✨ A little January joy to share… ✨

As we move towards the close of the year, I’ve been reflecting on just how grateful I am for each of you and for the community we’ve grown together. Teaching you has been one of the true joys of my year.

So this Christmas, instead of wrapping paper and ribbons, my gift to you is more space to practise.

From January, our weekly timetable is expanding — and with that comes something I’m really excited to share…

🤍 Please welcome three newly qualified trainee teachers to the schedule 🤍 Victoria, Jenn and Doireann 💜

They’ve trained with such dedication, curiosity, and heart, and I’m beyond happy to be welcoming them into my teaching team. From January, they’ll be offering classes across the week, helping us create more choice, flexibility, and consistency for everyone.

✨ What’s changing from January?
• Classes in Harpenden 7 days a week
• Two classes every Wednesday
• A brand-new timetable

I can’t wait for you to meet these wonderful teachers, practise with them, and feel the care and intention they bring to the space.

Thank you for being part of this community — and for growing it with me.

Blessings, Imogen

✨ 11 Incredible Humans. 11 Hours of Yoga Classes. 1 Epic Assessment Weekend. ✨

My heart is SO full. This weekend, our 11 amazing teacher trainees stepped into their power — teaching 11 hours of yoga with courage, authenticity, and so much heart. They DID IT. Not just completed it… they shone through it. 🌟

These brilliant new teachers are now going out into the world — into studios, into communities, maybe even into a space close to you — ready to guide, support, and help others flourish. I cannot wait to watch them grow, expand and thrive in everything they do. 💫

A huge and heartfelt thank you to every single person who has supported this journey:
🧡 My faculty team — you are the strongest foundations
🧡 Everyone working behind the scenes — you make magic happen
🧡 Gemma .exhale.yoga & Paula — our assessors this weekend, who gave such thoughtful, precise and empowering feedback
🧡 And to my wonderful life partner — thank you for holding me through these years of building something so dear to my heart 💛

If this sparks something in you… if you feel the call to teach and share the gift of yoga… 🕊️

✨ Yoga Teacher Training — The Teacher in You — 2026 ✨

✨ RELIEVE HOLIDAY OVERWHELM & BOOST ENERGY WITH KIDNEY 27 ✨

If you’re feeling run-down, anxious, or having trouble breathing deeply — try tapping into one of the body’s most powerful acupressure points: Kidney 27 🙌

📍 Where is it?
Right below your collarbone, in the soft spots on either side of your sternum.

💆‍♀️ How to activate it:
• Place your fingertips in those little hollows under the collarbones
• Apply gentle pressure or massage in small circles
• Breathe deeply for 30–60 seconds
• Repeat whenever you need a reset

🌿 Why it’s amazing:
• Helps clear chest congestion & improve breathing
• Reduces fatigue & boosts overall vitality
• Calms stress and anxiety
• Supports immune and adrenal function

You can tap, press, or massage — even do a few times a day. It’s a mini wellness ritual you can take anywhere ✨

💚 Save this for later & show your body some love!

🤸Flip the script: Rethinking the history, politics & philosophy of yoga.

For too long, the story of yoga has been told in a single, simplified voice. It’s time to turn that narrative upside down.

🙃 The multiple histories of yoga
Yoga doesn’t come from one origin story, one lineage, or one tidy philosophy. Its history unfolds across thousands of years through shifting physical, political and philosophical developments. Together, we’ll explore the texts, the gaps, the contradictions—and embrace the uncertainty that cracks open dogma and invites deeper curiosity.

☸️ The origins of chakras (and how they got rainbow-washed)
Think the ancient sages taught blocked energy points, colour wheels and “balancing your chakras”? Think again. We’ll trace how subtle body concepts evolved over centuries—and how the seven-colour chakra system became one of the most commercially appropriated symbols in modern yoga culture.

🧘‍♀️ The real age of asana
Saluting the sun has roots, yes—but the flowing vinyasa sequences filling today’s classes? Much more recent, and emerging from influences far outside what we’d call “traditional yoga.” Even the poses we treat as ancient—lunges, splits, backbends—have stories that might surprise you.

🙌 Was yoga taken or given? And why?
Yoga today is dominated by white, middle-class, able-bodied women. How did that demographic become the global face of yoga? And what does that mean for the communities historically connected to yoga who are often missing from contemporary spaces? We’ll unpack the politics of access, adoption and exclusion.

👨🏽‍⚖️Who decided we needed an International Yoga Day?
A day of global celebration—or a tool of soft power? We’ll look at how yoga became entangled with nationalism, diplomacy, and global image-building—and what that means for participation today.

Yoga’s story isn’t what you think—let’s invert the narrative.

If you want to learn all this and so much more, join us for our Embodied Yoga Teacher Training in 2026. We start in May.

Why I Don’t Offer Black Friday Deals ✖️🖤

Every year, Black Friday rolls in with the same pressure: slash your prices, compete for attention, push people to buy more.
But here’s the truth — I’m not here to feed a system that profits from urgency, overconsumption, and exploitation.

We live in a capitalist structure that convinces people to measure value by discounts, speed, and scarcity… while the global poor often pay the real price.
Cheap goods aren’t actually cheap — someone, somewhere is absorbing the cost through underpaid labor, unsafe working conditions, and environmental harm.

My work isn’t built on that model. I price my offerings in a way that honors my time, energy, and sustainability year-round — not only when the world expects a frenzy of markdowns.

If you choose to invest in my work, I want it to be because it truly supports you… not because a countdown timer pressured you into it.

Intentional purchases > impulse spending.
Ethics > hype.
Community > capitalism.

Thanks for being here, for valuing slow growth, and for supporting businesses that resist the cycle instead of feeding it. 🖤✨

Namastasya Namastasya Namastasya Namo Namaha ✨⁣
⁣
Big feels incoming… because this year the universe has given me one of the most incredible groups of humans I’ve ever had the honour to walk beside. ❤️⁣
⁣
These goddesses each stepped into this journey of training not only to learn how to teach yoga asana, but to forge a relationship to themselves more deeply — and that, to me, is the true heart of teaching.

Understanding the Self.
Sitting with your shadows.
Celebrating your revelations.
Allowing vulnerability to be a teacher of its own.⁣
⁣
And wow… they have shown up. Bright. Engaged. Courageous. Open. Every single day. It has been a joy, a privilege, and honestly a little bit magic.⁣
⁣
I can’t believe we’re already at the pinnacle point of this adventure — just assessments left to go. Eight months of growth, laughter, tears, breakthroughs, wobbling, rising, and blooming. My heart is so, so full.⁣
⁣
A huge thank you to my phenomenal co-faculty:

⁣
To my trainees — thank you for your true, wholehearted commitment to this training. For your trust and faith in the journey and for waiting for all the pieces of the jigsaw 🧩 puzzle! I cannot wait to see you step forward, to watch you grow, and to have you teach alongside me in the future. 🌿✨⁣
⁣
Here’s to transformation, community, and the brilliance you all carry within you.
