New Yoga course starting in Wilmslow from June

By | Blog | No Comments

I’m going to be starting a 10 week hatha yoga course from June. Each week you will try out different postures, as well as picking up breathing techniques, ways to achieve a quieter mind and time to enjoy a short relaxation. It’s fine if you’re an absolute beginner or already further along on your yoga journey.
The classes will be taking place on a Wednesday morning from 10-11am in Wilmslow at Dean Row Village Hall. This is a truly lovely place to do yoga! It’s centrally heated with lots of natural light and a calming ambience.

Each session costs £7 to drop in on the day, or you can book your place for the full 10 week course for just £50.

Extend summer 2013 with a Yoga & Pilates holiday in Italy

By | Events | 2 Comments

This wonderful week long retreat will take place at Shanticentre, in the Abruzzo region of Italy, 29 September-6 October.

The holiday will include accommodation, homemade vegetarian food (apart from one night where we will go to a local restaurant), use of the centre’s private swimming pool, hot tub and sauna plus 10 yoga and pilates lessons taught by myself, and an excursion to Atri (a medieval town) and to the beach.

This is all for the reasonable cost of £595 per person (a single supplement applies if you want a room to yourself) which also includes a direct taxi transfer back to Rome airport. I’m keeping it to a small exclusive group (8 people max). I am taking bookings now (desposit of £150 required). Please do get in touch quickly if you would like to join us: email  [email protected]
