The Spacious Practice
Duration: 100 minutes

An invitation to slow down and settle into an expansive yoga experience. With the luxury of extra time, this extended practice allows you to explore each posture more deeply, rest in the spaces between, and gently touch on aspects of the eight limbs of yoga you may not have experienced before.

This class is designed to feel unhurried and nourishing—supporting both body and mind through a balanced, thoughtfully paced sequence.

You can expect:

🌍A gradual, grounding warm-up
💫Pranayama (breathwork) to centre and steady
🌊A flowing Vinyasa sequence
✨Restorative holds to soften and release
😴An extended savasana with guided relaxation
🧘‍♀️Meditation to close
🐌A slow and unhurried finish

You’ll leave feeling spacious in the mind, worked in the body, and grounded as you step back into your day.

and that’s a wrap!

For fear of often repeating myself on my Goan reflections I’ll keep this brief.

I land into London today with the tank of spiritual essence and grounded feet nicely topped up. Its sunny, Spring like and mild here too! Grateful for that.

A few thing the trip consisted of;
new faces over dinner ✨
a yogi friendship that further bonded over 40th birthdays and turtles 🥂🐢🫶
the many faces of friendships that have stood the test of time 🩷
yoga 🧘‍♀️
chats that covered the silly to the not so silly
quietness & solitude
3 touch down sunsets 🌅
two occasions seeing massive turtles 🐢; agonda beach is a conservation area for them.
one we saw give birth - UNREAL !!
One of which pootled off back to the ocean, the dogs and swarms of people were understandably doing its head in

Got a glimpse of the first ever hotel to be built in Agonda many decades ago. It now stands up on a hillside still clearly showing its Indo-Portuguese characteristics, but now dilapidated and derelict. A little creepy. 😬

I am forever grateful for the various components that make these trips possible - My job🙏 . My partner 🩷. My friends & fam who look after Blue 💙 . Um, and my sleeping aids that knock me out on the flights and calm my nerves. (I’m an anxious flyer) 🫠

As the world breaks into further chaos with more innocent lives being lost, more war, more hate, more division and fu**ed up leaders we must not give up on hope, humanity, justice, equality, love and peace.

reflections on yesterday

a three hour mint tea and cake with a very old friend and once client who I used to sell to many years ago. We sat overlooking the water in Southwold and covered some big topics, quite unexpectedly so. It was a conversation that weaved from blues bands, kids, retail, ideas, creativity within communities, the government, school curriculum, humanity and its future.

I used to pack my bag of samples and drive to his successful handful of stores some 20 years ago. It was a reminder how much of life and its enrichment, and success, is built on relationships.

AI is amazing and has transformed the way we live and can help many people in their needs, but human emotion, consciousness and interaction can never be replaced in its value and power.

I then managed to get myself into a local yoga class here in Suffolk and finally got to meet a fellow insta yogi. It was wonderful to get on the mat and be guided again (after 10 days of self practice and no classes) and share energy with new people, all of whom greeted me into their regular cosy space with smiles. Thank you 🫶

old and new ~ perfectly paired for an unexpected beautiful day.

See you grey soon, yogis. x

a week later I’m finally round to writing a few notes on last weeks Yoga for Peace.

community, love, vulnerability, trust, tears, smiles, connection, hope, loss, vibration are some of the words that come to mind when I reflect on last weeks gathering for our workshop.

being able to offer this practice to the intention and cause for peace, action and awareness is deeply humbling, and meaningful.

people showed up for the community that is beyond their immediate, dedicating thought and energy towards others - not the self. isn’t that exactly what we are here to do, on this earth? recognising that community is something that stretches beyond our familiars.

we raised £780 which is incredible. We only held space for 11 spots and the donations that came from the people supporting the cause but couldn’t make the workshop were extremely generous and appreciated. Thank you 🤍

in the last week the news has continued to shock and devastate me. The Bondi shootings were horrific! The hero’s that reacted to protect and disarm were fearless.

we must dare to dream and hope that peace will weave its way through the worlds multiple divisions. we must not give up hoping, acting and speaking up for the fellow humans that are in need of justice and equality.

stay tuned for further collaborating with me and the soulful … Yoga for Peace will return in 2026 …

….as will a weekend retreat…. Ooh la la 🫶👯‍♀️

Big shout to 🤍🤍🤍

on the drive back from Canacona, South Goa, to the airport (around 1 hour 40) I wrote this post in my head. Running through the stories of this trip, and now I’m not sure I’ll get to it., not in its fullness at least. Posting seems quite the chore at times.

What I will say is that I enjoyed slow days, very low alcohol consumption, daily physical yoga, daily theory / learning on anatomy and philosophy and bitesize conversations with new and old faces.

I could tell you all about the array of characters I came across, from the minute I landed to the bus I just got off that took me from T1 to T2 in Mumbai. Sally-who had been coming for 40 years and was leaving for good due to North Goa being sadly unrecognisable now. She used to work in the music industry in London many years ago and has since been a wanderer seeing rugged landscapes, and has no base but had a strong contentment in vibe. She said fu* #, a lot. I liked her.

One of the first people I met happened to live 2 streets down from me in London. I do hope he finds the right side of Goa and achieves the changes he is seeking. You can do it, Baxter. 💪🏼

And about the newly together couple I had dinner with, quite a story. She may even come to my workshop. He is now on a solo led mission across the world seeking the truth serums of the world. Good luck, Dave 🙏

And then there are the familiars, the wonderful souls that are part of the tapestry that is South Goa, and its essence to me and my experience, every time . ❤️

I got through 4 books. None of which were highbrow so I won’t share those - but they permitted a light escapism and welcomed indulgence. I tend to doom scroll at home and get heavy shouldered with the world’s ongoing devastations.

As usual I fed the cats and dogs. The dogs seemed to prefer the cat food and the cats never seemed quite satisfied with the portions…

See you this week, folks. I’ve missed teaching and can’t wait to see you all.

H E L L O 47 !!

striding semi comfortably into my 50s, navigating the changes of the 40s
reflecting on the ups & downs in the 30s
loving the memories of the chaotic 20s

here’s to living the life that is ours

recognising the utter privilege it is to age in a world that seems so disposing of human life and its worth and value

thanks for all the love 🩷
