About me

Hey! I am Amanda Ye

Some people like to call me Qian which is my original Chinese name, the pronunciation is more like Chen, but the spelling is QIAN, however, please choose the easiest way for you and I will smile when you can pronounce correctly.

I was born and grew up in Shanghai China, then lived over 8 years in Japan and graduated with an Economic Politics Master degree in Tokyo, and then lived in Oslo Norway for 3 years,  then lived in Abingdon UK for 6 years, and then lived in Stavanger Norway for another 3.5 years, then lived in Hannover Germany for 3 years, and then I moved to the UK again in 2018 and then found my love and moved to a lovely little village called North Leigh

I started yoga many years ago, but I never really into it,  always busy for the kids, family, travel, and work, until I met Ashtanga Yoga and clicked to it, and started regular practice, I feel I am so lucky that I have this opportunity to learn and benefit from it. I would love to share my experience and my practice with more people who are interested in Ashtanga Yoga.

After a few years of dedicated yoga practice, I was fortunate to deepen my journey by studying sound healing. I received professional training through the Sound Healing Academy in London, where I gained a solid foundation in this powerful practice.

Additionally, I had the unique opportunity to study under Master Shree, a renowned expert in Tibetan singing bowls, during a special training program in China. I also undertook specialized training focused on using sound healing to support individuals living with cancer, further enriching my understanding and approach to this therapeutic practice.
