Hi everyone. I wanted to share this delightful little festival with you. I'll be teaching two Amerta movement workshops. It's at the end of this month, at An Sanctoir, in southwest Ireland, where MAM was held last year. There are lots of great facilitators offering workshops based on many different disciplines, all sharing our love of the land and nature-based embodiment practices. It would be wonderful if any of you felt drawn to join us! More info here:

Your next Yoga and Hiking holiday - a week in sunny Spain next October!
Fancy a week staying in a lovely villa, set in a farm with ancient olives, fruit trees, tropical gardens and a pool? Daily morning Yoga, followed by substantial home-cooked brunch, after this the time is yours - relax by the pool, book a massage, stroll into town or join me for a hike in the hills- with different routes and distances over the week - explore at your own pace!
As ever, I try to keep my events affordable - 7 days, brunch and Yoga, all for 480euro - Pretty good deal, I reckon!

This month’s image is of a beautiful rock that I encountered during a recent walk on on of my favourite beaches next to Roaring Water Bay here in southwest Ireland.

Hi everyone. A couple of spaces have opened up for art therapy, yoga therapy and movement clients in my practice near ballydehob. I take a holistic, trauma-informed and client-centred approach informed by 30 years experience as a facilitator and 14 years working as a therapist. I am passionate about offering a healing, empowering and safe space where we can work together using the unique toolkit of practices and techniques that I have gathered over the past 36 years. These are the tools I use to steer myself through life, they are tried and tested, and shared with a high professional standard, alongside heart and integrity. If you'd like a no obligation chat with me please do get in touch. I work with all ages and offer a sliding scale for payment for those who are in receipt of benefits/unwaged.
