🔥 Over 300€ raised for Cancer Charity!!!! 🔥

A massive 🙌 THANK YOU 🙌 to all who came along in support of our Beer Yoga for Charity event. All the proceeds raised go to Cancer Research UK, and as this was our third event, we've now raised over 1000€ in total 😀😀😀

Bravo to the fantastic members of our Lyon community who turned up, sipped pints even in dry January, and twisted themselves into all sorts of yoga poses; for a very good cause. Your support made this possible ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you to Richy Higgins at Johnny Walsh's Irish Pub, Vieux Lyon.

Wave goodbye to dry January, it's time to trade your detox for a retox and do it all in the name of charity! 🍻✨

We’re back with our third charity fundraiser, with every single drop of donation going straight to Cancer Research UK.

Bring your pals, grab your yoga mat (or just your enthusiasm) and order your preferred tipple. Nina, Lyon’s yoga teacher for expats, will lead you through a joyfully bendy session fit for the totally un-bendy, beer lovers, seasoned yogis and just about anyone who can lift a pint to their lips.

To reserve your place:
1) Whatsapp Nina 0649257523 or Emma 0749609172
2) We will send you a link to directly make your donation to Cancer Research UK

For your donation:
You will take part in a 1 hour session of all levels yoga, plus cake will be available for you to eat after the yoga (non vegan). Drinks are not included in your donation, you can buy all your favourite drinks at the bar.
See you there ^^

I’m super proud of the retreat I hosted this weekend with Ayurvedic chef Miki for a wonderful group of students I’ve had the pleasure of teaching since my early days arriving in France. Alongside my usual melting-pot style of yoga, I added a Thai Massage workshop into the line-up. It was my first time teaching massage, and I’m happy to say everyone genuinely enjoyed it.

Miki cooked up an absolute storm of delicious Indian food that kept us all extremely well fed - proper hearty, healthy dishes, colourfully put together, and exactly what we needed to keep us going between sessions.

All of it took place in a beautiful old 'hermitage', think wooden beams, stone floors, open fire; that created the perfect setting for a memorable weekend. I'm really looking forward to my next one in March ^^

A rather nice spot for a spot of yoga this morning. On my holidays only yoga can get me out of bed at 6am, but it's worth it to climb these spectacular cliffs to practice with the wind and the crashing waves.
Feels so good and so worth it every time.

After months of preparation, my first retreat finally happened and I'm proud to say it was a resounding success 🙌

The intention of this weekend escape was to give everyone the space and time to disconnect from the demands of daily life; to then reconnect more centred, focused and recharged...
..believe me, by the end of the retreat everyone really was ready to go again!

Here's how the transformation happened:

✨️ 2 nights (3 days) in the stunning surroundings of the Vercours mountains

✨️ homely and comfy accommodation in a welcoming gîte with friendly hosts, plus their cats and chickens

✨️ yummy food homecooked with love, including freshly laid eggs for brunch

✨️ daily yoga created for everyone of all levels by yours truly

✨️ Qi Gong to uplift & recharge internal energy levels while harmonising with nature

✨️ Shamanic circle, an unique experience to connect with the beat of the drum to encourage clarity and purpose

✨️ a group size of 10 absolutely lovely people coming together to share, listen and support

I can honestly say that all of us felt great upon returning to Lyon.

A one of a kind experience 🧡💜

Qi Gong Teacher Training in Andalusia Spain with Marissa Cranfill; a phenomenal teacher whose You Tube videos rock up over 6 million views each. Her training courses literally sell out in hours, so it's an absolute privilege to be here learning and being inspired by her.

Half way through this 10 day immersion of cultivating my vital life-force through breathing techniques, flowing movement sequences and mental concentration; I'm feeling alive with an awakened strength that transcends my physical body. It's seriously powerful stuff!

I'm super excited to be teaching at this upcoming 2 two day weekend music focused retreat including meditation, yoga, hiking in nature, hearty food and a bonfire!

Music performance by Krishna Deva and Clement Bresson is in the form of kirtan, a deep form of devotional chanting that engages everyone through call and response. Our special meditation circle will also be accompanied by this gentle music and mantra.

We'll hike out into nature to enjoy the countryside and the surrounding natural beauty, to allow the magic to reset your system and refill your cup. Afterwards enjoy a hearty lunch and closing circle that will prepare you for returning to daily life with renewed vitality and enthusiasm!

On this Saturday to Sunday escape, expect:

🌞 Uplifting live Kirtan music performance
🌞 Meditation circle with music
🌞 A calming yet enlivening yoga flow class
🌞 Sumptuous food
🌞 A hike in the countryside
🌞 Cosy living space
🌞 Good people, good vibes!

If it's all been a bit hectic for you lately then come and join us for some switch off and reset time, just for you.
