Ida’s methodology is rooted in 360° training — Breath + Body + Mind.
Across yoga, functional strength, pilates, spinning, running, and meditation — breath is always the anchor.

She has coached a wide range of individuals, from world-class performers to beginners rediscovering their bodies.

For Ida, movement isn’t about perfection — it’s about connection:

“When I was moving, I could feel.”

Her mission is simple: to help people feel. Feel good.
To teach people to pause, breathe deeply, and move with intention — on the mat and beyond.​

  • I had been practicing Yoga for a number of years and I was falling into a routine of the same flows over and over, until I found Ida’s Chakra series, which really opened my eyes to what creative yoga is. The classes are all so different, yet so complimentary that makes me feel truly energised and open after I complete her class. Ida’s teaching is really clear which helps the flow of the practice and she gives great tips throughout that help with the trickier poses. I would recommend Ida’s yoga for any level or experience of yoga. She will have flows you will do time and time again.

  • I found myself coming to Ida’s chakras programme again and again. Ida cleverly weaves in chakras and philosophical aspects within the asana practice in a way that makes me feel engaged and energised. The classes were cohesive and challenging whilst also available as one offs if I wanted to work on specific aspects. For example, I did the throat chakra one just before a challenging work meeting and felt like I was more able to make myself heard.

  • I contacted Ida May when I was stuck in an exercise routine that had become tiresome and unchallenging. Ida gave me a new direction, got me out of my comfort zone, and helped me find a new routine. She gave me confidence to explore different classes and studios, which now means that my fitness regime is forever evolving and therefore very satisfying. Working out with Ida May is really fun too. Five Stars.

  • You were my lifesaver. When I needed you most you were there. And you were there always in good spirits. Always building me up and always encouraging me to do more and come back to life. Thanks my darling. This was a beautiful time in my life, just to be with you and to be encouraged by you.

  • Flowing with Ida is so much more than Yoga! It empowers my body, releases my mind and fills my heart with love! It's a highlight every week!

    Ann C | London, UK

  • Doing a PT session with Ida was nothing short of extraordinary - I hadn’t realised how much I needed this! Ida tailored the session to my needs and my objectives whilst also providing advice and posture corrections to my normal fitness routine. I came out sweaty, totally blissed out and proud of myself ! Can’t wait to do it again.

    Claire G | London, UK
