Reviews from previous evenings:
"What an amazing evening! The yoga was just right for connecting with my body exactly as it is right now, I felt energised and grounded afterwards. Then came delicious tea and warming snacks, and a lavender pillow for my eyes. The sound bath was beautiful, initially noticing how the different sounds resonate inside of me, feeling more and more relaxed and centred as I drifted deeper into the sounds. The whole weekend afterwards I felt relaxed and fully at home in myself. Thanks for the kind and generous space you created, and for leading us through the evening so gracefully. James"

I’ve been so impressed with Pauline’s restorative yoga sessions. Last week I came in with a stubborn headache, and through her calm pacing and the final legs‑up‑the‑wall pose, the pain finally eased.
This week we started on our tummy with slow, nurturing movements, and Pauline was attentive to everyone’s needs, offering alternative options for those with joint issues. Her teaching creates a space that feels both restorative and empowering. I always leave feeling more grounded and at ease. Janice"

"The restorative sessions on a Friday have been such a wonderful blessing that ease me from my week into my weekend. I like to run during the week and it just seems like a gift to have this time to stretch and release all and any tension in my muscles. And then the sound healing sessions have been an even greater blessing at the end of the month. Friday’s class was a beautiful transition from Winter to Spring and I loved the Tibetan bowls. They are much more gentle than the crystal bowls but I still felt cleansed and so much lighter emotionally. Thank you for sharing these gifts with us all. Ali"

"Thank you so much for hosting such a beautiful restorative yoga and Tibetan sound healing evening. I really enjoyed the whole experience, the session felt deeply calming, grounding, and thoughtfully guided. The sound healing afterwards was especially soothing, and I slept incredibly well that night. The atmosphere you created was warm and welcoming, and the homemade cookies were such a lovely touch. I left feeling relaxed, restored, and very grateful for the care you put into the event. Thank you again for a wonderful evening. Best wishes, Janice"
