This isn’t a retreat for everyone.

It’s for people who want to practise properly.
With space. With steadiness ♡

The retreat is in July.
There’s still time — but not endless time.

If something in you feels drawn to depth over stimulation,
to real guidance rather than hype,
to being part of a small group and you've thought 'Id like to do something like that one day' this is the day 😊

I’ve waited a long time to host a retreat of my own.
I’ve been teaching since 2013, and this was never something I wanted to rush into.

My focus has been on deepening my own practice, evolving my teaching, and growing

I’ve co-taught retreats and offered immersions before, but this one feels different —
because it’s shaped entirely by what Mikey and I value most as practitioners.

Over time, I realised what I need from a retreat has changed.
Not because retreats are wrong,
but because my priorities have evolved.

I no longer crave packed schedules or constant activity.
I value space to practise properly,
clear personal guidance,
and enough time for things to genuinely settle and let it soak in.

That reflection is what shaped this retreat ♡

I shaped this retreat from what I wanted as a practitioner now.

Space to focus on my practice.
Personal guidance.
Time to let things settle.
Time to enjoy the surroundings.

No rushing. No pressure. No performing.

If you're craving something simpler and more nourishing, this might be for you.

2004. 20 years ago. Somewhere in southern India, outside a 13th century Temple. The first time I sat on a yoga mat. 16 years old, Rockin a Mars Volta T-shirt and jeans 🤘

I remember it like it was yesterday. The inspiration I got from an amazing yogi who gave a little talk and demonstration before teaching us. It blew my mind how present, serene, light, and strong he was. From that moment on, I was hooked.

It's amazing how that one day changed the course of my life. I am so grateful. That day ended up being the start of my own spiritual journey, meeting the love of my life, birthing our son, building a shala, and a loving, supportive community ♡
This practice can take you anywhere. By stepping onto the mat today, you are looking out for your future self.

I know I look cool 😎

It's been almost 2 years since I dropped back. My intuition guided me through pregnancy and postpartum. I took things slowly and didn't push. My postpartum recovery has been a long journey with a lot of healing/strengthening that is still ongoing. It's important to go slowly after giving birth and not over do it. Your energy is already spread thin as you adapt to a new way of life, especially if you're breastfeeding. The idea of 'bouncing back' is a modern and in my opinion foolish way of thinking. Yes it's important to rehab but it needs to be done with patience, awareness and Compassion for yourself.
One of the many great things my yoga practice has given me is a deep awareness for my body. Trusting that my body will heal and become strong again even in the darkest of times when it felt like it wouldn't. I actually have more control and awareness for my core strength now than I did before through daily pelvic floor excersises and yoga practice.
So here's my second drop back since Abel. Not as springy as it used to be! 🙃 But it feels like the right time now and feels good. Coming back to practice has been an even more exciting, nourishing and grateful journey than it was as a beginner 🙏

Eight months postpartum

I'll be totally honest. My recovery from birth has been a lot more challenging than I thought it would be. After forceps delivery, episiotomy, incorrect stitches, prolapse and a big Diastasis Recti gap it left me feeling pretty broken and unsure where to start.

I've had some amazing advice from fellow ashtanga practitioners as well as excersies from and treatment from my acupuncturist. I've had a pretty clean diet with lots of warm healing foods from the start such as bone broths and nutrient dense stews.

My yoga practice as always has been the biggest blessing. Starting with just raising my arms above my head for a week (ekam inhale) and then slowly progressing to a modified sun salutation, adding more little by little. With a baby practice has not been consistently the same time every day like it used to be and there have been days when stepping onto the mat has just not been possible or my practice has lasted 2 minutes before little man has woken up!

I've used my new tools for healing prolapse and Diastasis within my practice. Lots of drawing in and focusing on functional movement and bringing that awareness off the mat into how I walk around and hold/carry Abel.
8 months ago it did not feel like I'd ever be able to do asana like headstand again but I knew with practice it would come back and actually with this new awareness I feel more strength and awareness coming that perhaps I didn't have before.
There's still healing to be done but I guess I just wanted to really express how incredible this practice really is 🥰

To any new mum or mum of many I would welcome you into our mysore classes with open arms to help build back strength and stability after birth. Just ping me a message to chat! 😊🙏

Hey everyone! I'm so excited to be teaching BEGINNERS YOGA COURSE Starting this Sunday 1130-1330 ♡

If you're interested in starting yoga but still haven't taken the plunge! There couldn't be a better way to start your journey.
I remember what it was like being a beginner. So many fears thinking it was going to be too hard or that everyone would be staring at me. If it wasn't for the amazing teacher I had holding such a nurturing and understanding space for me I don't know where I would be today. This course is designed with all this in mind. You don't have to be flexible /strong/calm etc come as you are. Yoga is for everybody.

We have a couple of spots left so if you're interested PM I'll send you all the details 🙏
