Group Yoga classes for Beginners & Improvers, Yoga Nidra, Chair Yoga, Yin Yoga and 1:1 sessions I remain forever a student and love learning.
Hi, I'm Sarah and I offer a whole range of in-person and online Yoga classes. I know all too well, how the pace of modern life can impact our health and wellbeing. That’s why I am so passionate about creating space and opportunity within my classes for you to slow down and connect back to yourself… physically, mentally and spiritually. I spent many years teaching in secondary schools, training hard and running a Taekwon-Do club with my husband, until, in my late-thirties I realised I was living in an unsustainable way. My big wake up call was being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2013. Like many people, the majority of whom are women, I found myself with an autoimmune disease diagnosis. This caused me to look at how I was living and make some changes. I had already discovered yoga and meditation, and these were a great help to me in coming to terms with my diagnosis and implementing positive lifestyle changes. Gradually, I took steps towards living a more nourishing and present lifestyle. Fortunately, I have remained fit and well and hope to maintain this. In 2015, after having my son, I resigned from teaching in schools and re-trained to teach yoga. I have been teaching weekly yoga classes in Kinver and Stourton, near Stourbridge, ever since. I have completed further trainings in Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Children’s Yoga, Yoga for Perimenopause and Chair Yoga, amongst other things, and I am always reading and developing my own knowledge for everyone that comes to my classes. I have a special interest in how yoga can be of benefit to women as they move through all life stages and I know that it will help me and many others to stay grounded, connected and more mindful. I look forward to sharing yoga with you and I would love to see you at a class soon.

✨💜 With Mother's Day coming up in a few weeks, now is the time to start thinking about how you can treat the special mother-figure in your life ✨💜
If she's into yoga, or curious about starting, why not buy a gift voucher?
These can be purchased via my booking system and used against classes and special events with me.
There are some lovely events coming up, such as a full-day Yoga and Mindful Craft retreat on Satuday 25th April and a shorter Spring Workshop on Tuesday 31st March 7-9pm.
A gentle return to teaching this morning after a few days off.
I celebrated my birthday this week, 48 journeys around the sun ☺️
As I get older I’m learning to listen more to what I need… I had a few days off and we had planned to whizz around and squeeze in some visits and sightseeing, but I just wasn’t feeling it. You know when you’re tired and just want to be at home, tucked up, warm and comfy? So, we didn’t venture far, no grand explorations- they can wait for another time. We did go snowdrop hunting though 🤍
I’ve got a couple more classes this week and then new terms start next week. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone.

Spring invites us to draw inspiration from the rising energy in nature, to move the body, connect with the breath, and discover our creativity.
You are warmly invited to join Sarah and Marie for a day of Yoga and Mindful Craft on Saturday, 25th April. This is a day to be guided, nurtured and encouraged to discover your playful, joyful and creative self. We’ll share movement practices, craft and storytelling. If you are looking for space to do something just for you, this is the relaxing day you have been waiting for!
Sarah will lead you through a morning of carefully selected yoga practices, including Asana (poses), Pranayama (breathwork practices), Mudra, and guided relaxation.
In the afternoon, Marie will guide you through a mindful spring craft inspired by the mythical, mysterious, shape-shifting hare.
📍Where: Church House, Stourport-on-Severn
⏰ When: 9:30 am- 4:30 pm, Saturday 25th April 2026

I’m still teaching this Thursday in the Wyre Forest.
It may be grey and muddy out, the rain might persist… but there’s always yoga and birdsong 🎶

During half-term week, I am running a reduced timetable of classes.
I'm taking some time off to spend with family and celebrate my birthday ♥

2026 is the National Year of Reading
I’m sharing a couple of books that I enjoyed in January.
Hekate was just a beautiful read and I loved how the godling found her power and evolved 🖤 Definitely going to check out more from this writer.
Hyper mobility on the Yoga Mat had been on my shelf for quite a while and I hadn’t got around to starting it. I haven’t quite finished, but there’s so much great information in this. It will definitely help inform my planning 💜
What did you read in January? Any recommendations?

Join me for an extended spring yoga workshop that will bring balance to mind and body. I am combining both Tuesday evening classes for this event, and I would love it if as many of you could join me as possible.
Inspired by the spring, we’ll gently energise the body through breath work, mudra, and a flow sequence for all levels. We will weave in a few longer-held poses before moving on to a restorative guided relaxation.
We will do a 90-minute practice, followed by refreshments and chat.
The cost of this workshop is £15.
Our venue is Stourton Village Hall, DY76RT.

In my chair yoga class today, we incorporated Cook’s Hook Up technique. This involves crossing the ankles and wrists, interlacing the fingers, and focusing on the breath.
It can be a great way to bring your mind and body back into balance. It helps engage both sides of the brain, settles the nervous system, and creates a sense of focus.
This led to a discussion after class about nursery rhymes and finger games that we might have played as children. I could remember one, but this one was new to me. Do you know it? Can you remember the words?
Bit of awe-hunting after class too: a tree stump with a flower-pattern and the patch of snowdrops I noticed by accident last week. They’re tucked away behind my venue 😍

My next online Yoga Nidra session is on Sunday, 22nd February at 8pm.
The world has been a lot lately.

All of you is welcome here.
Lie down, get comfortable and simply listen. There is nowhere to go... nothing to do... except be here now...
The session costs £6.50.
You can join me live or catch the recording. The recording will be available for 1 month.

I’m in the Bewdley Bridge local magazine. Have you seen it?

2026 is the National Year of Reading.
Fewer people are making the time to read as life becomes ever busier and we become more attached to our phones and other technology. The campaign aims to tackle the decline in reading for pleasure.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve had a little challenge going on with myself to read more than the previous year. As a child I always had my head in a book and my degree was in German and English Literature. Reading was a way of life! So, this January I reset the total to 0 and made a new start.
I thought I’d share (one of) my yoga-related bookshelves and two books that I received for Christmas from some of my lovely class attendees. Both are beautiful and I will definitely be taking class inspiration from the almanac throughout the year!
I’d love to know, what’s on your reading list this January? Any recommendations?

Hi, I’m Sarah and I am passionate about teaching, yoga, health and well-being. I love sharing yoga with adults, children and families as a way of helping people connect to themselves and to others. I enjoy teaching people to work with the body they have and hope to give them the tools to develop a calmer approach to life off the mat.
My classes are suitable for those new to yoga and/or those new to the Sun Power style.
Sun Power Yoga is a mix of 3 styles:
- Dynamic Hatha for alignment
- Sivananda Yoga for subtle mind and breath work
- Astanga Vinyasa for heat, flexibility and stamina
Classes begin with a short relaxation to quieten the mind and prepare the body. Pranayama (breathing exercises) cleanse and balance, before moving on to carefully selected Asanas (postures) that will gradually warm up the body, strengthening and lengthening the muscles, improving balance, stamina and posture. Classes conclude with a longer, full body relaxation and meditation.
A class is a chance to step away from the stresses and strains of daily life, bring your attention to the present and focus on your well-being.
All equipment is provided, but you are welcome to bring your own mats, blocks, straps etc. if you have them.
As well as these adult classes, I teach children’s yoga in schools and in school holidays. I hope I can encourage children to be proud of their bodies, move confidently, develop skills for self-regulation and, most importantly, have fun!
I also run monthly family yoga sessions, which are very lighthearted and I love seeing families connect in these sessions.
If you’re not sure about attending a general class, I also offer 1:1 sessions: maybe you’re concerned because you have an injury, illness, or physical disability, or maybe you lack the confidence to join a class straight away. Whatever your reason for preferring a 1:1, please get in contact to discuss the availability of these sessions.
It would be great to see you on the mats soon, Sarah x
