Instructors
Graham
Graham is the founder of River Flow Yoga and is a qualified yoga teacher. He is deeply experienced in working in the fields of senses, having worked for 20 years with deaf and blind people. Graham draws inspiration from the mountains and the river and offers accessible yoga classes, as well as Thai yoga massage.
Greg
Greg Hincks is a professional swimming instructor whose specialty is teaching adults the techniques to confidently and safely swim in outdoor bodies of water. Be it an ocean, a river, a lake or just a giant pond, Gregโs goal is to teach you to develop skills that are quite different to those used in swimming laps in an indoor pool. Many experienced pool swimmers in the UK remain nervous about transferring their exercise to the open water.
