I have a few potential dates for some more Restorative/Yin Yoga Sessions
Saturday the 25th of October at 3pm
Thursday the 13th of November at 7pm
Thursday the 27th of November at 7pm
These dates can be used for either a 90 minute restorative session or a 75 minute yin session both sequences will be 'Autumnal Practices', to open the heart and take in new prana, embodying the earth's energy gathering inward and preparing to 'let go' for the winter , and will be priced at
Restorative Yoga - £18.50 per person
Yin Yoga - £15 per person
If the Yin or Restorative Sessions would be of interest to you, please phone, private message or email me with your preference for date and style of practice. If you would be available for more than one of the dates can you give me them in order of your preference.
If you could let me know as soon as possible that would be ideal, as places will be allocated on a first come first served basis.

One of my favourite things about Yoga is that you are constantly learning. Perhaps you are attending a class, a workshop or a 1 to 1. You might be spending time on your own mat learning what feels right for you in your own personal practice. As a teacher you also have the privilege of learning from your students, watching how they adapt a posture to suit their own body and requirements, how they respond to the cues you offer them and how they naturally counter a posture.
Sometimes you even get the chance learn to remember how great it can me to just mess about and have fun.
Had an amazing time attending Thai Yoga Massage Skills for Yoga Teachers Workshop at Merchant City Yoga 🙏

During today’s 1 to 1 session, my client and I will be focusing on gently opening the front of the body using a combination of pranayama, some slow flow, yin and restorative asanas
What would you like to focus on
Developing a personal practice
Looking more closely at asanas which you find challenging in class
Stretching out areas of tension
Finding some quiet time within your own mind
The possibilities are endless 🙏

Thank goodness for old stone buildings. I’m looking forward to getting into the church hall tonight to get a lovely little cool down before class. I love the sun, but it does dehydrate us, please be sure to drink plenty of water before coming to class tonight 🙏

You know it’s been a good restorative session when, at the end of the class, the studio looks like the aftermath of a 10 year olds slumber party 😉

Well hasn't this been the fastest start to a year ever! Right up until the end of December I was happy saying not until next year, and all of a sudden the wedding was only 5, and now less than 4 months away.
Jim and I have decided to take a little honeymoon after the wedding, with Freya obviously (I think we might need it), so I will be taking almost 2 weeks off this June to allow for both.
The salon will close at the end of business on Tuesday the 10th of June and re-open on Tuesday the 24th of June 2025
Fresh Yoga's Wednesday night Vinyasa Class will also take a holiday, there will be no classes on the 11th and 18th of June

February 2025 Tip -
I regularly speak to clients when they come in for workshops or 1 to 1's about how simple it can honestly be to integrate the practice of yoga into your everyday life. Whether that is doing a standing cat cow flow in the shower with the hot water helping to loosen your spine, standing on one leg while you clean your teeth or taking mountain pose any time you have to stand and wait for something.
It's very important however, to remember that yoga is not simply a movement practice, it is so much more. Find moments of stillness during your day when you can tune out the rest of the world and reconnect with yourself. If tuning out does not come easily then find simple ways to focus the mind, perhaps using the practice of pranayama by tuning into your breath, inhaling slowly, and exhaling even more slowly. I like to use a count, in for 4 and out for 6, perhaps building to leaving a pause at the peak of the inhale and exhale, see if you can learn to lengthen that pause.
Perhaps take your focus to something external and create a mindful moment out of any everyday task, taking a simple joy in the pleasure of eating lunch or making a cup of tea. Find your bliss by appreciating everything good in your life and trying to share that joy with every person you meet, a simple smile or a kind word can have an amazing impact on a persons day.
