Two Ways to Build Strength, Ease and Resilience
Evidence-informed strength training and yoga to support joint health, nervous-system regulation, and healthy ageing in women.
.
I offer two distinct types of classes, each supporting strength, mobility and resilience in different ways.
You can choose Scaravelli-inspired yoga to support ease, awareness and nervous-system regulation, or strength-focused training to build muscle mass, stability and confidence - or combine both for a well-rounded practice.

Breath-led movement for ease, awareness and nervous-system regulation
These yoga classes are inspired by the work of Vanda Scaravelli and emphasise listening, adaptability and the intelligent use of breath and gravity.
Rather than fixed shapes or performance, we explore how movement can create space, softness and support in the body – helping regulate the nervous system and reduce unnecessary tension.
What people experience:
• A calmer, more responsive nervous system
• Improved joint mobility and spinal ease
• Less pain and holding, more freedom of movement
• A practice that adapts to how you feel on the day
These classes may include elements of strength, but their primary focus is awareness, coordination, breath and regulation, not muscle-building.

Minehead Yoga Classes
Accessible yoga for everyone
I teach yoga which offers a fresh and truly accessible approach to yoga. Each class follows a theme which evolves from my personal research and explorations, building and developing from the material we covered in the previous week.
Although I’d love to see you regularly and there are definite benefits from consistent attendance, I always take time to carefully explain the focus and what we’re doing in each movement, so you'll always understand what and why we are practicing.
Classes generally follow a similar structure – we begin lying on the floor, to breathe and settle, before gradually building into stronger or more challenging practices and then dropping back down into Savasana to rest at the end.
