New class and new beautiful hilltop venue just outside Axminster.

Picture yourself making slow mindful moves in a purpose built studio with sweeping views across the Axe Valley. The tranquil setting makes it easy for you to slow down, move mindfully and let go of the tension you've been carrying.

Join me for Somatic Yoga, which combines slow, mindful movements with classic yoga poses to ease stiffness and calm a busy mind. We finish with a soothing guided relaxation, so you can leave feeling more relaxed and at ease.

This class is suitable for all levels, including beginners. I've been teaching yoga for 13 years and have over 30 years yoga experience. I'm used to providing options and modifications to moves and poses to accommodate stiff joints and various conditions that come with age. We'll use helpful props such as blocks and straps to support your practice.

If you love the idea of meditation, but find sitting still hard. You want to fidget, your hip starts aching and your mind is all over the place.

Somatic Yoga is like a moving meditation, it's all about how it feels rather than what it looks like.

Your guided to bring yourself inwards and completely immerse yourself into the movement, like a moving meditation.

I incorporate somatic yoga into most of my classes and have a new Somatic Yoga class starting near Axminster in September.

Keep watching this space or message me for details.

I’m taking a little break from teaching over the next few weeks 🙂

It’s been a busy summer and I’m looking forward to slowing down, resting and recharging.

Classes will be back from Monday 14th September, it will be great to see you back on the mat 🧘‍♀️🧘🧡

Enjoy the rest of your summer and, if you’re missing your yoga, remember there are plenty of classes in the online library to keep you moving while I’m away.

If you want to feel more grounded, calmer and connected to yourself join me for Yoga in the Park in Tatworth tonight.

Yoga is magical outdoors. There’s something special about moving your body in the fresh air, feeling the earth beneath your feet and letting nature slow you down.

By the end of the session you feel lighter and more present. It's like all your stress has melted away.

You can book online by following the link. Or turn up and pay £8 cash.

This weeks yoga is all about giving yourself permission to pause.

Late summer is a time to slow down, nourish ourselves and find a little more balance.

So rather than pushing, sweating and doing more, our classes will be slow, grounding and nourishing.

Expect gentle movement, lovely stretches, mindful breathing and plenty of time to simply pause.

And as I’m taking a three week break after this week, it feels like the perfect time to remind ourselves that rest isn’t something we have to earn.

Sometimes, the most productive thing we can do is stop.

So if you’re feeling tired, come and join me this week.

I've got Yoga in the Park on Thursday evening plus a full week of classes:

Monday 11am in Chard for Gentle Yoga.
Tuesday 9.30am in Ilminster for Hatha Yoga.
Tuesday 5.30pm in Chard for Beginners Yoga.

How did you view the eclipse?

In the Hatha class at Donyatt Village Hall last night, we borrowed a colander from the kitchen and made these cool shadows on the wall.

Chandra Namaskara, the moon salutation is a slower, cooler more calming sequence compared to the more widely used Sun Salutation.

As we have a New Moon eclipse, we'll be practicing this later in the Wednesday Warriors class in Donyatt Village Hall at 5.30pm.

Who's up for some moon themed yoga?

Wednesdays new moon eclipse has inspired the theme for this week's classes.

Expect some Moon Salutations, a half moon balance and moon meditation. We should be able to see the eclipse at Donyatt on Wednesday.

No class on Monday as I'm doing First Aid Training

Chair pose (utkatasana) is great for strengthening legs, improving balance and supporting healthy knees and hips.

In this reel I share some tips to help you get the most from this pose.

If you're thinking about trying yoga, my Beginners Yoga class in Chard on a Tuesday evening is the perfect place to start. I teach variations of most poses, especially for people with stiff backs, tight hips and bodies that simply need to move more kindly.
