My personal yoga practice is so much more than a workout.

My yoga is way more than some well-being bolt on.

My yoga is more than just a conditioning programme.

And whilst in a diluted fashion it will tick the above boxes, if we allow ourselves only to be served a convenient, yet watered down experience, we miss the deeper opportunities of yoga and all its eight limbs affords us.

My practice has been the only sacred sanctuary I could turn to throughout the busy-ness of motherhood, the sadness of grief, the hurt of divorce or the juggling of self-employment. It has been my anchor during menopause and so many more moments when it has felt as though the wheels were falling off in my life. These gateway moments have been navigated and survived because of the clarity and the sanctuary the practices have afforded me.

Join me, either online, in person or on retreat for opportunities to dive really deep into a genuine undiluted yoga experience.

I offer you the retreats I used to crave. Special, awe inspiring places to take a deeper dive into your yoga practice.

I never dilute the teachings. My work, passion & speciality is to make yoga relevant, accessible, supportive & transformational.

So whilst there may be options to do other things like ride your bike or have a ski, primarily the people who enjoy these yoga adventures are yoga folk. It would be enough simply to join us for the yoga teachings themselves.

September - Turkey
October - Spain

To be honest I’ve forgotten more than I’ll ever remember. I need my yoga buddies so as to be reminded and inspired. Yoga keeps us humble. There’s more wisdom in awakening to our ignorance than trying to pretend otherwise.

Gabriel gave me a new way to cue agnistanbhasana (easy variation). Feet start mat distance apart. Bring one foot under the knee of the opposite leg & then the other shin in front. His classes are in Havenstreet.

Nancy used this block configuration to prepare the shoulders for Sirsasana. It’s good for opening up the armpits. And although you can’t quite see it, I’m walking in and coming right up on my tippy toes. Nancy is my lovely Iyengar buddy in Brading.

Della did this sweet, low & accessible variation of vatayanasana. Something of a humble horse. Della also teaches in Brading on a Thursday.

Free yourself from the commercialisation of your god given wiring! Please 🙏🏻

All of nature flows from one state of energy to the other, and back and forth. Like the moon from full to new. Like the seasons from winter to summer.

Yoga teaches experientially and intellectually to cultivate integrated awareness of your inner state at any given time. In the Upanishads and in the Bhagavad Gita the energies are described as the Gunas.

I’ve started viewing the three Gunas as the universal mirror of our Autonomic Nervous System.

When we are caught in Rajas, our Sympathetic Nervous System is driving the bus—all accelerator, no brakes.

When we slide into Tamas, we’ve hit the wall of exhaustion.

But in Sattva, we find that “flow state” where the system is balanced and we see clearly; energised yet relaxed.

Which “Guna-State” are you operating from today?

The practice of yoga brings us back towards balance. Unroll your mat, step on, take a few deep breathes and let the body do its thing.

You don’t need hours and hours of practice. You don’t need fancy pants. You don’t need to fly long haul to Bali. You don’t need many of the things that I see being sold under the banner of ‘balance your nervous system!’ Protect yourself from the wellbeing industry catastrophising and shaming you for being off balance. We all have the capacity to oscillate between the two extremes, like the tides from high to low. Learn how to move between. It’s called life.

The way that we breathe, the way that we move, the shapes that we make with the body, the awareness and the mindfulness with which we experience any moment affects your nervous system. BUT THE KEY IS AWARENESS. Integrated awareness. Educate yourself. Aquire self knowledge & understanding. A good yoga teacher will help 😉. But, a good yoga teacher will be teaching you to be independent over time.

LET’S TURN OFF OUR PHONES. Let’s lean back into the simplicity of riding our bikes and restorative practice on our yoga mats.

More & more of us want these gentle healthy opportunities for a real FELT experience. To turn off the distractions and the noise. Enjoy excellent food & beautiful simple hospitality in a stunning setting.

My yoga teaching is not a workout, it’s an undiluted opportunity to dive into a meaningful, lived yoga experience.

The cycle rides are simply beautiful. Spanish culture, rolling vistas & sunflowers.

It’s what we do best. We still have some availability this year. Comment ‘Cycle’ below and we’ll send you the link. 🌻

Greeting the day. Nothing fancy, just leaning into the familiar Sivananda 12 - but always back to front. It just always felt as though it makes more sense energetically to me this way round.
