Common Questions

Yes, classes are small (up to eight people, or ten for Gong Baths) so they fill up. Book through the booking page. If you're nervous about your first class, email me. I'm always happy to chat beforehand.

Anywhere on the street. No restrictions, just don't block neighbours' driveways.

Look for the signage in the driveway. When the gate is open, walk down the side to find the studio at the end of the garden.

No need to explain. Just use the link in your booking confirmation email to transfer to another class or cancel. The system makes it easy.

Light snack is fine up to an hour before. Heavy meal? Give it 2-3 hours or you'll regret it during forward bends.

Comfortable clothes you can move in. We practise barefoot, so bring socks for the relaxation bit. I have mats, blocks, blankets, everything you need. Just bring yourself.

Stop right there. If you're stressed, stiff, sceptical, or think yoga is just for people who already have their lives sorted, you're exactly who I teach. I don't want perfect people in perfect poses. I want real humans dealing with real life.

Perfect. I love beginners because you haven't learned to overthink it yet. Everyone starts somewhere, and I'll make sure you feel welcome, not lost.

We do chant Om. It's optional, just helps everyone remember we're not here to compete. I don't say Namaste and definitely don't expect anyone to bow. Sometimes I'll share a poem if it fits the moment, but I'm not recruiting for a cult. I might mention chakras or yoga philosophy, but I always tell people to take what works and leave the rest. I question everything. You should too.

Not really. If you want crystals and angel cards, you're probably in the wrong place. I also host sound healing sessions with gongs, which some might consider "out there", but it's more about deep rest than mystical experiences. Check the current timetable for dates.

However often feels right for you. Some people come once a week, others twice, some pop in when life gets overwhelming. There's no perfect schedule. Just what works for your life.

Probably, yes. When you book you'll be asked a few questions about your health, and there are no wrong answers that get you turned away. If something needs a chat, I'll email you before class; otherwise I'll see you there and guide you through any modifications you need for injuries, lower back issues, and the rest. I'm trained in somatic movement and work with bodies that need adaptations. Yoga can often help, but I'm not a doctor. Always check with yours first if you have serious concerns.

There's no such thing as typical because I work with whatever energy is in the room. But we always start by settling in and noticing where you're at today. We move slowly, breathe consciously, and end with deep relaxation. You'll leave feeling more human than when you arrived.

Excellent. Your body is finally getting what it needs. I take it as a compliment.

Only if you want me to, and only to make you more comfortable or safer, never to make you "look better." I always ask permission first.

I host sessions with Tibetan bowls, drums, and gongs. You just lie there and receive. No yoga experience needed. It's sound and rest when you need to lie down without having to do anything. Check the current timetable for dates.

Come anyway. Some of my best classes happen when people drag themselves in feeling like rubbish and leave feeling human again.
