Starting Monday 7th September at Weeley Village Hall 6pm to 7pm, the first class is FREE.

Join me for some slow-paced gentle Hatha yoga.  We will break down sun salutations - no standing on your head or trying to be a pretzel.

This class is suitable for beginners, those returning to yoga after a break or if you love a slower paced practice. There will be blocks and props available - we can even use chairs to raise the ground and make the postures more available.

We will start where you are with your practice.

There is plenty of parking available - so just bring yourself a mat and maybe a blanket - (I do have a couple of brand new mats you can borrow if you just want to give it a go without splashing out on a mat)

Message me to book or ask me questions.

I'd love to see you there and start a practice together.

Based on Ayurvedic principles this tea is a powerful infusion to help relieve joint pain. Tendonitis, bursitis, RSI.

I recently had an SI joint flare up and didn't want to take ibuprofen so I drank this tea 4 x a day for a few days and the pain and inflammation healed. (Along with some gentle stretches)

I drink it every day now to ease aches.

1 tbsp freshly chopped ginger
1 - 1½ tspn turmeric powder
1 cup boiling water
Raw honey to taste

Add boiling water to the ginger and turmeric and steep for 10 mins. Add raw honey to taste.

If you are using it to manage inflammation drink 4 x cups a day

Ginger and turmeric are powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatories as well as helping with gut health and skin radiance.

I added a green teabag for added antioxidants. Anti-inflammatory and boosted immune function as well as it's many other benefits.

Add the raw honey after 10 mins as the heat will destroy it's healing properties.

For extra efficacy it's best to reduce inflammatory foods in your diet also. Eg. Seed oils, processed food etc.

Try it and let me know how you get on 🌻

Have you wanted to try yoga but think you aren't flexible or bendy enough?

Don't feel you have the energy?

Come to a practice that meets you where you are each time you practice.

Menopause brings physical, emotional and hormonal shifts - and your practice should meet you right where you are.  These classes are designed with slow, gentle movement, accessible pranayama (breathwork) and restorative guided meditation to release tension, ease anxiety, improve sleep and support your changing body with care and compassion, and importantly - creating space to reconnect to yourself.

Together we will practice forms to help build strength and balance without overwhelming your body - the focus is on how it feels and not how it looks so you can skip a pose and lie down if that's what you need in that moment.

Mats and props are provided so come as you are and wear whatever you feel comfortable in. There is no need to buy special 'yoga clothes'.

Come and join our friendly chair yoga group every Monday in Weeley Village Hall.  We practice gentle stretches, explore balance in the chair and standing with or without chair support depending on how you are feeling on the day.

It's my birthday in September so the first class on 7th is free to people who already practice with me and to those of you wanting to give it a go.

We enjoy a cuppa, biscuits and a chat afterwards which you are welcome to stay for or leave at 5pm if you have another commitment.

Please message me or call to book or ask questions.  Queries welcome from caregivers or children on behalf of your parents/people you look after.

There is SO much going on at the studio this September…

We’re welcoming Sober Curious for the first of our workshops - a chance to look at why alcohol can start to feel different in midlife, your habits around drinking and what drinking less might look like for you, complete with an alcohol-free tasting bar.

Tunde is back with Yoga Trance Dance, Gail’s Earth Yoga continues every Wednesday, and there are two chances to experience one of Tracey’s Gong Sound Baths.

Rebellious Rest and Feel Good Friday are both back with me too.

And I’m planning something a little extra for our free Menopause Drop-In on the third Saturday of the month…

As well as being able to pop in, ask questions and have a look around, I’m hoping to add some free mini tasters of Rebellious Rest and Feel Good Friday so you can actually experience what the sessions are like before booking one.

More details on that very soon.

So if you’ve been meaning to come along but haven’t quite made it through the door yet, September could be a very good time to change that.

Take a look at what’s coming up and see what you fancy.

Booking for all studio sessions is through the website ... you’ll find the link in my bio but I'll add to comments too...
