Classes & Workshops

 

I am a compassionate and insightful yoga teacher with nearly 20 year’s experience and I have taught many styles of yoga during this time. I currently specialise in Restorative and Yin. I am passionate about supporting female health and work a lot with women in menopause.

Over my many years of study and teaching I have seen and found how beneficial slowing down the mind and body can be, combined with regular meditation. It can have a profound effect on our wellbeing and long term health.

Along with my work with adults I also teach teenagers. Having my own teenagers and seeing the world that surrounds them in this 21st century I feel more than ever they need extra holistic support. I provide a space at Moon for them to have fun, share and really rest their minds with a combination of simple yoga postures and mindfulness meditation. It is such a joy to see how much they can get from our sessions.

Throughout my sessions at Moon with adults and children, I like to create a nurturing and supportive environment teaching with warmth and empathy.

As well as teaching weekly classes at Moon I also offer a unique and invaluable service as a Menopause Doula. Working closely with women in midlife, I provide personalised support to help navigate the challenges of this intricate phase of life. I create a safe space for women to share their experiences and help them embark on this transformative journey.

Alongside my 1-1 work in the menopause world, I also offer workshops with a menopause specialist GP at Moon throughout the year.

Three upcoming sessions to support you in returning to Your Self, as we slowly descend into Winter... On Thursday evening, Desiree Diaz holds sacred space at the New Moon Women’s Healing & Meditation Circle. You will experience feeling heard and seen as you set your intentions for the month - focusing on manifesting the life that you want and connecting with other women to help your manifestation become even stronger. On Saturday afternoon, Daven Lee leads us in Awakening Desire & Receiving Pleasure - an on experiential afternoon workshop, inviting you to gently reconnect with your desires and expand your ability to receive. Through guided practices, playful exploration, and supportive inquiry, you’ll begin to dissolve the fears and resistances that keep you from claiming what you truly long for. On Wednesday evening, Jasmine St Cliere and Sophie Webb guide us in a Winter Acupuncture & Sound Bath. This session blends the ancient healing practices of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the vibrational medicine of crystal singing bowls, gongs, and other sacred instruments. You can find more details and book via the link in our bio.

On Wednesday we had a brilliant Instagram Live chat with Tracy Awere from The Sankofa Birth Experience. We spoke about her offerings at Moon and beyond, including her Pregnancy Relaxation Retreats (next one this Sunday! - With 2026 dates also now available), as well as her weekly YogaBirth sessions and 1-2-1 hypnobirthing and birth preparation sessions. All of which, at their core, focus on your 'power within'. Tracy's work has recently received recognition from Future Camden Fund. This has allowed her to offer subsidised and no-cost places with all her offerings - contact Tracy to find out more. We also spoke about the most recent attack on the world of maternity care and support, led by a recent Times article by Jeremy Hunt (more on our thoughts about this shortly). It was a brilliant chat - BUT - technology failed us and the session would not upload to Instagram once we'd finished 😭😭😭 So if you'd like to find out more about Tracy, including her Pregnancy Relaxation Retreats then follow the link in our bio or check out Tracy's IG page.

💙 Beat the Blues this Monday 💙 The Acupuncture Collective Appointments available 2pm - 8pm (last few spots left) Monday 10th November SAD, otherwise known as seasonal affective disorder, can hit hard, as the clocks turn back in October, and the daylight fades...   What is SAD? MIND, the mental health organisation, describe SAD's symptoms as difficulty in concentrating, feeling sad, guilty or hopeless, being more prone to illnesses such as colds and infections, sleeping too long or too little and changes in hunger or sexual interest.   It is a reaction to seasonal changes in daylight, which disrupts our body clock and hormones like serotonin, which affect mood, appetite and sleep. 🌟 But here’s the good news 🌟   Acupuncture is the answer to our hormonal prayers! It helps regulate our nervous system, calming us down or energising us, depending on which points around the body are focused on. It also helps boost serotonin and melatonin, which boost our mood and help us sleep.    We can also use acupuncture to strengthen our immune system, by using points on the Lung Meridian and tonify what the ancient Chinese called Wei Qi! Go on… Google it! All that and the loving embrace of our warm, friendly group clinic...   See you on 10th November... Find out more and book via the link in our bio.
