Meet the Teachers
The warm, experienced team behind Harbour Yoga Studio — here to support your practice at every stage.
Who We Are
Harbour Yoga Studio is built around knowledgeable, approachable teachers who genuinely love what they do.
At Harbour Yoga Studio we believe the relationship between student and teacher is at the heart of a meaningful practice. Our teachers bring expertise across a range of yoga styles — from dynamic Vinyasa Flow to restorative Yin, from carefully structured Beginners classes to specialist Pregnancy Yoga — so whatever brings you to the mat, you will be in safe, encouraging hands.
Class sizes are kept small so that every student receives personal attention, clear alignment guidance, and the space to progress at their own pace. We welcome complete beginners and experienced practitioners alike.
Maya Collins — Founder & Lead Teacher
Maya founded Harbour Yoga Studio to create a welcoming space for Brighton's yoga community.
Maya Collins is the founder and lead teacher of Harbour Yoga Studio. Her teaching draws on a deep personal practice and a genuine passion for making yoga accessible to everyone — whether you are stepping onto a mat for the very first time or deepening a long-standing practice.
Maya teaches Vinyasa Flow, Yin, and Beginners Yoga, weaving together thoughtful sequencing, breath awareness, and clear hands-on guidance. Her classes have a reputation for being both challenging and inclusive, with modifications always offered so every body can participate fully.
Outside the studio, Maya is an active part of the Brighton wellness community and continues her own study and training to bring fresh insight to her teaching.
Specialist Pregnancy Yoga Teaching
Our Pregnancy Yoga classes are led by a teacher with specialist training in prenatal yoga.
Harbour Yoga Studio's Pregnancy Yoga classes are designed specifically for expectant mothers, adapting postures, breathwork and relaxation techniques to support each trimester safely and gently. The classes provide a nurturing space to connect with your changing body, ease common discomforts, and meet other mothers-to-be in Brighton.
Please get in touch before joining if you have any medical considerations, so we can ensure the class is right for you.
