Thrive Yoga and Wellness

09/02/2026

I have been keeping a little secret…..over the last year I threw myself back into probably one of the best yoga teacher trainings available in this country at this time (over 8 years after my very first yoga teacher qualification) and I am very pleased to say that I’m now a Daoist Flow qualified teacher 🙌

Daoist Flow combines the principles of breath, energy and alignment with primary movement patterns; Yogic, Buddhist and Daoist philosophy, vinyasa flow, yoga practise and theory, somatic movement practise and theory, qigong practise and theory, somatic anatomy, meditation and mindfulness. It really is a beautifully healing practise 💗

It was an absolute privilege to be able to learn from some of the best teachers out there not exclusively but including and a big shout out to my fantastically inspiring and creative mentor for supporting me through the process 💫

I am now based in the Lichfield area so if you think Daoist Flow might be of interest to you, or alternatively if you’re a teacher/healer/therapist and you’d like to collaborate, please reach out 🙏✨

It is with heavy heart that I must inform you that all classes in the north Staffordshire area (Stafford, Eccleshall and Stoke) have now ceased (as of 18 December 2025). This is due to my relocation to Lichfield.

Watch this space for future wellness events 🙏🩷

I hope everyone has had a fabulous summer break!
Owing to a slight change in my circumstances and current training commitments, my teaching schedule is now as follows:

Ebb and Flow group practise (weekly) - starts again on Monday 8 September at Eccleshall Community Centre 7pm

One to one yoga and yoga therapy sessions (either at The Therapy Quarters, Stoke on Trent, in person or online) - Fridays at various times

Private group practise (minimum 5 persons) - Friday

I do have other flexibility for one to ones on a case by case basis so please get in touch if that’s of interest.

I look forward to practising with you again on the mat 🧘🏻🩷

Join me and Love, Light and Lemonade for this inspiring afternoon sacred geometry yoga and art retreat 🩷✨

As a mathematician, spiritual artist and light language practitioner, I LOVE Sacred geometry! ☸️🌀⚛️

It is essentially the study of the spiritual meaning, energy and symbolism of various shapes.

It can be applied to the forms, numbers, and patterns, seen throughout the natural world, in snail shells, flowers, snowflakes and so much more!

It exists both on a cellular level and in the stars and orbiting planets.

Rooted in its nature is the understanding that nothing is in isolation; everything is connected

Different patterns formed from sacred geometry offer focal points for meditative states, such as mandalas and Sri Yantras.

In our wonderful Sacred Flow ~ Art and Yoga Afternoon Retreat we’ll be painting this flower of life image adding colours intuitively and learning about this sacred symbol ⚛️🌸🌼

WALK FOR WELLNESS

The irony of being a small human being on this planet in the midst of this vast cosmos is that we think we have time…

The butterflies and the birds of prey were dancing today, the skies the purest blue, the sun shining as we were beautifully held by Mother Earth whilst Grandmother Moon was smiling down.

We are here for a small fleeting moment and on days like today it’s a reminder that we don’t need to die to experience the circle of life and to find heaven; it’s around us and within us, sometimes we just need to open our eyes a bit wider to see 🙏☀️💫💕
