Happy first day of Spring... what a lovely thought that is 😃

Nothing is permanent and change is inevitable... so I've made a change to my online yoga timetable... maybe now is the time to join our lovely community of online yogis?

Everyone is welcome at these sessions, and it's a lovely way to practice, from the comfort of your own home.

💚 Mondays - 7pm Yin
💚 Tuesdays - 6:30am - Sunrise Flow
💚 Thursdays - 7am Sunrise Flow

Pricing is £5 a week for all three live classes with me, plus you also get recordings of these to access for as long as you're a member!

Give me a shout if you've got any questions 😍

I'm here to help & serve

Wishing you lots of springtime love

Just so you know what I'm up to these days :-)

That's a wrap for this week :-)

I absolutely love teaching online. I never thought I'd say that!

For 8 years I shied away from the camera but since covid came along, and Zoom became a thing of the norm, I've been online.

I've now got a catalogue of over 200 full practice videos (!!)

I love seeing everyone - chatting before practice & after and I love the post yoga sweaty faces :-)

I feel honoured that I get a peek inside someone's living room, or bedroom, or hallway or kitchen. And I'm always blown away by how little room people need to roll out their mat and practice yoga.

I'm always filled with joy to see the children or pets getting involved.

At the end of practice today, somebody mentioned it was exactly a year ago today that they first came to Blooming Bamboo and took their first ever yoga class. He has stayed with Blooming Bamboo throughout the pandemic, turning up several times a week to practice and in summer came along to our outdoor yoga. It's an honour to help people on their yoga journey. And this makes me feel so much joy and immense gratitude for what I do for a living.

Today I'm feeling the yoga love and above all feeling super grateful that we've been able to maintain connection throughout this pandemic.

I simply can't imagine life without technology. Can you?

I'm grateful for technology... in particular electricity, telephones, mobile phones, computers, internet, facebook, instagram, whatsapp, zoom, google, wordpress...to name a few things!!

One day we'll be back in person for sure, but until then are you keeping your practice up?

I would LOVE you to join me...
At least 5 classes a week - live online via Zoom
Recordings uploaded to the website - currently over 200 to choose from!
Brand new meditation class starts next Monday
And a whole lot of love from the best yoga community on the planet :-)

All this for just £5 a week
Absolute BARGAIN!!

Just letting you know about the online yoga classes I'm holding... as I've added a couple of extra classes each week while we're on lockdown.
xx

For the duration of lockdown I've made our online yoga offering even bigger...

More classes on the timetable and more variety.

Still only £5 a week for all of the live zoom classes plus access to every class ever recorded since March!

Over the summer I became a Certified Breath Coach...

Next Monday is the start of my 21 Day Online Course designed to help you influence your mood, energy & hormonal states using just the breath.

It hasn't really occurred to me to post on this page as all my work is based in the north east these days... but online means anyone from anywhere can join in the fun :-)

Here's the link in case you're interested to know more.

As a yogi, I will always be a student first and foremost. I love learning. And I love sharing what I’ve learnt with others. Over lockdown I’ve been keeping myself busy by becoming a Certified Breath Coach as well as as becoming certified to teach a protocol for referred NHS patients. It was the ...

💓 Just a quick check-in to let you know that I'm now fully set up in Seaham, County Durham :-) 💓

Although a piece of my heart will always be in London, the north east has always been HOME. And it's great to be back.

Blooming Bamboo Wellness Centre opened 2 weeks ago and it's going great so far.

Here's this week's highlighted classes..
- Pregnancy Yoga - Monday 6:45pm
- Dynamic Yoga - Mondays 6:30pm
- Postnatal Yoga - Tuesday 10am
- Yin Yoga - Tuesday 11:45am

+++ PLUS
Brand new beginners courses in Dynamic Yoga. For those who want a workout but have never done yoga before.

💥💥This week I'm running a yoga workshop on how to use yoga, meditation & pranayama to combat SAD. I've suffered with this for years and as it affects around 20% of us it seemed appropriate to share the tools that I personally use to help me through the winter. 💥💥

I'd love to welcome you to my gorgeous new studio. Look out for retreats too... I'm right by the sea and we have a gorgeous 13 mile coastal walk that I'm just dying to try!

I'd love it if you would hop on over to my new business page and give it a like 🙏

I've really missed teaching yoga!

After a few weeks off I'm super excited to be slowly reintegrating myself back to yoga over the next couple of weeks.

Here's a little post I wrote while I was off...

Hope to see you on a mat really soon :-)

I love teaching early morning yoga.

The mornings are getting lighter, I often see the sunrise, tubes & roads are less busy. But most importantly it sets us up for the day. Whatever else the day throws at us, it's ok! Because we've already had our yoga practice and we feel good.
