The Last In-Person Yoga & Writing Session this Summer – I’d Love You to Join Me here in Sheffield.

Take a morning just for you — to slow down, move gently, and reconnect.

Join me for a calming and restorative session combining yoga, meditation, and reflective writing. No experience is needed in either yoga or writing — just come as you are.

This is a quiet, nurturing space where you're free to explore your thoughts without pressure to share. Many people find that gentle movement and deep relaxation help unlock creativity and clarity, and writing can help with our meditation practice.

I’d love you to come along and enjoy this peaceful and inspiring morning before we pause for summer.
