About Me
Van
I’m Van, a queer yoga teacher from Réunion Island, now based in Bow, London. Yoga became my path to healing after a shoulder injury, leading me to complete my 200-hour Vinyasa training in 2022 and a 300-hour Hatha training in Rishikesh in 2023.
“Be Your Own Sunshine” began as a mantra during London’s grey winters, and evolved into “BYOS” before becoming mission to light up lives through movement and mindfulness.
Wherever I go, I bring my energy, warmth, and a big smile. My passion is making people feel good, so with BYOS I want to help others find their light, feel empowered, and grow from within. I believe that with the right tools and mindset, we all have the ability to shine in our own way.
So grab a mat and come shine with me. 🌞
My mission is to create a space where everyone feels welcome, safe, and free to be their authentic self. Whether through yoga, meditation, or bringing people together, I believe in the power of community and connection. If I can help facilitate meaningful experiences that uplift and inspire, then I know I’m doing the right thing.
Who we serve
BYOS is for anyone seeking a grounded, energising space to reconnect with their body, align their energy, and grow in confidence, through movement, breathwork, and mindset. We welcome all levels and all identities.
BYOS heart beats loudest for LGBTQ+ men, offering a space to explore yoga without judgment, pressure, or pretense.
Come as you are. This is your space to move, breathe, and belong.
