Teaching their mock assessment classes this weekend on our yoga teacher training… and what a powerful, heart-opening experience it’s been.

We’ve been moving through the layers—overcoming limiting beliefs, softening imposter syndrome, and meeting the fear of standing at the front of the room. Gently releasing the samskaras that have been holding us back.

Showing up for hours of asana together, supporting one another, cheering each other on.

Purifying, strengthening, and awakening both body and mind.

We even rose early for an energising Ashtanga practice this morning.

So proud of these incredible souls for showing up for their growth and courageously stepping forward to share yoga in their own unique way. 🌟

If you feel the call to deepen your journey, there are still a few spaces left on our next Yoga Teacher Training starting this September. 🙏

Yoga teacher training, 5 weeks post-birth — what a gift.

This weekend reminded me just how blessed I am to do the work I do.
Deep gratitude for this incredible female body… and pure awe for all it carries, births, heals, and becomes.
Grateful for gym sessions supporting my pregnancy journey that's allowing a smooth recovery. 

Even though I was holding the learning container for this beautiful group of yogis… they held me.
I felt so deeply supported.
Soup and tea appeared as I marked lesson plans at lunch. 🤍
Thank .yogawithalice — your steady, loving support as a teaching assistant, stepping in when my body couldn’t demo or be fully present, has meant more than I can say.
And the thoughtful gifts from the group for Finley… my heart. 🥹

This weekend we explored fascia, arm balances, inversions, backbends, sadhana, and our own ancestral spiritual lineages.

The laughter, the chatter, the growing ease and connection each month across this 8-month journey makes my heart smile.
It felt like coming home.

And then… returning to my little family, waiting with open arms and cuddles.
So much gratitude. So much love.

✨ A few spaces remain for this year’s 200hr Foundational Yoga Teacher Training.

New Gem Yoga Training Venue at Gather Studio Devon

Sometimes life quietly rearranges things for us — and something even more aligned appears.

Over Christmas, as I moved through early motherhood, the venue for our upcoming 300hr Yoga Teacher Training shifted unexpectedly. What followed was a gentle invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and trust what wanted to unfold next.

I’m so happy to share that our training will now be held at , a beautiful oak-framed barn near Totnes — held by land, warmth, wide skies and community. From the moment I connected with this space, it felt like a true yes.

This feels like a new relationship, a new collaboration, and a container that will support us to go deep — into practice, learning, rest and connection.

Cosy, grounded, nature-held… and exactly the energy this journey deserves.

I can’t wait to welcome you into this space and step into the next chapter of the 300hr advanced yoga teacher training.

Trusting the flow — always.

As we reach the end of this year, I’ve been reflecting on what a truly magical chapter 2025 has been…

✨ We bought our first home - a sanctury in beautiful nature
✨ We travelled - from rustic cabins to tents to retreat locations
✨ I became a six-figure business owner
✨ I became pregnant
✨ I turned 40

But....this year hasn’t been magical because of these societal milestones.

This year has been magical because I chose to show up.
To expand in consciousness.
To stay curious.
To grow.

To explore another trip around the sun on this wild, wonderful planet… simply by being.

And now, I’m entering my next life chapter…
Motherhood.
Perhaps the biggest adventure of my life so far!

I am so deeply grateful for every message, every moment of support, every connection with this incredible community — both online and in person. Thank you for holding me through such a transformative year.

As winter arrives, I’ll be taking some gentle time off to nest, rest, and soak in the sweetness of my new little family.

Wishing you a beautiful, cosy, nourishing festive season.

I'm sharing this again, for those that missed this the first time around.
5-day completely free business training for yoga teachers.

Feel free to share with other yoga teachers.

Are you unsure where to direct your energy to truly grow your yoga business, in a way that feels aligned for you?

I’ve created something special for you—a free 5-day training designed to help you create a business that feels both soul-aligned and financially abundant.

Inside this training, you’ll uncover the 5 key shifts to building a sustainable yoga business—one that supports you, your purpose, and the life you’re dreaming of.

Each day we’ll dive into one powerful area to support your growth:

Day 1: The Foundation of Your Teaching – Sadhana (Practice)
Day 2: Your Business, Your Way – Remembering Your ‘Why’
Day 3: Money Samskaras – What Gets in the Way of Receiving More?
Day 4: Trusting Your Inner Wisdom for Flow & Financial Abundance
Day 5: Working in Joy, Ease & Presence to Expand Your Business

This is a free offering from my heart to support you right where you are. At the end, I share a little about my mentoring membership—but as I move towards maternity leave, that space is gently winding down.

So really, this is my gift to you 💛—a resource to help you reflect, shift something inside, and grow your business with more financial freedom in alignment with your dharma and soul’s expression.

✨https://gemyoga.co.uk/freebie/ ✨

I hope this serves you deeply, and I can’t wait to hear what shifts come through for you.

You can now buy my advanced asana breakdown workshop for just £47! For teachers and students.

A deep-dive into advanced postures for teachers ready to refine technique, build strength, and teach with confidence — and for yogis wanting to expand their practice with intention and awareness.

Inside this course, you’ll find 10 detailed, workshop-style sessions covering:

✨ Inversions (Headstand, Forearm Balance, Handstand)
✨ Arm balances (Crow + variations)
✨ Deep backbends (King Pigeon)
✨ Strength + mobility prep
✨ Step-by-step alignment & safe progressions

Each workshop blends breakdown + prep + drills + variations, supporting you to understand the mechanics of each posture while learning how to teach — or practise — them safely, intelligently, and with integrity.

This journey will support you to:

- Build strength in key areas
- Improve balance, stability, and body awareness
- Understand the why behind alignment
- Step confidently into teaching more advanced postures
- Progress your own practice with clarity and intention

If you’re ready to deepen your physical practice, elevate your teaching, and feel more grounded and confident in advanced asanas — this course was created to support your evolution.

"Gem’s teachings leave me feeling much stronger than I think I am, and I’ve discovered that asana offer ways to access the self beyond simply physical, but energetic and mental as well.” - Alice

“Gemma has incredible knowledge but also years of experience, which shines through in her teaching." - Lucy-Ann

If you’re a yoga teacher wanting to welcome in more abundance this Christmas—but you’re noticing reduced classes, cancelled bookings, and students rushing off to festive parties—take a deep breath.

✨ Here are 5 aligned ways to support your business, your community, and your energy this season ✨

1. Offer gift vouchers
Private 1:1s, class bundles, or a personalised sequence package make beautiful wellbeing gifts.
Remember: your prices reflect your training, experience, prep and planning. Honour your worth.

2. Create Christmas + January offers
A discounted 1:1 package, bring-a-friend classes, or a themed January mini-program.
Festive season = imbalance for many. Your offerings help students stay centred + grounded.

3. Seasonal offerings
Winter invites rest + reflection. Align with that energy:
Candlelit yin, yoga nidra evenings, themed workshops, day retreats or full winter retreats.

4. Permission to rest + plan
You’re allowed to restore and use this time to dream + create.
December (and August) can naturally be lower-income months. In the past I would take the whole of August and December off. I used them for rest and to birth retreats, courses and ideas that carried my business forward.
Rest fuels creativity. Creativity fuels abundance.

5. Nourish your community
Strengthen your sangha with a coffee meet-up, festive class + dinner, or a year-end circle.
When students feel supported, they stay committed—to their practice and to you.

What resonates most for you?

I have created a 40 min yoga class on youtube for any pregnant yogis out there.

But also... if you just want to follow along for a simple nurturing class - you are welcome too!

The intention of this class is:
✨ Core stregnth
✨ Hip stability
✨ Creating space in the body
✨ Relaxation

This 40-minute class is designed to support you through every stage of pregnancy—helping you build core and hip stability, create spaciousness in the body, and deepen body awareness to support your pregnancy journey, prepare for birth, and aid your postpartum recovery.

Please honour your body throughout this practice. If anything doesn’t feel comfortable or supportive, gently come out of the posture, adapt, or stop the practice completely.

This class is created with yogis in mind. I’ve had a long, strong yoga practice before my pregnancy and have remained active throughout my pregnancy. What feels good in my body may feel different in yours—so take what serves you, leave what doesn’t, and move in a way that feels nourishing and safe.

I hope you enjoy this practice, Gem 🙏
