RHYTHMS OF REST 🌀🦋🐛

A journey into presence, calm, and higher consciousness.

A nourishing practice followed by Yoga Nidra for deep healing.

Join me for a slow movement-based practice to reset and restore with meditation, followed by Yoga Nidra for deep healing. An invitation to pause, breathe, and realign with your natural state of ease. This 2-hour session invites you to explore your relationship with breath and how it shapes your mind and body. In our fast-paced world, many of us have forgotten how to breathe fully this practice offers simple yet powerful tools to reconnect. No need for flexibility, just a body willing to breathe. Expect breath-led movement, guided Yoga Nidra for deep rest, and practical techniques to integrate into daily life. Held in a warm, cosy studio, with a cup of tea to ground us, this is a space to slow down, reset, and restore.

Mats can be provided too. £15 with a cuppa ☕️

Any questions don’t hesitate to reach out ✨

Yoga & Brunch ✨

I’m so excited to be back at the beautiful village farm next year every 2nd Saturday of the month for yoga & brunch!

The first one is next Saturday 11th or January 8-10am.

I know I haven’t had much time to promote this and I appreciate its the first weekend in January! As a gift I would like to offer £5 off this session as I know how hard it is this time of year and especially 8am on a Saturday!

The next 3 brunches for your diaries with Kate are:

Saturday 11th of January - only £15 🫶🏻
Saturday 8th of February
Saturday 12th of March

This practice will be a slow flow, traditional style of practice; steeped in Hatha, we’ll use the body to move through certain postures supported by a range of breathing techniques that lead us to the ultimate practice of meditation.

Everyone is welcome, this is a non competitive style of practice taught from the heart. It can transform your life in so many ways.

To book please call or message or email hello@villagefarmdevon.com or call 01548 843532

Join Kate for a special 2-hour Mandala Vinyasa yoga class, followed by refreshing matcha and a slice of banana bread! ✨🙌🍌

Taking place at the newly opened Wellness Warrior Yoga Studio in Modbury, the session will begin at 9 am. We will start with 30 minutes of yin, followed by 30 minutes of Mandala sequencing, 30 minutes of standing sequence, and conclude with 30 minutes of seated sequence, yin, and meditation.

It’s a beautiful expressive practice with a systematic approach to moving energy through the body, culminating in a deep restful place after class.

After the class, Becky and Laura will serve delicious matcha, either hot or cold, alongside a slice of banana bread. This will also be an opportunity to reflect on the practice and have a chat.

In 2023, Kate trained with Dulce Aguilar, the founder of the Mandala Vinyasa Method, in Goa, India, where she completed 100 hours of training in Mandala and Shamanism. The method comprises four routines, each representing an element and its specific energetic activation. We move around the mat 360° through asanas, which fosters a greater connection with the elements and a deeper sense of self through the constant synchronisation of movement and breath.

Based on the Mayan calendar, we will select one element to explore on Saturday, 5th October.
