Kelly Slade Yoga

Kelly Slade Yoga Hi, I offer Vinyasa flow, Dynamic Hatha, Yin, yoga Nidra and Breathwork in East Sussex. Twice yearly affordable luxurious European overseas retreats too.

I have studied many styles of the physical forms of yoga including Vinyasa, Iyengar, Ashtanga, Bikram, Hatha, Restorative, Yin to name but a few and my style of yoga reflects what I deem are the best bits of all of these. I have a deep respect for Pranayama, meditation, as well as Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) and I love to incorporate these elements into my classes as they are so beneficial for our health and well-being. My inspiration comes from you... my awesome yogi tribe that just inspire me every day. You all help me realise my dream of sharing my passion for yoga with you. Through creating a safe space and placing emphasis on softening and synchronising your breath I will guarantee you will flow with more ease than you believed possible which will, in turn deepen your practise.

Another trip around the sun… tomorrow is my birthday. I will be 46 years young.

Life passes by ever so quickly. The days and months that slip by. And I have no idea where the 6 years since Covid went do you?

What I do know is it took me a long time to periodise my own self care. I still fall back into old habits of comparison and uncertainty. But I keep working on reaffirming my core values. To always show up as authentic, truthful and the best version of myself I can be.

There will always be obstacles, perimenopause is certainly not helping but I know everything I have achieved on my path has been a result of showing up intentionally.

Thank you for being here, thank you for showing up to my classes and retreats. I love my community and I couldn’t be the person who I want to be without you.

See you on the mat 💕

Yoga is about showing up for yourself. It’s about pure connection. The breath, the movement, the discipline in mindful movement when all you want to do is hibernate during the winter months. It’s about appreciating the benefits of rest.

But how do you know when to do what? Yoga teaches us interoception. It aligns us with a deep knowing of our true self. I know it does sound kooky or strange and I was sceptical too many years ago.

But for those of you who need the science who need that confirmation, it’s about calming the brain waves to a meditative state. In a world where there is so much information maybe you need to lean in to knowing or accepting there’s more than eat,sleep, work, repeat.

The connections we make with ourself on the mat. The acceptance that maybe today we’re feeling a little wobbly and need some grounding. Yoga gives you the chance to pause, to check in and from this place of deep awareness you can then tune into what your body and mind truly needs.

I hope to see you on the mat soon. I guide classes in Berwick all week and would love for you to join us. What’s holding you back?

Monday views not blues 💕

After taking a little time off social media during the Christmas holidays I have returned and my feed is bombarded with ‘winter means rest’ anecdotes. Much better than the ‘new year, new you’ of last year I suppose!

Winter means a slower pace. It would never have been devoid of all movement, sat in front of the tele and wishing the time away. We would have slept longer and spent less time with visual and social stimuli. Life should be slower but it doesn’t need to stop.

Living a life of aligning with the seasons can feel so liberating. You will intuitively feel what you need.

To start; get yourself outside when you can. A walk at lunchtime, pay attention to all nature is showing you.

I saw something recently that said (and I’m paraphrasing as I can’t remember who said it) we wonder why we’re ill in winter when we try to live the pace of summer without all the benefits. We don’t open the windows in our home to clear out old stagnant energy, we don’t spend extended time outside and we don’t eat the fresh seasonal food. Preferring instead to eat the quick energy available from processed food.

So honour your inner winter. Slow but don’t stop. Breathe deeply, fresh air, meditation and mindful movement. Bring heat internally but don’t fight. Enjoy the winter process 💕

See you at class later. Where we’ll reset after the busy social period and focus on breath and movement.

Yoga classes restart from Monday in Berwick 💕

Which one is calling you?

Vinyasa flow is a very strong practice. You are always encouraged to find the version of the pose that suits you but as we flow breath to movement I recommend you have some experience of yoga before attending this class.

Beginners is for you if you’re brand new to yoga or maybe you’d like a refresher if you haven’t attended class for a while. A slower pace where we visit the foundations of the poses, Breathwork and meditation.

Dynamic Hatha and Mixed Level is for all. Sometimes we flow breath to movement. Sometimes we hold poses for a number of breaths to maintain and increase our balance, mobility and flexibility. Building strength and resilience as tune inwards. Each class is different which is why these are offered as a course. For a full rounded yoga experience.

I offer classes of reconnection, breath and movement. Every single person is different and you are welcomed as you are. It’s not a new fad or a new style to convince you to try something new. It’s pure authentic yoga. You just need to embrace the practice and not compare yourself to anyone else. Because we are all perfectly unique 💕

Once upon a time I had a focused and clear direction how id like to show up in the world.

I spent a lot of time on my own walking up on the downs and rediscovering a consistent yoga practice after my second child was born. I felt in the best shape mentally and physically that I’d ever been in my life.

But I had a young baby so I made sure I found some time to myself during such a period when self doubt and tiredness could have easily led the way.

So when my youngest was old enough I decided I needed to know more about yoga and why after years of trying so many exercise regimes that this was the one I held on to.

I’ve trained in so many different style of yoga, I have attended many workshops and classes and you know what I learned? Yoga simply isn’t exercise. It’s been around for thousands of years as a way to live, to encourage us to slow down and learn more about ourselves. Only then can we realise our potential.

Our nervous system responds better when we’re consistent and show up for ourselves. We focus on breath and utilisation of the diaphragm that calms our brain waves. Our movement comes from a place of exploration and not the repetition of a few poses. We are fully embodied. We learn where to make adjustments so the pose can feel better in our bodies. Then we take rest. The most powerful part of our practice is savasana. The time where our body and mind absorbs our practice and our nervous system comes to know this is the norm. Not a never ending exercise, work, eat regime. We need more, we deserve more. And that’s why yoga is so powerful.

I offer classes of reconnection, breath and movement. Every class and every person is different and you are welcomed as you are. It’s not a new fad or a new style to convince you to try something new. It’s pure authentic yoga. You just need to embrace the practice and not compare yourself to anyone else. Because we are all perfectly unique 💕

Happy New Year’s Eve 💕

As the sun rises on the last day of 2025 I have spent some time meditating and listening in over this past week.

Rest is the single most important thing you can offer yourself. I know I mention it regularly but as I prepared for Christmas this year I felt the overwhelm creep in.

We know that this last year was the year of completion and release. Closing chapters of old habits. This has shown up in the Chinese zodiac, the cosmic and numerology too.

I’ve always leaned in towards self care, pausing, meditation but maybe I realise I stop short of feeling my intuition and trusting it actually.

So my new year’s intention will be working on my inner alignment. Making sure the things that drain me will no longer guide me. The year of the horse will help me accelerate this learning.

My offerings have always come of a place where I have made some sort of connection. Then I share my learnings with you all. So watch this space, I can’t wait to share what the story will be and how it will unfold.

Until then I will continue to offer the yoga classes in Berwick that I know will make you feel amazing. Help you reconnect back in with yourself. Learn to breathe, accept and surrender. Learn when you can push yourself and learn when to receive and recover.

Yoga isn’t a fad. It’s been around for thousands of years. It builds connection, it invites listening in. You don’t need to control the outside world. You need to be able to control the inner chaos.

💕New Year Yoga in Berwick 💕

This in between time of Twixmas usually sees us reflect on the past year and set New Year’s resolutions. A time to set some goals for the season ahead. Millions of people try to change their lives for the ‘better’ but this usually means they set their goals based on a negative mindset. For example rather than thinking ‘I would like to prioritise my health and self care in the new year’ the resolution is ‘I will join a gym and lose x pounds or stone. The latter is focused on guilt for allowing themselves to gain the x number of pounds or it’s because they do not like something about themselves.

What I prefer is new year intentions…. Yoga and particularly intention setting does not utilise this self deprecating mindset. Instead we turn our focus inward and consciously appreciate where our body and mind is today. We move mindfully and working with the breath calm the brainwaves so we can no longer judge ourselves, we just focus on the present moment. That’s it really.

For those of you worried that you won’t be ‘good’ at yoga. It’s impossible to get it wrong. If you can breathe, you can do yoga. We just need to find the right style of yoga that suits you in this moment. And this will change, which why I will encourage you to try yoga again if you’ve given it a go before and it wasn’t quite your thing then; it could well be now.

I honestly believe everyone can find some space and a practice that will make you feel so much better in your body. You just need to be motivated to give it a go.

Come and join an amazing group of people. We are all different, you are welcomed as you are and asked to respect your body and mind. Finally learn how to enjoy the body you’re in.

Classes are listed above. There is a very strong vinyasa flow class on a Monday at 6pm. This is not suitable for beginners but if you’re looking for a very strong dynamic class, I’d love to welcome you.

Merry Christmas to you all.

Thank you for supporting me this last year. It’s been a busy one for sure. But one of many connections and a community like no other.

Wishing you a wonderful festive time with family and friends. And I’ll welcome you back to classes from Monday 5 January.

With love and light,
Kelly 🎄🙏

Yoga is about connection. Pure and simple. It’s not the mastery of the postures or poses. It’s not externalisation. It’s about being with yourself and showing up when life tries to pull you in a million different directions.

It’s about finding stillness in the chaos. I move my body so my mind can be still. It can take a break. It brings you back to yourself. The place where life should only exist but yet we spend much of our time planning for the future or agonising over the past.

It’s not about keeping on the treadmill when life is tough. It’s leaning that today I need to offer my body something different. Because each day I learn something more about myself. I’m not bending to the external factors that say I need to perform a certain way. Yoga is freedom. In movement, thought and being.

Yoga asks you to sit with uncomfortable feelings and learn to find ways to find clarity and direction. You will fully connect to a practice like yoga because it’s about being embodied. About acceptance and in a world where you’re expected to be so much, why not try something that brings you home to yourself?

Happy 1st December all! But what a miserable day it is out there. Today I’ll be sending out my newsletter, spending some time planning my classes, finalising some details and creating our WhatsApp community for our Ithaca retreat next year. As I wasn’t so inspired with the UK this morning this image is our view from one of the terraces at our retreat venue 💕

Yoga and wreath workshop - Sunday 7 December in Alfriston. Only two spaces left!

Expect nourishing yoga and Nidra suitable for everyone. Cake, mulled wine, tea and a wreath making workshop led by Nicola.

A self care afternoon spent with lovely people transitioning us into the Christmas season. Winter is a time for rest, reflection and relaxation but the Christmas period normally demands so much more of us. So carve out an afternoon to focus on yourself and see how reset and incredible you can feel. And the bonus is you have a stunning wreath to take home to remind you of the day 💕
