to create ‘Ambika Yoga’.
Having taught a wide range of clients with therapeutic issues such as sciatica, anxiety, high blood pressure, heart conditions, autoimmune diseases and injuries she has become a specialist in her field.
With this experience Alexa is now offering popular Therapeutic Yoga Teacher Training Workshops in London in 2017 to upcoming Yoga Teachers.
