It's hard to imagine this day has come!

I taught my last class for a little while yesterday whilst I take some time out to nurture myself and my growing baby.

Thank you to everyone who has attended class with me, I hope to see you when I return to teaching.

In the meantime, look after yourselves and keep taking time out for yourself 💚

January post of ❤️ to you all

I always struggle with January; the ending of the festive season, dark, cold and rainy days. It can feel a bit gloomy to me as someone who gravitates towards summer, sunshine and being on the go!

However January is the perfect time to draw inward, relax and recouperate. So commiting to my yoga practice (particularly that with ) has been very helpful in reminding me of this.

This post is to wish you all a comforting and restful January 🙏

Merry Christmas and an early Happy New Year to you all!

I will be back on the mat with you all for 6 weeks starting Saturday 6th January until Saturday 10th February, which will be my final class before I go on maternity leave!

It will be lovely to see you all, and maybe some new faces in the new year. As much as I LOVE Christmas, I look forward to getting back to my normal routine including yoga classes!

Hi all! I enjoyed a wonderful family holiday last week to Centre Parcs. In the midst of all the activities, I stopped for some forest yoga by the lake. Hope you're all enjoying the sunshine ☀️

Absolutely recommend! X

Hey Mama, how you getting on?
New motherhood can be so demanding and also very lonely, sometimes it can feel like Groundhog Day and it’s hard being needed 24/7. Mostly our days are good and I’m enjoying the cuddles and coping with 2 kids, but I had forgotten how relentless it is at this age!

So if you’re a new mum, I’m asking you…what do you need most right now?

If I sit with that question, lots of things come up, but I think mostly it’s ‘support’. Whatever form that takes, I need to be supported so I can have enough energy to continue providing for my family. For me, chatting to a friend may feel supportive, someone taking the baby for a sling sleep, dinner being provided! It’s also time, so I can get away for an hour a week to do some yoga or movement just for me. I find if I get little bits of support, I can keep going, even on days when it feels like I’m just keeping my head above the water!

We can all support each other on this crazy new mum journey, so I’ve been keen to figure out a format for some postnatal classes that I can offer with Jasper. But babies are so unpredictable that I’m not sure I can promise an hour of mum and baby yoga! I don’t want to put too much extra pressure on myself at the moment but I know there is some way to make it work.

so……..

I’ve decided to trial hosting a Mother’s Circle, an opportunity to be together, with a few discussion points, maybe some movement, guided relaxation, breathing, baby yoga, (always tea and cake), whatever feels most needed on the day. This will be a really nourishing space to support for new mums and their babies, whether the little one is asleep, feeding, or screaming their darling little head off!

The first one is on 9th June at 11am in Wickham and I’d love to see you there! Spaces are limited but please do spread the word with other mum friends. The first one is a bit of an experiment if it’s successful I will run more :)

Come and be together and let’s create our village to support one another.

With much love

I always feel so happy after teaching Saturday morning class 🧘

Physical yoga practice is deeply connected to our mind state and I always enjoy interweaving teachings that help deepen the mind- body connection into class 💛

I also love the shared experience of yoga; the coming together to take some much needed time for ourselves to refill our cup at the end of the week.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend!
