She is the ocean 🌊. She is the moon 🌝. She is you.

The sea rises and falls like the breath of a woman — wild, cyclical, powerful beyond measure. Just like the tides, we ebb and flow. And when we come together, our waves become unstoppable.

Join us for Flow & Freedom: A Women’s Inspired Yoga Retreat where we reconnect to the ocean within — our intuition, our rhythm, our fierce softness.

Daily yoga, ocean dips, sisterhood and soul-deep connection.

Because you are not too much.
You are tidal.
You are timeless.
You are free.

💤✴️ La dolce vita💤✴️

It literally translates as the sweet life, but it's hard to explain if you're not Italian, so I'll try my best.
For us, la dolce vita, it's not simply a philosophy, it's more a way of living and being. It's about savouring every single bite, it means taking in the beauty around you and treasuring your loved ones. But it's also about taking the time to rest, taking a nap in the afternoon after a huge meal. Truly nourishing yourself, just like I did today:

1) I woke up to a delicious granita (a typical Sicilian semi frozen dessert served with a huge brioche that resembles a bit a woman's breast🤭)
2) I walked to the beach for the longest dip in history, to the point my finger tips turned all pruney🤣
3) I showered and changed into another swimming costume 👙
4) I sat for the most delicious pasta alla Norma (another typical delicatessen of the Sicilian cuisine, consisting of fresh tomato sauce 🍅, fried aubergine 🍆, because in Sicily we fry everything 🤭, and salty ricotta cheese)
4) I am now enjoying 'u frisco' (cool air) under a lemon tree🍋

This for me is self-care, it's grounding, it's mindfulness, it's practicing gratitude, what la dolce vita is: simple pleasures yet so worthy, what life should really be all about ❤️

Take a group of women, place them in the most picturesque surroundings you can possibly imagine, a pier overlooking the Egadi islands with the most stunning sunset. A delicious serving of fish cous cous and rivers of cold white wine. A couple of sneaky shooting stars and some random music, including Elvis, as the soundtrack for the evening being played from a far. Such simple pleasures yet they made me feel so rich, so grateful for taking part in all of this. A dream of mine, is to eventually take you home with me and share all of this with you, and even more. Shall we make this a thing? What are your thoughts? 💭

I was joined by nine beautiful souls, and together, we got to create our very own Mala 📿. We then charged them with the mantra Om Hrim Namah Shivaya Om (I bow to supreme consciousness) and used them to meditate. What an absolute pleasure it is to share these practices with you. Thank you for making it possible ❤️

Unleash Your Creativity Workshop 🌼
We focused on the Sacral Chakra (not the Solar Plexus sorry for the typo🤭) which is where our creativity resides and then we put it into practice by making super cute Macramé wall hanging guided by Giuliana Forestieri . The perfect way to celebrate the Spring Equinox ☀️
Thank you for joining me, it has been an absolute pleasure to flow with you💛
Don't miss our next workshop next month🧘‍♀️📿

✨ Intention Setting & Cacao Workshop ✨
A beautiful morning of gratitude giving and inner journeys guided by Cacao medicine. Such a special event. I am so very grateful for each and everyone of you for giving me this immense honour of holding space for you. My 🩷 is so full right now🤲

🫵The making of a workshop/class: do you know what goes behind the scenes?🫵

I can only speak for myself, so this is not a rule set in stone 🪨.

1) Everything starts with an idea, it could be something I have done or experienced myself that I think has potential to be appreciated by others.

2) This evolves in how I can offer it: could it be a series of yoga sessions, might it be better to take half a day to explore or even a weekend?

3) Once this has been established, it's the case of finding a time that fits with my schedule, in the past I was in full time employment and education, managing a small business on the side. Now I am a full time PGCE student who is finding 24 hours are not enough to squeeze in everything. It's very challenging to wear as many hats as you will know, so if eventually I find a date and you can't make it, I am truly sorry because I really try my best so please refrain from getting in touch if you already know you are not available in those dates to ask if I am hosting the same event again. I am not a huge yoga studio with other teachers working for me, I am on my own, so chances are I won't be able to unfortunately. Don't make me feel bad for this🙊

4) I then have to find the perfect venue, thinking about parking, accessibility, facilities, ect.. this has a cost, of course, and like anything else in this current times prices have gone up. Please know that I try to make my offerings available to everyone, and sometimes the costs involved in running a class/ a workshop or a retreat are more than you can imagine!

5) Now it's time to put everything together and send it out to the universe, hoping you connect with my vision and want to share it with me. I do a little dance every time someone signs up for one of my offerings, because it means the 🌍 me. It means you trust me to guide you in the experience and I am thrilled to embark on it with you. So it goes without saying that when I have to cancel an event because not enough people have signed up it's a very sad time for me😔

I wanted to share this with you because I like to be transparent and as open as I can about what I do and why I do things.

Thanks for your trust and love🤲🩷
