?♀️Right now I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON HOLIDAY, hanging out with storytellers, listening to stories and ‘getting lost in the labyrinth’ of some ancient story cycles with one of my favourite storytellers, Shonaleigh.?But, like so much this year, that wonderful event has been pushed back to 2021. ?In fact EVERY SINGLE ONE of the fun festivals, […]
Today’s experiment in doing yoga outdoors once again features a cockerel crowing in the background. He turned up after someone abandoned him a box by the side of the road. He’s believed to be a grey silkie and is very well mannered for a cockerel. Want to find out about my YouTube postings? Here’s the […]
Why? Because… too much time sitting, too much time slumping, not to mention too much time scrolling! We evolved to move. But if you spend 8+ hours a day immobile in a chair it’s no wonder you end up feeling stiff and lethargic. I know. I spent a decade working in offices and sitting at […]

THERE IS ONLY ONE PATH UP THE MOUNTAIN (so not true) The first time I trained to teach yoga there was an ongoing “DIFFERENCE OF OPINION” between the two course leaders. They each followed different philosophies of yoga and insisted on different ways of aligning yoga, which was deeply confusing as a student. There was […]
I’M NOT THIN ENOUGH // BENDY ENOUGH // VEGAN ENOUGH TO DO YOGA When I was in my twenties I knew I would end up teaching. I didn’t know what. Because I didn’t know much about anything at that age. ?? And now two decades later I am teaching yoga. And training other people to […]
