“The Yoga for Healthy Backs Workshop was just terrific. I was anxious as I am new to yoga but the instruction was clear and any adjustments were made gently and kindly. I got so much out of it and enjoyed it as well. A miracle!!”

It’s the perfect time to reset and refresh, embracing practices that detoxify the body and mind. Harnessing the benefits of heat and cold, this workshop is designed to invigorate your system and leave you feeling renewed.
Becky Lennox and I will guide you during this 2-hour session. The plan is to start with some breathwork, then a dynamic Hot Yoga (circa 30 degrees) class of flowing movement. Gradually slowing down to a few longer held poses until eventually holding some seated postures for the Yin Yoga. We then step into the garden for a cold plunge (circa 10 degrees) and end with a detox shot of something delicious and a warming cup of chai tea.
All levels welcome.

Do you feel unsure about how to support pregnant students in your regular classes—without disrupting the flow for others?
With so many yoga students being women, it’s likely you’ll teach someone who’s pregnant at some point. This workshop is designed to help you feel confident, clear, and inclusive in your approach.
You’ll learn what to do, what to avoid, and how to make simple, effective modifications that empower pregnant students while keeping your class cohesive.
What you’ll cover:
Key physiological and hormonal changes in pregnancy
The benefits of yoga during pregnancy
Trimester-specific contraindications
How to modify common poses safely
Pranayama: what’s supportive vs. what’s not
Use of props and inclusive language
Keeping the class flowing for everyone
Common pregnancy ailments and when to refer on
Note: This training won’t certify you to teach pregnancy-specific yoga classes. It’s designed to help you safely include and support pregnant students in your general teaching.

Why do a workshop?
A workshop provides ample opportunity to delve deeper, giving space and time for exploration. They are designed to elevate your practice and enhance your well-being. Unlike regular classes, workshops provide a focused, immersive experience, exploring specific themes and techniques.
Discover personalized guidance, connect with like-minded individuals, and deepen your practice in a supportive environment. Whether you're a beginner seeking strong foundations or an experienced yogi craving growth, my workshops offer unparalleled insights and transformative moments and are great fun!
Embracing the wisdom of “two heads are better than one”. I also like to collaborate with guest yoga teachers. Our collective expertise offers a blend of perspectives and knowledge, enriching your experience.
If you’d like to request a particular topic or would like me to organise a workshop for you, please email me.
“Great heated room & for doing yoga in perfect conditions. Session went quickly, varied with strong poses, but help was at hand and some yin. The plunge ice pool was tough, but really does work. Very welcomed refreshments after. I slept so well that night. Many tx”
“A quick note to say how much I enjoyed the Hips Workshop on Saturday. The class flowed well with many areas covered in a short space of time and the class whizzed by; a sign of my engagement and enjoyment.
I felt the combination of moves/poses and activities was well put together and the teaching superb. The contrast of the two teachers offered variety and created a fun, professional environment. Two instructors sharing their expertise clearly and with obvious enjoyment of their profession, they offered an excellent combination of styles which I thoroughly enjoyed.
A wonderful two hours spent with Sandra and Joshua.
Well done, I can’t wait for the next one!!”
