Saltwater Yoga

Saltwater Yoga I like yoga and sharing it with people. Free Yoga Nidra meditation if you sign up to my newsletter: I also love food, which is one of the reasons I surf so much

I am a yoga teacher and surf coach from the UK who has moved around quite a bit. I love to explore, and can currently be found playing in the Atlantic Ocean or teaching yoga in Portugal. The name Saltwater Yoga came about not because of proximity to, or immersion in the ocean but from the connection that I have with it and the feeling I get when I’m in or near the sea. The sea has been a great teacher to me and I will forever enjoy being its student. Since moving to the coast, both saltwater and yoga have been the catalysts to the changes in my life. They have helped me to change my career, my health, my friendships and they have also facilitated my restless nature by making it acceptable for me to travel! I want to use Saltwater Yoga to share my experiences with yoga and the ocean and pass them on through teaching, even as I continue to be a student myself. The sea has give me patience, balance, and a greater understanding of the way I treat myself and those around me.

Join and me in beautiful Sri Lanka for the friendliest surf & yoga retreat around!

A couple of last minute spaces available, it’s not too late to book 💃 Message me for more info

Sri Lanka, nestled in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean, offers a perfect blend of diverse surf breaks and a unique cultural experience. With a varied coastline made up of easy, deepwater reef breaks and lovely beachies, the island caters to surfers of all levels, from beginners to seasoned pros.

Weligama, Ahangama, and Midigama are renowned for their consistency, each providing the distinct surf conditions that make Sri Lanka an attractive choice for all levels of surfer. Along with the consistency of its swells throughout the year, the appeal of this area – especially between November to March – are the mellow, warm, easy peelers that suit alternative surf craft perfectly. Think long, reeling, chest high waves, perfect for longboards, fishes, mid-lengths and mini-mals.

The winds are predictable, offshore in the mornings – giving us beautiful, glassy conditions until the onshore winds arrive around midday - giving us time to eat, chill, read & rejuvenate with some yoga. And nap, of course. And then, if we’re lucky, the winds can change again, just in time for a sunset surf. 

Oh, and all of this is sans wetsuit. Dream.

I can’t wait - if you can’t make it maybe you know someone who would like to join us? Share away ☀️

Soluna yoga pop-up | at

3 - 5 March ‘23

Tired of the winter grey? We’re putting on a VERY last minute weekend getaway here in Portugal.

Come and enjoy three blissful nights away in the Portuguese sunshine, getting back into your body with two yoga & movement classes a day, and options for surf, hikes, swims and paddleboarding – or just lounge by the pool and read a book. It’s all up to you.

This is a no-hassle yoga mini-holiday to help you reset your system before spring, in great company and a beautiful setting.  We are very happy to be hosting this little pop-up , a place that both Becca and I teach in, and is very close to our hearts.

It’s a beautiful yoga space in an orange grove, and at this time of year the plants are lush and fruits plentiful (help yourself to anything from the avocado, orange, lemon or nêspera trees!)

If the weather is bad then we get cosy and practice inside with the log burner on.

This is our favourite time of year, hands down. It’s chilly in the mornings and evenings, but the beaches are quiet, the sun is hot and it is the best time of year to show you our favourite coastal walks.

We can organise surf lessons with Soul & Surf if you like, as well as paddleboarding or coasteering if you are so inclined.

Prices & info:

From €475 per person
3-5th March

What’s Included:

* Three nights accommodation at Soul & Surf
* Bed, breakfast & lunch
* 1 x welcome dinner
* 6 x yoga/movement sessions
* 1 x guided coastal walk
* All the fruit, tea & coffee you can consume

What’s not

* Transfers to and from the airport (we can recommend easy ways to get to us by bus, train or taxi)
* Flights
* Dinner on the Saturday & Sunday (Lagos’ old town is super close for nice dinners out)
* Surf lessons/activities apart from the included hike

Interested? Message for more info

Our Story

I am a yoga teacher and surf coach from the UK who has moved around quite a bit. I love to explore, and can currently be found playing in the Atlantic Ocean or teaching yoga in Newquay. The name Saltwater Yoga came about not because of proximity to, or immersion in the ocean but from the connection that I have with it and the feeling I get when I’m in or near the sea. The sea has been a great teacher to me and I will forever enjoy being its student. Since moving to the coast, both saltwater and yoga have been the catalysts to the changes in my life. They have helped me to change my career, my health, my friendships and they have also facilitated my restless nature by making it acceptable for me to travel! I want to use Saltwater Yoga to share my experiences with yoga and the ocean and pass them on through teaching, even as I continue to be a student myself. The sea has give me patience, balance, and a greater understanding of the way I treat myself and those around me. I teach Yin Yoga on Mondays at 7.45pm, and Vinyasa Flow on Tuesdays at 6.30pm (Both at Yoga Garden, Newquay) I also love food, which is one of the reasons I surf so much
