Over the last year I took a facilitator training with Jamie Catto to improve my skills in working with groups and emotional process work. Spending every Tuesday afternoon on Zoom for three hours was quite challenging, but it gave me a new set of tools for helping people explore their inner worlds. Which is more […]
I haven’t been teaching so many retreats recently. Partly because I wanted to focus on yoga in the local community. Partly because I’ve been busier with storytelling work. But it can be so helpful to step out of time and into retreat space, recognising that the inner journey is as important as – and perhaps […]
What stops you doing the things you want to do, achieving what you want to achieve, going where you want to go? Sometimes it’s the judge within, “No! You aren’t good enough, ready enough, smart enough, thin enough! You’re wrong, you’re a failure, you can’t do it!” Often we are so mean to ourselves: we […]

As a yoga teacher I notice many people are limited in their movements around their pelvis. And indeed, many people complain of having stiff hips. But I don’t believe this stuckness is irreversible.

Use your breath and this sequence of postures to help feel and release any tension you may be carrying around your shoulders. You will need a yoga mat (or a blanket). You might need a […]
The “Mysteries of the Sacrum and Tailbone” workshop is happening Saturday 15th July 10am-midday on Zoom (replay available if you can’t make it live). The workshop will be all about Don’t worry, you don’t need to have done loads of yoga to enjoy it or to get the benefit of this session, and beginners to […]
It’s taken me a few weeks to get organised, but I’ve now taught four classes outdoors. There’s a different vibe to practicing yoga outdoors. You’re not looking at a ceiling when you look up. You’re not lying on a flat surface. It feels so good to be balancing on the grass, breathing the fresh air, […]
