Sea Within Yoga and Pilates

18/06/2026

I hope you are enjoying the long evenings as we approach the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year, this Sunday June 21st🌞.

In Irish, the Summer Solstice is known as Grianstad an tSamhraidh, meaning "the sun stop of summer." It occurs at a single moment each year—this year at 09:24am, which happens to fit nicely with our practice time 😊—when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted at its maximum towards the sun.

I love to mark this time of year as an opportunity to reflect on the first half of the year and welcome the second half, as the days gradually begin to shorten once again.

To celebrate the Summer Solstice and begin the longest day of the year, I am planning a Sunday morning beach yoga practice in Maharees, followed by an optional sauna, sea dip, treats and fresh ginger, orange and lemon homemade tea. The forecast is currently looking beautiful, so let's hope it stays that way! 🙏🌞

We will begin with a morning meditation, followed by energising Sun Salutations and a gentle morning flow, before bringing balance to the practice with some blissful Yin poses to finish.

🧘 Yoga: 9:00–10:00am (10€)
🔥 Optional Sauna: 10:30–11:00am BrandonbaySauna
Followed by sea dip, herbal tea and treats and chats afterwards. (25€)

Please let me know if you would like to join for yoga and/or stay for the sauna afterwards.

Thank you 🙏💛

🌞 Summer has arrived 🌞

For June, I will be doing yoga classes on Mondays at *7pm* in the club rooms, Castlegregory.

Dates: June 8, 15, 22, 29

For the 4 weeks, I will be planning a Core Flow Series where, each week, we will build on a sequence from the week before. By week 4 we will be flowing through it with ease, strength and clarity 🧘🏼‍♀️😌

There will be some pilates fused into the practice and, as always, some breathwork and restoration at the end.

Please send me a message if you would like to book a space or if you have any questions.

I will also be holding pop-up beach yoga and pilates practices throughout the summer. These will be weather dependent so I will post here whenever the conditions line up. And hopefully this will happen again for my Summer solstice practice plans! 🙏🌞🌊

I will be holding a Yoga & Sauna morning with Brandon Bay Sauna for Castlegregory summer festival on July 12th with all proceeds going to Doctors without Borders/MSF and will post about this closer to the time🙏

Thank you and enjoy the bank holiday weekend😌

Stacy 🙏 💛

On Easter weekend, I held my third retreat with the most gorgeous group of people. It takes me at least a week or two to process all that unfolds in a retreat. All the energy and love poured in to settle and regenerate.

The word that kept coming to mind after the weekend was:

C O N N E C T I O N.

To deepen the connection to ourselves first and foremost.

To enable true, authentic connections to be forged with others.

To connect more deeply to our environment and nature and all that's around us.

Every thing and every being is connected and how we move through the world depends on how we allow this connection to be forged ✨

Yoga means union or connection of the mind, body and spirit and I think this retreat embodied the practice in so many ways. Besides our asana practice, we all came together as a community (of mostly strangers) and carried and created a space of healing and learning through our physical and spiritual practices, in an open, calm and safe environment.

There is so much disconnect in the world today and I believe it is healing, transformative and necessary to allow ourselves the space to connect to ourselves again. It is also reassuring to be surrounded by like-minded people who make you believe in the good there is still to be found in the world. And in a world of technology, wars, and destruction of our environment, it is more important than ever to re-establish our connection with Mother Nature, absorb the wisdom she has to teach us and protect her at all costs.

Even if you can't attend retreats, this is a really important thing to remember. When you allow yourself the space to release, reset and recalibrate, the effects spill out into the world around you ✨

Huge love to all the people without whose contributions wouldn't have made this retreat feel as special as it did;

Thank you to all my gorgeous attendees for putting your trust in me and making the energy so comfortable and supportive. As one guest put it, “ We entered as strangers and left as friends” 🥹❤️

“Ní neart go cur le chéile- there is no strength without coming together “ .

Le grá, Stacy 🙏🕊️💚✌️

🌊✨ 2 Spaces Left – Spring Yoga Retreat | West Kerry | April 4–6 ✨🌊

There are just two spaces remaining for my upcoming Spring Retreat on the Di**le Peninsula in beautiful Smerwick — and I would love to fill them with two more wonderful souls 🌿

Hosted at Di**le Peninsula and nestled along the coastline in Smerwick, this intimate weekend retreat is all about slowing down, reconnecting and gently welcoming the new season.

Spring is a time of renewal and soft awakening — a chance to clear out the old and plant fresh intentions. This weekend is your invitation to step away from the busy pace of life and immerse yourself in nature, nourishing food, deep rest and soulful movement.

What’s Included:
🧘‍♀️ Morning & evening yoga (Vinyasa fusion, Hatha, Yin, Restorative, Breathwork & Meditation) – all levels welcome
🌿 Foraging hedgerow walk & herbal workshop
🥗 Nourishing vegetarian meals all weekend
🌊 Private beach access for sea swims & coastal walks
🔥 Daily sauna sessions with sea dips
💆‍♀️ Optional massage treatments
🛏 Beautiful accommodation at Atlantic Bay Rest
Arrival Saturday afternoon | Late checkout Monday after brunch

This retreat is intentionally small and intimate — a space to connect, rest and simply be. All activities are optional, so you can truly listen to what your body and heart need.

💫 Investment €450

If you’ve been feeling the call for a spring reset by the sea, this could be your sign 🌊🌱
Please send me a message to book or with any questions — I’d love to hear from you ❤️🙏

✨ Reconnect ~ Release ~ Restore ~ Relax ✨

Join me for a special Sunday morning practice of Yin yoga, followed by a sauna session with a nourishing tea and treat for afterwards.

When: Sunday March 1st

When: 9- 11am

Where: Yoga at Castlegregory club rooms @ 9-10am followed by a Sauna in the Maharees @10:30-11am

🧘‍♀️Our Yin practice:

Yin yoga is an invitation to bring balance to our fast-paced lives. By holding poses in stillness and gently finding our edge, we improve flexibility, support joint health, and release deep layers of tension stored in the fascia.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, these areas are mapped along meridians — pathways that describe how the body connects and communicates. Whether you understand them as energy lines or connective tissue networks, Yin yoga works gently along these channels to support mobility, circulation, emotional release, and a calm, steady mind.

In a “Yang”-centric world, the real challenge is often to simply be still. Through long, quiet holds, we create space — not only in the body, but perhaps even more importantly, in the mind.

🌊🔥From there, we will make our way down to the sauna for a sea dip/ cold shower/cold plunge at *10:30* am .

☕I will have some lovely hot spiced ginger tea and a treat waiting for afterwards, where we can sit and enjoy the beautiful surrounds. Please bring a reusable cup to save our environment♻️

Open to all, no experience necessary.

**Yoga only also an option* *

Investment: 25euro.

Limited numbers, please message me to book your space.

I look forward to guiding you this Sunday 🙏❤️
