Join Gina and Lilli (acupuncturist) for a special edition Monthly Reset ahead of their Elemental Retreat in Cornwall in May. This will be a seasonal workshop blending Yin Yoga with The Five Elements, with the main focus on Spring and the Wood Element. There will be gentle body movement, passive Yin postures and a Yoga Nidra to rest and rejuvenate.

Yin Yoga is a slow, meditative practice that targets deep connective tissues, joints, and fascia through long-held (3-5 minutes), passive poses. This encourages stillness and mindfulness, helps to increase flexibility, release tension, and cultivate inner calm.

Yoga Nidrā (translated from Sanskrit meaning yogic sleep) is a guided deep relaxation practice of conscious rest that leads you into a state between sleep and awareness. A deeply restorative practice, it calms the mind and nervous system, and releases stress.

Monthly extended Ashtanga Mysore assisted self-practices with Andy.

These 3 hour spaces are an opportunity to work in a small group, 1-1 with your teacher.

The sessions start with guided breathing, then Andy will lead you through the standing postures, before leaving you to explore your own practice with his guidance and assistance.

Handstands, Arm Balances & Headstands Workshop

Handstands are truly magical — they are expansive, fun, empowering ,challenging and so much more! Handstands and arm balances build strength and stability in the arms, shoulders, and upper body, while turning our world upside down in ways that stimulate the nervous system, expand awareness, and challenge what we believe is possible. Their energetic counterpart, headstands, offer a more grounding, inward pathway toward meditation and relaxation.

We are delighted to announce that Andy will be teaching a workshop exploring handstands, arm balances, and headstands. In this workshop he will be paying special attention to shoulder anatomy, safe technique, and supportive exercises to build strength, balance, and confidence — wherever you’re starting from.

This autumn, we're delighted to welcome back the renowned Norman Blair for an extended afternoon Yin Yoga Workshop. This will be an opportunity to explore a deeply restorative practice under expert guidance (expect a good sense of humour, too!)

Norman has been practicing yoga since the early 1990s and started teaching in 2001. He has years of experience in teaching Yin yoga and weaves into this wonderful practice his own background of Ashtanga yoga and Buddha-Dharma meditation to create a potent mix that is soothing, grounding and inspiring. He sees yoga as a beautiful way of being, which will enhance your life, welcome you back to your body, release habitual tension and encourage a greater focus and quality of mind.

He has trained with teachers such as Hamish Hendry, Judith Lasater, Richard Freeman, Alaric Newcombe and Sarah Powers. His approach is about enabling accessibility, encouraging acceptance and deepening awareness. He recently published Brightening Our Inner Skies: Yin and Yoga.

This is a 3 hour workshop to explore the experiences of perimenopause and menopause in a safe space and the company of other people experiencing this life transition.
In this workshop we will focus specifically on how we can keep ourselves strong, empowered and supported during this transition. We lose bone density and muscle mass during this time so keeping ourselves active becomes more important. We will do a yoga practice to support this theme, and have the opportunity to share our experiences, and learn from each other in a welcoming and supportive space.

All equipment and refreshments provided. 

All welcome, regardless of yoga experience. 

Transgender and non-binary folk also welcome.
