One of our most anticipated gatherings of the year is here with an additional offering in Yoga Loft ~ a winter circle woven with warmth, softness and the gentle magic of cacao 🌿

As the nights grow darker and the world slows into stillness, we return to the two ancient flames that hold us most deeply:
the heart ~ our inner fire,
and the hearth ~ the shared fire of community, connection and story.

This ceremony brings them together in a cosy, soul-nourishing evening to close 2025 with intention, tenderness and light.

❄️ What’s inside our Heart & Hearth Ceremony:
• Heart-opening cacao ritual
• Reflective journalling
• Restorative breathwork
• Guided meditation
• Deep sound bath immersion
• Intuitive oracle card guidance
A time to soften… to exhale… to listen…
and to reconnect with the warmth that lives within and around us.

Booking is now open ~ this is one of our most-loved events and spaces fill quickly.
Reserve your place through the Yoga Loft ✨

Can’t wait to share this beautiful winter afternoon with you

From our very first class to today, The Yoga Loft has become so much more than a studio, it’s become a sanctuary of warmth, laughter, and shared energy. For 10 incredible years, we’ve welcomed complete beginners and lifelong yogis, watched friendships form, and seen confidence and calm through every class.

We’re so grateful for our teachers, our members, and our wider community who’ve made The Yoga Loft what it is a space where everyone is welcome.
So much more than a room with a view

In November we celebrate 10 years of The Yogaloft. We’ve taken time to look back and reflect on some of the amazing people we’ve met and the charities and events we’ve been fortunate enough to be able to support.
We are so grateful to all of our amazing members and teachers both past and present who have been part of our pretty awesome journey. Have you a story or experience to share ? Please please take a moment to share your thoughts, memories and experiences below.

World Menopause Day
This is my view as a 46 year old woman.
Sure isn’t there a day for everything now 🤣 First I acknowledge it can be really hard for some women, I fully support that many women will need HRT etc and if I need it I will take it, but I also feel like so much of what we see now either exploits women going through this stage of life (just look at the cost of a ‘menopause’ product vs a regular product, and it’s prob the same ingredients) or is all very negative, it almost sparks fear for many women.
I’d love your help to flip that a little, so let’s HELP eachother and spread a little HOPE!
PLEASE PLEASE Comment below.

Why are we moving to a new premises?
Sometimes you have to admit that you got it wrong, and that you could have done better. So I am apologising as back when I opened the Loft ten years ago and despite my own mum being in a wheelchair I truly didn’t understand just how much yoga / movement / meditation and breathwork could be adapted to suit everyone, my own experience of yoga naively led me to believe that if you could ‘Do Yoga’ you would ‘make it up the stairs’ how very wrong I was and how very sorry I am for my lack of awareness.
This building has been our home for 10 Years, in that time I’ve learnt so much, we’ve grown as a community and a studio. Actually opening the studio was literally the beginning, the start of our learning. While we’ve supported many many members of our community working within the building and within the community, we’ve also been inaccessible to many more. Whether that’s due to injuries or disability many folks have not been able to make it up our stairs and I really want to do better.
So for years I’ve been looking for a fully accessible space (and also looked to see if we could adapt the current buildings unfortunately it wasn’t possible) it’s actually really hard to find a space that’s the right size and also accessible … but finally we have found not just the space but also a very supportive landlord who is doing all possible to ensure our new space will be fully accessible and I will say that knowing what I know know I would never open up a space that wasn’t accessible.
This will be a new beginning for us and I truly hope that we can make our classes as accessible and inclusive as possible for everyone within our community, I’m open to all suggestions and feedback. It’s ok not to get it right all the time, it’s ok to make mistakes but it’s also important to learn and grow from those mistakes and I’m really trying hard to do that.
If any one had any questions about any of this ad always I’m up for a chat , just reach out 07890316954.

JUST YOGA
That’s what we do and we do it really really well.
No fussy stuff,
No performing,
No promises that we will ‘release your trauma’ ‘heal you’ ‘fix you’ no ‘mindless following’
No crazy nonsense is offered in our studio.
What do we do?
We share yoga with you in a way that allows you to better understand your body. That encourages you to be present, to notice and to feel. That hopefully helps you find a better balance within mind and body.
We hopefully make it easier for you to take your yoga off your mat so that it subtly shows up and supports you through your day to day life. In your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. Hopefully you’ll learn how to become a little stronger , a little more mobile, a little more calm… everyone is different so everyone gets different benefits
It all happens in a supportive, welcoming environment.
If you’d like to learn a little more about what we do and find the class that would best suit you, then please reach out .

Simplicity, let’s get back to it.
Simple. Straightforward. Attentive.
Life can be busy, maybe even chaotic, the more we try to cram in, the more we try to do, the less focused we may become on each task. Even within the wellness world it often feels like we need more .. to be entertained, to be distracted, to be performed to. It’s not enough to simply do yoga, it’s not enough for you to have and be present with your own experience, it’s got to have a hook, an add on,a distraction, something trendy or different, it’s got to be more. (These are just thoughts and if you love these things that’s absolutely ok)
Take for example a Soundbath on the Beach. The beach is literally natures ultimate sound bath, to lay back, to just listen is such an experience; do we need to add to that? For me it’s like going to the concert of a performer you love but wearing earphones and listening to cover versions of the songs you so love.
Puppy/Goat Yoga, you’re not doing yoga or fully enjoying the puppies. Maybe do some yoga then go cuddle some puppies, enjoy both things fully but separately.
Yoga with weights. You’re not getting to fully focus on the yoga and in terms of weights, what you’re doing with them, is it really going to create any significant strength benefits.. enjoy your yoga, then enjoy doing weights.
We are all different and we can all absolutely enjoy different things and that’s great, and we can all have different opinions and that too is perfect . Though it can be good at times to pause and notice: is what I’m doing creating more connection for me or is it creating a little more chaos and disconnection? Why does it always have to be more , why might we struggle so much with a simple approach, what is it that we need to be distracted from, what is it that we are not able to just sit with?

Slow Down,
Slow Down and notice,
Slow Down and feel,
Slow Down and see, really see,
Slow Down to be present,
How often do you take time to truly be present,
To give one task your attention,
To give one person your full attention ,
To give yourself your full attention?
How much better might it feel if you allowed yourself to slow down a little
Because of my injury I’ve had to slow my walking and movement right down, due to slowing down and not being able to move as quickly I’ve had more time to notice things.. during our recent retreat I slowed right down and I saw and noticed do much more .. this was just after rainfall and I thought this was stunning
