A friendly, accessible yoga class for everybody—from complete beginners to more seasoned yogis. There's no need to be pretzel-flexible or Instagram picture-perfect here. Free from judgement and competition, this is a space for like-minded people to come together and enjoy yoga for what it is: a practice.

Yoga meets you where you are. It's not about getting everything right; it's about showing up and giving it a go. Imperfection is often a sign that you're challenging yourself, learning and growing. My classes offer a gentle, down-to-earth environment where you can connect, breathe and move towards feeling more whole, more at ease, and happier—more of the time.

Each session has a theme to provide focus and intention, while still allowing space for flow, exploration and personal progression. You'll always be offered options and adjustments, so whether you're looking to build strength, improve mobility or simply move in a way that feels good, the practice can be adapted to suit you.

What Type of Yoga?
These classes blend breathwork (pranayama), movement (asana) and relaxation (savasana), drawing inspiration from both Hatha and Kundalini yoga traditions.

Together, these practices create a balanced experience: flowing movement to improve mobility and help you feel more connected to your body, alongside opportunities to build strength and gentle heat at your own pace. Breathwork and relaxation are woven throughout to encourage mindful awareness and support a calmer, more regulated nervous system.

Every class is designed as a journey, helping you leave feeling lighter, more grounded, more relaxed, and more at home in your body.

A nurturing, restorative session for anyone who needs some dedicated, structured time to truly relax and let go. Whether you're well practised or feel the need to relearn what it means to rest deeply, this class offers a welcoming, calm and distraction-free space to simply be.
No previous experience or special skills are needed—just a willingness to experience the many benefits of deep rest and relaxation.

This calming practice asks very little of you beyond lying comfortably still, breathing naturally and listening. Blankets, pillows and comfortable clothing are highly encouraged, snoring and tummy gurgles are absolutely welcome!

Gentle music and tailored verbal guidance support your awareness as you journey towards that wonderful state somewhere between wakefulness and sleep. It is here that your mind, body and nervous system can begin to process, restore, heal and regenerate.

This style of practice is known as NSDR (Non-Sleep Deep Rest) and shares many principles with Yoga Nidra, as well as the yogic practice of Pratyahara, often described as a gentle withdrawal of the senses. Growing scientific research suggests that NSDR practices can support improved mental and physical wellbeing by promoting deep relaxation and recovery.

My classes weave together elements of breathwork, Yoga Nidra (including Sankalpa, or personal intention), guided visualisation and focused attention. Together, these practices help settle the mind, activate the parasympathetic nervous system—our natural "rest and digest" response—and quiet the stress-driven activity of the sympathetic nervous system. In doing so, they invite your mind to "close its open tabs," leaving you feeling calmer, more focused, emotionally balanced and better equipped to move through daily life with clarity and ease.

Grounded, down-to-earth and accessible, this practice is deceptively simple. It asks very little, yet offers something many of us are missing: a genuine opportunity to pause, deeply rest and step away from the constant demands of modern life. In return, you'll often discover a greater sense of balance, resilience, stable mood and overall wellbeing that extends far beyond the class itself.
