River Flow Yoga

River Flow Yoga River Flow Yoga offers yoga with Gray Nolan in the form of classes, workshops, courses and retreats, all held at Chapel on the Green in Glasbury, Mid Wales.

Gray also offers Thai Yoga Massage at his home in Clyro. Based in Glasbury - just outside Hay-on-Wye

Gray has been teaching Yoga for almost 10 years and been practicing for over 20! He holds a BWY Diploma in Teaching Yoga and has also done many workshops and CPD with internationally renowned yoga teachers. Gray has worked with Special Yoga Foundation and provides workshops and training to other

yoga teachers and body workers. As well as a Thai Yoga Massage therapist - Gray is also a specialist in the field of disability and sensory impairment and works a 'day job' in a charity for people who are deafblind. As well as studying in the UK - Gray has been fortunate enough to spend time in India practicing yoga with his extended family. Vinyasa yoga is for Gray his preferred style - keeping things moving and fluid - he has borrowed a few statements which pop up in his classes from other teachers and yoga texts - his current favourite is 'any amount of the pose - is the pose' You do not have to look perfect or be tied up with belts and blocks to 'achieve' in yoga. Expect a class full of kindness, humour, compassion, working hard, repetition of the words 'plank' and 'breathe' and general feelings of wellbeing. In the Gentle yoga and Mindfulness classes - expect all that and more without the planks!

Thereโ€™s something about moving between river and lake that gently brings you back to yourself
The shock of cold water. The warmth of breath. The quiet rhythm that follows.

Our Flow Like a River retreats are an invitation to step into that rhythm โ€” blending nourishing yoga practices with invigorating wild swimming in rivers and lakes, surrounded by the beauty of the Welsh countryside. Held in the Black Mountains, these weekends are designed to help you reconnect, restore balance, and feel a little more at home in your body.

With expert guidance, wholesome seasonal food, and space to slow down, itโ€™s a chance to soften into the landscape and embrace the flow of it all.

Upcoming dates:

๐ŸŒŠ 8โ€“10 May โ€” shared triple room spaces available

๐ŸŒŠ 15โ€“17 May โ€” double room available (shared or single occupancy)

๐ŸŒŠ 26โ€“28 June โ€” limited spaces remaining

๐ŸŒŠ 11โ€“13 September โ€” filling steadily

2027 dates now open:

๐ŸŒŠ 7โ€“9 May
๐ŸŒŠ 14โ€“16 May

Whether itโ€™s your first dip or something you return to again and again, youโ€™ll be held every step (and swim) of the way.

Q***r Nature Retreat ๐ŸŒฟโœจ
12th -14th June 2026

3 spaces left

Step into a weekend of rest, connection, and gentle magic in the Black Mountains.

Expect cosy luxury Chapel on the Green , nourishing home-cooked food, and space to fully exhale. Mornings begin with energising yoga, evenings soften into restorative practices, breathwork, and meditation.

Swim in wild waters (if you feel called), wander through beautiful landscapes, and reconnect with nature - and yourself - at your own pace.

Thereโ€™s time for stillness, time for exploration, and time to gather. Our evening soirรฉe invites stories, music, poetry, and shared moments of joy.

With guided walks, candlelit chanting, and plenty of free time to rest or explore nearby Hay-on-Wye (including its q***r bookshop), this is a space to slow down, feel held, and be part of something quietly special.

Come as you are ๐ŸŒ™

Cold water. Hot sauna. Good people.

A few moments from our recent Fire & Ice weekends at the Chapel.

Cold river swims, wood-fired sauna heat, good food, deep breaths and plenty of laughter.

It was also so lovely to see so many familiar faces returning, having previously joined us for our Flow Like a River wild swim and yoga retreats.

We love watching this little community of swimmers, sauna lovers and nature seekers continue to grow. ๐Ÿ”ฅโ„๏ธ

Looking back at our autumn retreats, the Q***r Nature Retreat stands out as something truly special.

We were lucky enough to hold space for the most gorgeous little q***r community โ€” a weekend of rest, ritual, laughter, wildness and care.

Led by our senior teachers and Heath with creative support woven throughout, and a beautiful Q***r Nature workshop by .marshman , the whole weekend felt like a deep exhale. People arrived as strangers and left as kin.

Weโ€™re still carrying the magic of those days with us โ€” the conversations, the dips in cold water, the stories shared around the table, and the simple joy of q***r people gathering in nature and feeling completely themselves.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. You made it unforgettable ๐Ÿ’š

Big shout out to for gifting everyone with Q***r Books!
