ABOUT MY APPROACH

Restorative Yoga Meets Somatic Movement

Slow, Gentle & Nervous-System Informed Movement for Everyday Life

My approach to movement is slow, gentle & deeply restorative. We step away from high-intensity physical workouts to focus entirely on nervous system regulation, somatic tension release & the profound, transformative power of deep rest for bodies carrying daily stress.

Somatic Movement & Tension Release – Releasing Stored Body Stress & Restoring Physical Ease

Unlike traditional postural yoga, somatic movement focuses on how movement feels from the inside out. Through slow, conscious, and self-honouring movements, we gently release chronic tension stored in the shoulders, neck, back & hips from work stress, caregiving, desk posture, or physical strain. By tuning into subtle body sensations, you re-educate your nervous system to soften physical holding patterns, improve mobility, and restore natural physical ease.

Great For: Releasing chronic muscle tightness, easing joint stiffness, supporting postural alignment, and calming physical stress.

We Use: Slow somatic movement, unhurried floor postures, gentle breath awareness & sensory essential oil anchoring.

The Power of Conscious Stillness – Restoring the Body’s Natural Balance

True restoration requires stepping away from doing & sinking completely into being. Offering a combination of slow mindful Yin postures with long, fully supported Restorative Yoga holds & guided Yoga Nidra, our classes target the deeper connective tissues while signaling complete safety to your nervous system. Supported by bolsters and blankets, you surrender physical effort – allowing stored exhaustion to melt away and leaving your mind calm, grounded & deeply refreshed.

Great For: Mental exhaustion, nervous system burnout, deep connective tissue release, sleep support & relieving cognitive overload.

We Use: Long-held floor postures fully supported Restorative set-ups of bolsters and blankets, guided Yoga Nidra & quiet candlelit atmospheres.

1:1 & COACHING

Private one-to-one, group or family therapeutic yoga sessions are suitable for all ages & abilities… and these sessions are all about you!

My intention in these sessions is to help you connect with the tools & techniques that best address your specific needs. From building confidence with starting (or returning) to group classes, to working with pain, chronic conditions or trauma. Drawing on the healing arts of yoga, somatic movement, massage & aromatherapy, private yoga sessions can also focus on creating an achievable self-care routine to support your healing process (& that you can use at home between sessions).

A bespoke combination of private 1-to-1 & group classes can also be created to support you holistically.
