…was a great success! Thanks to everyone who came down to the village hall to spend the afternoon with Julia and I. If you missed this workshop, we were looking at the core muscles, exploring uddiyana bandha through yoga asanas and pranayama and how to work up to some of the more challenging yoga postures through the pilates method. We focused on a few key balances, including bakasana (crane pose) – and saw some fantastic balances including side crane!

Dean Row Village Hall is a truly lovely little venue, very rustic and cosy, light and airy. It was described by one of our yoginis as something out of Beatrix Potter! The next workshop will be at the same venue on 23rd June – this time we will be exploring postures that release the spine, using a fusion of pilates and yoga. This workshop will be slightly longer, and as usual we’ll be providing a variety of tea and biscuits to keep us well fuelled!

Please get in touch if you would like to book.

Just a quick note to say that all classes are back on! Check out my timetable for details of locations and times. Hope to see you on the mat soon,

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.

If you fancy practising yoga and pilates outside in the sunshine and chilling out in the beautiful Abruzzo countryside, please get in touch as soon as possible.

Wishing everyone a lovely Easter – and just a reminder that there won’t be any classes scheduled next week apart from Yoga at Cavendish Rd Primary School in West Didsbury which is on Wednesday 7.30-9pm.

I now have just four places left on my week long yoga and pilates retreat at Shanticentre in Italy, 29 September to 6 October. I don’t know about you but I can’t wait to get some sunlight on my face again! Let me know if you want to book a place on this very special holiday – you will find more details in the events section on this site and at shanticentre.com

Thanks to all who came along to the Sivananda workshop this weekend. It was great to meet you all, and the perfect day to do yoga, when it’s cold and snowy outside! I hope to see you again soon at the next workshop, which will be Saturday 27th April at Dean Row Village Hall in Wilmslow. More details of this are in the events section of the website.
