We will go far in yoga class together if these sound good to you 😎🌟

Don’t be intimidated by my biceps 😆 my classes are slow, steady & inward focused. Although we do get to have a laugh, usually a wobble (often from me) and occasionally test moving towards headstand or arm balance- we always try moving towards ourselves.

🕯️🌟🕯️🌟🕯️🌟🕯️🌟🕯️🌟🕯️🌟

🎄The festive season is almost here and I’ve got a couple of LOOOOVELY slow, calming 90min pop ups coming to help you avoid festive burnout. 🥰

Unwind, pause & relax ☯️
5pm Sunday 14th Dec

Calm & reset 🕉️
5pm Sunday 21st Dec

Eye pillows FTW! 🙌🏼 here is a science backed explanation for why they’re so good to use in a relaxing part of your practice.

Practice with me this week. The theme for classes is “moving inward” - and finding a deeper relaxation where our energy rests is just perfect.

I still have 1 space available for 1-1s if you’d like a more personalised practice. Enquire directly for that one.

Montage of the knee journey so far 🦵🏼🤟🏼
(It’s my right knee, some photos are in the mirror and some aren’t)

1. 2023, no acl for 8 years, bit skinny, using a sleeve for pretty much everything
2. 2024, no longer skinny, no apparent problems, no day to day concerns, but no acl for 9 years. Ps that’s a lolly in my mouth not a cigarette!!!
3. March 2025, a few weeks post meniscus injury, feeling pretty sorry for myself
4. April 2025, rehabbing the meniscus injury.
5. August 2025, super strong but still having problems from meniscus injury.
6. A day or so before surgery. Almost wondering if it was a good idea. But honestly still having issues with the knee (I also fell off a climbing wall at some point that day and it reminded me that I can’t really trust the leg)
7. A few days post ACL reconstruction surgery
8. A couple of weeks post surgery
9. Around a month post surgery
10. 8 weeks post surgery
11. Today! It’s feeling good and I’m getting there with the rehab and strengthening.

⏸️ pause your responsibilities and find some me time during the festive season this year 🎄

This is the first of 2 pop ups I’m running in December at the Yoga Space.

You’ll be invited into inner space with mindful yin postures, supported with gentle props, before being floated off onto the sea of rest with guided yoga nidra relaxation.

The perfect time out & pick me up for a busy festive schedule.

The Yin style of practice helps us to move inwards 🔄☯️

On a world where outwards is the main direction of our focus and most of our senses are taken up with seeing, hearing and feeling what’s around us (and reacting to it), taking time to move inside can be at a real premium.

As we move inside we get to know ourselves even better. We notice our inner sensations, comforts and discomforts, emotions and needs.
Yin is still an “active” practice even when the body is still.

The better we get to know our inner world, the more calmly and confidently we operate in the outside world.

Come yin with me every Friday evening at the yoga space in Horsforth.

I also lead yin 1-1s and private classes. Let me tailor the practice to your needs.

If I had to only pick 3 BENEFITS of moving inwards in our yoga practice, this would be them.

A slow, mindful, inner-focused practice is a wonderful way to support yourself through stress and life challenges, as well as to maintain a strong connection to your inner self to build resilience during your normal daily life.

The SLEEP benefit is HUGE, as without a good foundation of sleep we will struggle to thrive in the medium and long term (and some of us even in the short term 🫩)

Moving inwards is a particular focus in my yoga classes this November.

Come practice with me at the yoga space on Fridays and Sundays.

Book at theyogaspace.co.uk

For 1-1s in Horsforth, Leeds or online book at liquidyoga.co.uk
We can build a tailored practice around your needs 🫡

Oh yes and PLEASE EXCUSE the bangs and snaps of firework night in the background here 🫣 there was not getting away from them!

Props to everyone just surviving this November the 5th 😱💥

It’s not a very nice “celebration” if you consider it as Guy Fawkes night.

On the other hand I can appreciate a good fire festival, but the scale of the noise and pollution on nov 5th in uk cities is literally terrifying.

I’ll be hiding until it’s over! Luckily George doesn’t seem bothered 🐢 (benefits of tortoise parenting) but sending my love out to all the pets who are scared tonight 🥺

Moving inwards with the breath 🌊

Simple breath techniques are really powerful for reconnecting us with our calm inner selves.

We are literally focusing on the movement of energy (breath, oxygen) into the body which is extremely calming -especially if you are an anxious type. 😅🙋🏼‍♀️

Anxiety, worry and stress cause our energy to go outwards (constant thinking about the past, the future, other people’s opinions and reactions) so by bringing energy back in and creating space for it with a slow steady breath, we redress the balance.

Come and practice with me in class this week.

Thursday- hatha in Alwoodley 6pm at the ACA
Friday- Yin 5.30pm at the Yoga Soace in Horsforth
Sunday- hatha 9.30am at the Yoga Space in Horsforth

On your own schedule- online or in person tailored 1-1. Let me guide you into your very own practice and help you use the techniques that suit just where you are at.

⚡️Yes folks I have completed a 20hr training with .rishi via and it has been an absolute pleasure 🙏🏼

Although I have practiced yoga nidra for the best part of 25 years now I have learned a lot on this training and developed my own practice.

Working with nidra is a tremendous gateway into settling the nervous system and (re)training the subconscious mind. The training has really brought this home to me.

Gosh I have done much work there over the years on myself.
From anxiety and depression and ED in my teens & 20s to a much better & healthier place now. Yoga overall but also Nidra has played a key part.

I have written a lot before about how Sankalpa has been a catalyst along my path of yoga practice & teaching, not to mention other creative things in my life. This is notwithstanding that many times I am using Sankalpa in yoga nidra.

Yoga Nidra itself is an important component of my practice and will continue 🙏🏼✨

This has also made me more determined to bring the powerful practice of yoga Nidra to more people, so watch this space (and my website, YouTube & insight timer) for content & courses.

Moving into a more reflective practice as we get into November 🍁

The days are much darker now and the world around us grows cold. It’s a good time to get cosy in our practice and feel our inner world.

Mudra, mantra and pranayama are still here but they help us to focus inwards.

We find our inner stillness and light which helps to nourish us through the darker days.

Physically we still focus on strengthening the body but we can dial it down a bit to gather in our energy.

Look forward to seeing you in class.

It’s spooky season 💀 have you noticed the darkness recently?

🧟‍♂️Yes we all have things that we don’t like about ourselves, that we find difficult and even downright reject.

In a culture that often leads us to mask our true feelings, challenges and “fake it until you make it” we can end up just burying the issues 🪦

🌚 Shadows grow in the darkness and we can end up feeling more like a fading ghost than a solid person if we can’t acknowledge parts of our own feelings & experiences 👻

Mindful yoga practice may provide a space for us to begin to explore the more difficult side of ourselves. Where we can take time to actually observe what’s coming up without having to immediately do anything with it.

Join me for yoga this spooky season.

Thursdays in Alwoodley - book at liquidyoga.co.uk
