We are delighted to let you know that we are now stocking a selection of products from Shea Alchemy in Stroud Yoga Shop on Nelson Street, and online!

Shea Alchemy is a lovely women-led, family run business, based in Cornwall. Rachel met one of the alchemists Claire, at this year's WOMAD Festival and loved the products so much she decided to stock them in our little shop here in Stroud!

Swipe through to find out a bit about each one 🫶🏻

Tired Leg Rub
With organic extracts of circulation-boosting, anti-inflammatory horse chestnut and cooling eucalyptus, this formula helps relieve swollen ankles and tired, puffy legs. It also helps reduce the appearance of thread veins.

Healing Hands
Now with added organic Argan oil - known as Morocco's 'miracle oil'. This rich hand cream for cracked or split hands contains organic shea butter, cocoa butter, aloe vera and vitamin E - but it also has the addition of cold-pressed Egyptian black seed or black cumin oil which has powerful anti-inflammatory properties, together with healing calendula.

Foot Rub
A cooling, refreshing peppermint foot cream with arnica to help ease aching muscles. What could be nicer after a long, hard day?

Muscle Rub
Excellent for tired muscles, bruises, sprains, and stiffness, this is our base cream made with shea butter and organic almond oil, enriched with 10% arnica extract. Arnica is well known for its ability to help heal bruises and is now also thought to have preventive benefits - marathon runners sometimes use it before a race to support performance and reduce post-race muscle pain, sprains, stiffness, or swelling.

Natural Lip Balm
Gorgeous, nothing-but-natural, lip balm made with just organic shea butter, organic cocoa butter, beeswax & organic olive oil. No petroleum products to dry out your lips here!

If you have ever wondered how to join a class at the studio, you are not alone! We get asked this quite a bit, so here is a quick guide to how it all works.

Stroud Yoga Space is home to a wonderful range of independent yoga and Pilates teachers who rent the space from us. Because all of our teachers are self-employed, they handle their own bookings directly rather than through a central studio system.

Here is the simplest way to find and book a class:

🪷 Browse the timetable: Head to our website and click on Classes to view the full studio timetable.

🪷 Find a class: Click on any class that catches your eye to read a bit more about what to expect.

🪷 Connect with the teacher: On the class page, you will see the teacher’s profile. From there, you will find a direct link to their personal booking page, or an email address if they take bookings via message.

We look forward to welcoming you!

Despite how it may look from the top of the high street we are still open for business!

Nelson street will be closed weekdays until 13th August, between 930-330, for resurfacing but you can still access the studio on foot in both directions.

Some of our regular weekly classes are currently paused for August so do check the timetable and with teachers, rather than just turning up, if you're not sure.

With the intensity of the recent heat, Sunday’s restorative yoga class offers an opportunity to slow down and replenish. As cooler temperatures return, we will embrace a practice of rest, comfort, and gentle renewal.

Hot weather can sometimes leave us feeling depleted, restless, sluggish, or uncomfortable, with symptoms such as tiredness, disturbed sleep, heavy or swollen-feeling legs, headaches, or muscle tension and cramping. This gentle practice is designed to provide space for recovery and ease.

Supported by bolsters, blankets, and other props, you willl be guided into a series of nurturing poses held for longer periods, allowing the body to soften and the mind to become quiet. With very little physical effort required, this practice creates the conditions for deep relaxation and a welcome sense of spaciousness.

Restorative yoga can help ease feelings of fatigue and stress, encourage healthy circulation, support relaxation, and promote a greater sense of physical and mental wellbeing. Many people find they leave feeling calmer, more comfortable in their bodies, and better prepared for a restful night’s sleep.

These breathable cotton gauze tops are proving popular already!

Equally as perfect to throw over a yoga bra for a lightweight coverup, as it is to pair with some loose fitting trousers or shorts in this balmy weather.

Modelled here by our lovely client Becky, and available in Desert Dusk (cream) and Washed Khaki, which one's your favourite?

Ever wondered how Stroud Yoga Space came to be? 🌿

It all started back in 2012 with our founder, Rachel Mellish. Having taught yoga in the local area for nearly a decade at the time, Rachel had a vision to create a warm, welcoming, and light-filled sanctuary for movement and connection - a comfortable alternative to the chilly village halls of the past.

With a lot of love, imagination, and the help of her husband William, friends, and local craftspeople, they transformed what used to be an old pet shop into the vibrant yoga studio space we all enjoy today.

As the studio grew, so did the needs of our community. In 2016, we expanded to open Stroud Yoga Shop next door. Rachel wanted to create a helpful, supportive extension of the studio - a place where you can find thoughtfully curated, practical items like durable mats, props, and ethical yoga wear to support your practice, without any pressure or trend-led sales.

Alongside her 20+ years of yoga teaching, Rachel has also been a hairdresser for over 40 years! Today, she brings that same sense of care and undivided attention to her hairdressing clients right here at the studio on Wednesdays and Fridays. It’s a quiet, calm, and personal space where you can enjoy a relaxed atmosphere.

Whether you are stepping into a class for the very first time, picking up a prop or a new outfit, or booking in for a quiet haircut, Rachel’s original vision remains the same: to make everyone feel genuinely welcome, supported, and at home.

We are saying a final goodbye to the Ripple stonewashed collection.

For years, these stonewashed colours have been an absolute favourite among our studio community but a little while ago Ripple discontinued the stonewashed finish, meaning once our current stock is gone, these pieces will not be restocked.

We are down to the final few remaining items, with very limited sizes left across a selection of jumpsuits, long jumpsuits, capris, long bottoms, and our popular criss-cross and half-moon tops.

If you already own one and are looking for a backup, or if you’ve been thinking about investing in a practical, durable piece for your home or studio practice, you can browse what we have left both in our on-site shop and online.

You'll find the link in our bio to shop online, or pop in to see us in-person on Fridays 10am–4pm or Saturdays 9am–3pm.

We've tagged the remaining items for shopping on the second slide here, just click on the little shopping bag in the bottom left corner.
