We are pleased to announce that we've updated our gift cards to make it more accessible, offering more choice for recipients too 💛
Our old physical vouchers had our original studio address on, so it was time for a change. But the world has moved on too over the past 8 years, so we're now offering digital gift cards - easy to purchase, easy to send (choose whether to email or text it to the recipient) and easy to redeem.
If you're lucky enough to receive one of our brand new gift cards, you can use it in full or part payment for your choice of yoga class, a treatment or a product in our online or studio shop. Or of course a combination of them all!
I've written more about how to purchase and how to redeem on the blog, and I've popped a purchase link in our bio too.
Any questions just ask - I'll be happy to help!

One thing I always wanted at our first studio in Wye was a proper entrance with space for clients to sit down to take off their shoes, space to store their shoes without them becoming a trip hazard - in short, a proper, welcoming entrance area.
So when we moved to our lovely new space in Hinxhill, a lovely entrance with shoe storage was near the top of my wish list ✨
Any hey presto, as if by magic - or actually, a LOT of hard work over the summer 😜 - I have all of this lovely space, a bench with shoe storage underneath and proper shelves to display some yoga and goodies too 🧡
Want to join us for a class or treatment? A blue bottle sampling / pamper event? Or a nice browse in the shop?
Get in touch - I'd love to see you!

Y O G A 🍃
I've been able to spend a bit of time doing my own yoga and meditation practice in my new studio space over the past couple of days, together with a lovely class earlier today 🧡
This quiet time has shown me just how happy I am to be able to offer yoga classes once more, after a longer than anticipated break.
After burning some incense in here yesterday too, it smells like a yoga studio too now! 😂
Looking forward to welcoming lots of people into this lovely quiet space for a bit of downtime in the busy lives we all lead.
Dru yoga, pregnancy yoga and gentle breathwork, movement and relaxation classes available to book now for Thursdays and Fridays.

I'm not sure where the summer has gone, but a lot of it has been spent working at our new space, making it beautiful for our clients 💛
We are getting there! The wooden floor is almost complete, I'm on the second coat of paint on the walls - at least on one side of the room - and things are starting to take shape.
There is still quite a lot of work to do though! We should be opening at the end of September, and as soon as a start date is certain I'll open up the booking links for yoga, reflexology and more - I can't wait!
In the meantime, we are also working on the studio in Wye, ready to hand over next month. The treatment room is currently useable and the main room will be up and running again by the end of next week. So if you want to book in earlier in September, let me know and I'll see what I can do!

I started my journey into complementary therapies when I decided to train in reflexology after a period of ill-health, way back in 1995. A little later I came across Jin Shin Jyutsu finger holds in a Hand Reflexology text book and very soon after added that to my business. Around the same time I had begun practising yoga on a daily basis and came across Dru yoga, and started my 4 year training in North Wales in 2001 (although it ended up taking a little longer than 4 years as my son was born shortly before I would have completed my training so I took a bit of time out). Luckily I had already passed my initial teaching assessment so began teaching with a huge bump - and also did my Birthlight perinatal and postnatal training during my pregnancy too.
In the early years I didn’t have a business name as such, and it was only when I finally caught up with technology and launched my website that Sunfish Yoga and Therapy was born. I’m often asked ‘Why Sunfish?’ and it just came to me on a sleepless night shortly before my website was due to go live without a name! I was playing around in my mind with names of yoga practices and how they might work for the name - and Sunfish was born - a combination of Sun salutations (Surya namaskara being the Sanskrit name) and the gorgeous fish pose, both of which are enduring favourites of mine.
My first logo was also born in that same evening, as I sat and drew my ideas by hand - it wasn’t very professional, but it did the job for a year or two before I had my new logo professionally designed.
In 2017, after many years working as a mobile therapist and teaching my classes in church and village halls, and more than 20 years in my business, I opened my own studio in Wye. The Sunfish Yoga and Therapy studio in Church Street Wye is a dream come true....a calm and welcoming space in which to teach my classes and offer relaxing wellbeing treatments for my clients. I personally teach Dru yoga classes, suitable for all, prenatal and postnatal yoga classes for mums to be and new mums with their babies, and offer reflexology (feet, hands, ears, and facial options available) and Jin Shin Jyutsu in my tranquil treatment room. As the studio develops and the team has grown, we continue to offer more services - and in 2018 we have added Baby Massage Classes and Nutrition Consultations.
I am also a NYR Organic Independent Consultant, and use gorgeous organic products from Neal’s Yard Remedies in treatments and yoga classes, as well as having a range of products available for purchase or sampling. I am also planning a range of themed workshops combining therapies and yoga techniques with relevant products later this year.
Do get in touch if you have any questions, follow my page and visit my website for more information. I look forward to meeting you soon!
