Yoga practices and teaching for people who want to go a little deeper.
I'm Gem Maryan, E-RYT 500 and yoga therapist in training (C-IAYT). On this channel you'll find Yin yoga, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, restorative practice, yoga nidra, meditation and chair yoga for older adults and people with limited mobility.
My teaching is rooted in anatomy, nervous system awareness and somatic research. Not yoga as performance. Yoga as a precision tool for working with real bodies, in real life.
This channel sits alongside my work at Deeside Yoga Institute, where I offer advanced teacher training in Yin, Restorative and Somatic practice, and one-to-one yoga therapy sessions.

Yoga with Gem

Hello everyone! I wanted to update you all on some exciting new content coming your way on November 24th! As a passion project, this channel is a fun way for me to connect with you all, but between moving house and keeping up with clients, I haven’t had time to pre-record videos. Your support means so much, and I truly appreciate you being here with me on this journey.

For those of you who’ve commented on the YouTube ads, I know it can be frustrating. Unfortunately, I can't change that until the channel hits 4,000 watch hours and 1,000 subscribers. Any help getting there would be amazing, but I completely understand that we all have busy lives. If you feel my videos could benefit someone, please feel free to share them! It would really help spread the word.

In the meantime, if you're looking for more in-depth support with your practice, I offer private sessions both in-person and online. You can find more details and book directly through my website at www.gemmaryan.co.uk.

Additionally, I have an exclusive "Yoga On Demand" service with unlimited access to over 50 hours of ad-free classes for just £4.99 per month. It’s perfect for anyone looking to practice at their own pace with no interruptions.

With over 15 years of teaching and practicing yoga, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Whether you're new to yoga or looking to deepen your practice, I offer expertise across a range of styles, from Yin Yoga to functional anatomy, helping you to practice safely and effectively.

Thank you again for being part of this community—I can’t wait to practice with you soon! Don’t forget to subscribe, and feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hey everyone! I'm in the middle of packing and preparing to move house at the beginning of November, so things have been a bit all over the place with my video uploads lately and I'm only managing one upload a week. But don’t worry, I’ll be back on track by the end of November with a live Friday evening Yin class - I really hope you can join me for that!

In the meantime, I’ve been trying out a new format for my Yin videos, and I’d love to hear what you think. Here’s my latest full-body Yin Yoga practice, perfect for an all-around session that works the entire body.

Did you know I’ve been teaching Yin Yoga for almost 14 years now? I’ve been practising even longer! How is it that time flies so fast, and suddenly you’re in your mid-40s? 😅

Well, today didn’t go quite as planned! 😅 I uploaded this morning's video and... yikes, the sound was terrible! But don’t worry, it’s all fixed now and sounding MUCH better. Huge apologies if it gave you a bit of a shock when you clicked on it! Oh, and I even spotted a little typo in the intro—definitely one of those mornings. Let’s just blame it on the eclipse in my sign, shall we? 🌒✨ Thanks for your patience and hope you enjoy the video! https://youtu.be/8MUR4jHr3KY

Tomorrow practice will be up at 4pm BST as I am away and having some problems uploading due to location...not the most reliable internet when in the far reaches of northern Scotland. However, after 20 years of living here ... it's still magnificent :-) ‪@yogawithgem‬
