JUST A REMINDER...

no class this week. See you all next week, 6.30pm Wednesday 21st Aug. :)

*** CLASS CHANGE ***

For the past year, I have been trialling term-time-only classes, and gradually, I have begun to re-appreciate the regularity and comfort a shared practice space brings.

On that note...

As of next week, 31st July, I will be moving to continuous classes (unless I am away as I am on August the 14th or something mad happens).

Classes will be held every Wednesday 6.30-8 pm, £10 drop-in (cash on the day please) at the Waterside cafe / food bistro courtesy of the wonderful Magda and her crew.

Our space accommodates around 8 students so it is a small, friendly class that is community first. It won't be everyone's cup of tea, but if you'd like to see if it fits, then get in touch to try a class for FREE.

Contact me here or check out propernorthernyoga.com for more details.

See you on the mat.

So this is unexpectedly cool... I am officially a published author. I had no idea I'd receive this today!

Since working full time as an English teacher, I've felt increasingly disconnected from my yoga teaching journey of 2014 onwards. As a result, when asked me if I would like to be part of this beautiful series, I jumped at the opportunity.

Admittedly, I've been off social media as I come to terms with losing the studio and working out my next steps. It's been such a huge adjustment that has had so many positives amongst the sadness and disappointment. This book, however, feels like another new exciting pathway and just such an achievement. Thank you to

On another note, off the back of this book, I will be holding a few workshops at the wonderful this summer as part of the collective. I will be there with singing bowls and super chilled stretches to help you recharge your bestie batteries.

If you'd like your own copy, my book is now officially available on amazon.

I keep falling off the radar... simply because life is busy!

Potentially not so wisely, I took on writing a book "The Healing Power of Movement" (which will be published very soon) and beginning an MA alongside my full-time English teaching role and found myself sort of superwoman-ing.

It's all good, though, and the one thing that has kept me going is teaching the most wonderfully casual Hatha yoga class.

So, if you are looking to join a small, friendly, sometimes chatty yoga space, then check out the final term's classes—there are only four spaces left!

6 week pass £72 or full term for £120

Decluttering...

It's a long time since I'd say I actually felt as if I could practice. Or that I even wanted to.

My emotions were tied up to the loss of something huge I'd built and the economy of running a studio.

Yoga wasn't really yoga.

Today I feel lifted... shifting the final few weights clinging to my soul and decluttering the last few blocks on my energy.

It has been sad saying good bye to what I thought was my business but at least now I get to practice and create one beautifully fun class which I love to teach. So different.

On that note would anyone like this? Free of course.

A few years back when covid was raging through world and the studio had to close I managed to get out in one of those brief respite periods and capture this.

Life has changed so much since then. I went back into teaching and closed the studio permanently. At this point I was a blend of carefree and incredibly stressed. Doesn't seem it in the photo though.

Yoga is an anchor in challenging times. It can help you take a moment to breathe, to simply feel what's going on in the space around you.

You don't need to be any particular shape or size or flexibility to do it.

I now offer one small, friendly, comforting and gently challenging class a week through term time. Come join Wednesdays 6.30pm-8pm from tomorrow through to feb.

The first course is 6 weeks and you can still sign up for the block or if you fancy it join for the entire term until march. Check out the details at www.propernorthernyoga.com

Alternatively if you are unsure about comitting to the whole period why not book a single session or try our 3 sessions for £30 (valid for a six week period)

A bit belated, but hey who likes to do anything on time right?

Happy xmas to everyone and hope you have a fab new year!

On that note... I'll be restarting my wednesday class on the 3rd of Jan, 6.30pm Waterside Cafe (you technically support 2 small businesses by booking 😁). Straight back into it after the hols. Since downsizing from a fully stocked studio I've had the privilege to reconnect with my roots, smaller, friendlier community feeling classes. If that sounds like something you fancy joining then come along.

Please note booking has moved online and spaces are limited. You can book all 12 classes in the spring term for £108, a single half term of 6 weeks for £72 or £15 drop in.

Each class is 90 mins of supple strengthening, relaxation and sound bowls. The class is suitable for all body types and everyone is more than welcome. If you have any worries or queries just drop me a message.

Embracing Winter's Calm: A Grounding Yoga Practice with Compassion Meditation - https://mailchi.mp/4f5c0965aa8c/embracing-winters-calm-a-grounding-yoga-practice-with-compassion-meditation

***AUTUMN CLASSES- 1st NOVEMBER- 13th DECEMBER 2023***

Join me for another 7 weeks of sumptuous yoga classes, 90 minutes of slightly spicy and super yummy bliss.

We will work on softening our warriors, revolving our side angles and maybe even bringing in a crow! To complement our strengthening, we will be spending a proportion of each session melting into the massaging sensations of yin and somatic awareness practices.

Suitable for beginners to advanced. There will always be something new to learn.

After spending a week bobbing about anglesey and festivalling I am feeling super restored (if a little post madness snotty) and ready for some lovely class energy this autumn.

This term is going to be a mainly floor based, core strengthening flow to bring us back to those subtley strong bodies we had before our summer of revelling! We are working towards chakrasana or wheel pose and variations on downward dog, maybe even throwing in a little wild thing...

We have a really good number of students this term, some new faces, some returners and some proper blasts from the past. Its going to be awesome. If you are still looking to catch a place on the course or even sign up for whole term check out www.propernorthernyoga.com and head to our classes page to see what's on offer.

Classes are Wednesdays 6.30pm till 8pm, Waterside cafe / food bistro Kendal starting from the 6th September for 7 weeks. £15 drop in/£84 course block

There is nothing like a 7 mile walk to clear the cobwebs.

This summer I've been an ant, prepping hard for winter. This goes against all my hedonistic vibes to just do me however it is a trait I can bring out when I feel settled and focussed enough.

Sometimes you just feel like more you, right?

After years of losing my footing, regaining it, losing it again I am finally on even ground for the moment. It's a beautiful feeling to return back to those things we once loved and enjoyed but maybe lost along the way.

It's taken a lot of editing and reassessing, removing things I love but were harming me, working out my sense of self, giving up on over ambitious ideas and finding different paths to follow (possibly just as ambitious but maybe more achieveable).

I am so privileged to be able to do this, especially in a world where everything can go so wrong. Where people are losing their lives, their homes and their freedoms. Change happens every moment. I often dwell on this, but in the dwelling I need to recognise and appreciate my circumstances and accept the happy where I can.

So here's to 7 mile walks to remember we're alive, glorious sunsets when we catch them, crafying meals to make our mouths water and loving our four legged furry friends who love us back unconditionally.

If you'd like to find some space to reground then who knows, my autumn series may help.. check out the details for the last few spaces at www.propernorthernyoga.com

See you on the mat!
