# Eka Yoga
Eka Yoga, based in Leicester, is a specialist yoga and mindfulness practice founded by Erica Burton-Sandrey. Drawing on a lifetime of yoga practice alongside formal qualifications including Calm for Kids and British Wheel of Yoga accreditation, Erica offers a holistic approach that extends beyond traditional postures to encompass philosophy, breathwork and bioenergy work.
The business serves a diverse clientele, from children in educational settings to adults seeking stress relief and physical development. Erica has particular expertise in supporting those with SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities), including neurodivergent individuals with autism, ADHD and dyslexia. She understands firsthand how yoga can provide practical tools for anxiety management, emotional regulation, sensory processing and improved sleep—benefits she has witnessed in her own family.
What distinguishes Eka Yoga is its personalised, integrative philosophy. Classes combine yoga asana with breathing techniques, meditation and visualisation, grounded in both ancient yoga traditions and contemporary understanding of the nervous system. Her background in fine art, philosophy and Reiki Master training informs a practice that treats the whole person rather than simply delivering physical exercise.
Erica holds full DBS clearance, first aid and safeguarding qualifications, ensuring safe practice across all settings. Whether teaching in schools, delivering private sessions or running community classes, she tailors instruction to individual needs, making yoga accessible and genuinely transformative rather than conventionally aspirational.
