You do not need a new year resolution or some goal for 2026 because you are perfectly fine just as you are!
But first happy new year !
May 2026 bring everything you need, wish, deserve. May 2026 give you strength to continue, courage to stop and most of all love and friendship to share.

And if like me you have indulged in mince pies, panettone, chocolate, cakes and more, good for you!!
Having said that, today I feel quite heavy and feel the need to exercise, “detox”, get back to my healthy routine.
And guess what I will be doing quite extensively and intensely….?
Yoga of course!
If you wish to join me this term, or just for one session, all classes resume from this Sunday, 4th January.
Soft and slow on Sundays to relax and let go at 6pm in Muswell Hill.
Fast (ish) and cardio on Mondays (zoom), Tuesdays and Thursdays to get the body in movement in Crouch end.
Strengthening, balancing and stretching in a mindful way on Wednesdays to feel strong and alive. In Muswell Hill.
The schedule is on my website. You can book directly or contact me if you are not quite sure what to do or have any question.
Make 2026 the year you look after yourself!
Don’t be afraid to put yourself first sometimes.
Your old self and your family and friends will thank you for it.

And it’s a wrap for my classes in 2025. Thank you so much to those beautiful studios for letting me teach there. I am glad to be continuing our collaboration in the future. .bymargot , , .house. But most of all, thank you to YOU, my beautiful friends, clients, students, participants (not entirely sure how to call you! 😅), for your fidelity, your trust, your love! The first half of 2025 was not easy but the second half was full of hopes and promises. I kept going because you kept showing up! So thank you. I wish you all a very happy Christmas, Hannukha or festive season. 🎄💜🎄

A new class on Tuesdays at 7pm? A class to move, strengthen, stretch, feel good and enjoy. A small class, personalised, where you will be seen and looked at (by me!), so I can offer what you need. The first one will be on Tuesday 9th December at 7pm, in the lovely studio .bymargot specialised in women in Crouch End. And hopefully the class will continue in the new year, so you can continue your journey with me to health and growing older happily.

Kindness calendar instead of, or in addition to, the traditional chocolate advent calendar? Let’s give and be kind… instead of take and be greedy…? Just some food for thoughts on this 1st December…. Let’s try to practice Aparigraha, non possessiveness, non greed… we’ll be talking about it tomorrow and Wednesday in the Teen yoga classes that’s for sure!

28/11/2025

This Black Friday I have… nothing to offer! Except my usual classes and workshops, small, personalised, carefully prepared with in mind the real people coming to see me. Some real connection between real people. Independant yoga teachers and businesses may be more expensive than the gyms round the corner, the big corporations but the care and attention are not the same. We know YOU, we look after YOU. So please this Friday and until Christmas, instead of buying loads made by children on the other side of the world, think people, think local, think experiences to live and connect instead of stuff!! Happy Friday, and I hope it is full of colours, happiness and friendships.

What does Yoga bring me that Zumba, Spin or even Pilates do not? How different is yoga from these above activities and others?
I sometimes wonder that while teaching a class, usually mainly physical.
Elliot was in London this weekend and I felt so happy and serene and calm.
At this stage you are probably wondering why I am telling you this and what is the relation between one thing and the other..
Well he went back to his life this morning and when he leaves, there is always that sense of deflation. A deep sadness, like I am being torn apart and some regrets too…
I usually feel like curling up in bed, sleep and eat lots of chocolate… (I did a full clean of the house instead!!!)
But yoga has taught me to observe first my body and its sensations. And then over the years to observe and notice my thoughts, my feelings. To recognise the patterns and that they are not me and I am not them. Yoga has taught me that these feelings, good or bad, will pass. I observe, I do not judge, I do not comment. It is what it is. It reminds myself to be gentle and have empathy, patience toward me.
Yoga is not just a physical activity. Even if you “only” practice postural yoga you learn to know yourself better, you learn to notice without judgement, you learn to let go and surrender to whatever comes at you, so you can bounce back, continue. Noticing, accepting and then acting when necessary.
Yoga on the mat is an activity that helps you live out of the mat. In most cases.

Is yin yoga bad for you? The little world of yin Yoga has been in a bit of a turmoil lately because a very well-known teacher, who I follow on here and really like, has said that she stopped practising yin yoga because she feels it is not safe. I will not state here all her reasons.
And there have been at least a couple of other very well regarded teachers who have demonstrated otherwise.
I think that debate illustrates quite well what happens in Yoga and probably in many other activities. Some say it’s good, some say it’s bad. There will be research showing why it’s good, there will be research saying why it’s bad. Yoga is about experimenting in your body, first hand, what feels good and what does not feel good. And then make an informed decision.
I love yin Yoga. I fell in love with this practice a long time ago. I have always loved holding postures for quite a long time, even the standing one, feeling and noticing the changes, the shifts in my body.
I have always preferred it to the fast ashtanga / vinyasa pace.
I feel it is nearly a sterile debate where no one is right or wrong. Because as I said earlier, in yoga you need to experiment how it feels in your body and decide if it’s for you or not. There will be days when it’s for you, there will be days when it is not.
The important thing is, as always to listen to your body with compassion and empathy and to know when to stop, to make sure you’re not trying to over do it because the person on the mat next to you can reach their toes without any effort, or so it seems, or because in your head you should be able to do a posture a certain way.
Listening, observing, compassion, empathy… those are words that go well with Yin.
So if you want to experiment and see for yourself if it’s for you … you can join me every Sunday at 6pm in Muswell Hill.

If you don’t have time to practice regularly during the week, why don’t you join me this Saturday for a 2 hour workshop combining a strong (ish) Hatha with a soft yin?
An hour to strengthen and exercise, an hour to soften and relax.
And some time at the end, if you want to, to chat, share, exchange and get back to your life feeling like a nearly new person 😘.

This Saturday, from 5 to 7pm in the Oakforrest house, Summerland gardens, Muswell Hill.
Parking is easy as there is the M&S car park, you can also come by bus and it leaves you 2mn from the place.

Comment below or private message if you have any questions or wish to book.
£30 to feel new, refreshed and relaxed !!

I am raising my joy. Increasing my happiness. During the last day-retreat I organised in Hatfield, we made a list of those things that make us happy, those people, places, experiences that bring joy in our lives.

For me it’s practising Yoga and learning about it. It is also spending time in France with my mum and my family, spending time with my friends.
So this week this is what I am doing : practising yoga every day, taking classes, learning something about it every day. Spending some time with my mum, taking her here and there, chatting with her sitting by the fire, watching crap TV and literary programs, with a 🐈‍⬛ on my lap.
And from tomorrow, I will be having fun with three of my friends, who I have known since my time in Madrid back in the 90s! Chatting, reminiscing, eating, probably a glass or two of wine, walking by the sea, enjoying being together.
Having a lovely time.

And you, what do you do to raise joy in your life? How do you look after yourself?
Comment below, and remember that it is not indulgence but a necessity. Because life is too short and it is important to seize the day!
Carpe Diem!

Yin yoga and yoga nidra in the heart of Muswell Hill, on Sunday evenings from 6 to 7:15pm. A small, gentle, slow class, open to any level of fitness. Just come as you are, leave feeling rested, stretched, relaxed, ready to take on the week ahead. Every week has a theme, we set an intention, reflect upon it while gently working the body and slowing down the mind. No experience needed. Just wanting some ME time. And a beautiful sense of community.

Are you looking after yourself? How is your diet? Are you eating healthily? How about regular check-ups? Specially after 50… , blood pressure, bone density, cervical screaming and mammograms… There is so much to do isn’t there?! How about your mental health? Are you taking some regular time off? Having some Me Time, some time to do nothing, let yourself be carried and held… ? This is what I offer in my classes and my retreats, a space for women to look after themselves, listen to their bodies and be listened to and looked after. My time table on the pictures and the day retreat this Saturday. And for good measure, to try to beat the algorithm 😂😂, a picture of myself.
