Classes

Calm, accessible yoga in Slimbridge and Frampton on Severn: drop in when you need to, or join a steady weekly or monthly rhythm.

Yoga with me is calm, accessible, and grounded in real life. You don’t need to be flexible, strong, or experienced, just willing to meet yourself where you are. This page will help you understand what I offer, what to expect, and how to choose the option that feels right for you.

Drop-in options
For flexibility and ease. Perfect if you want to try things out, can only come occasionally, or prefer to choose week by week. Drop-in price: £14 for 60 minutes, or £20 for 90 minutes.

Book a drop-in

Regular Practice
For rhythm, steadiness and value. Ideal if you want a consistent routine.

Weekly classes run broadly in line with school terms and are booked as a termly block. Hour-long classes are £9.75 per class when you book the block, or £14 pay-as-you-go. PAYG places are available if there are unbooked spaces (maximum 12 per class).

Once the term has started, booking the block isn’t possible on the scheduler. However, if you want to pay for the whole term after it’s begun (including those classes you missed) get in touch and I can arrange that for you.

New term blocks will be available to book close to the end of the previous term.

Monthly Sunday Slow Flow classes are karma yoga: pay what you can/donate. To cover my costs there’s a suggested donation of £10, but there is no minimum and nobody will be turned away for lack of means to pay. Drop in with cash, or book to let me know you’re coming.

The classes

  • Mondays: Gentle Yoga, 6–7pm, Slimbridge
  • First Sunday of the month: Slow Flow Sundays, 10–11:30am, Frampton on Severn
  • Third Wednesday of the month: Yin/Restorative Yoga, 6:30–8pm, Frampton on Severn
  • Last Wednesday of the month: Ashtanga-Inspired Yoga, 6:30–8pm, Frampton on Severn

Gentle Yoga
A breath-led flow designed to increase strength and functional mobility, as well as reduce the effects of stress. Chairs are available, the venue is accessible, and I invite you to find the best variation for where you are on that particular day.

Slow Flow Sundays
A welcoming 90-minute session of slow, breath-led movement, with options for stronger or gentler variations. You have time to find the version of each pose that’s right for you. Each month includes breathwork, meditation or yang-to-yin, and we might use the extended format to dive a bit deeper into the practice, or to share a cup of tea and maybe a snack.
Karma yoga: pay as you feel, pay as you can. Suggested donation £10. No one is turned away, whatever your financial circumstances. You’re welcome to bring cash or make a transfer.

Yin/Restorative Yoga
A quiet pause in your month, a space to soften, breathe, and settle. Choose between Yin (long, gentle holds that invite you to meet the deeper layers of the body) or Restorative (fully supported shapes that encourage deep rest). Both are slow, spacious, and accessible. Each session includes a simple breath practice and a guided meditation or Yoga Nidra, to help your body and nervous system unwind. Come exactly as you are, with permission to rest.

Ashtanga-Inspired Yoga
A vigorous practice that invites focus, breath control, and strength: a moving meditation based on the Ashtanga Primary series. We flow through the same standing and seated sequence each time, then play with other poses from the wider Ashtanga series. It’s strong and fiery, for those who love a physical and mental challenge. Props are available. This class suits those with some yoga experience and a reasonable level of fitness.

My Approach

I teach yoga in a way that supports your whole self: body, breath, and nervous system. My classes are slow-paced, spacious, and adaptable, with plenty of options so you can move in a way that feels good for you.

You’re always welcome to rest, pause, or choose a variation that suits your energy. There’s no pressure to perform or keep up. This is a space to reconnect, soften, and feel supported.

What people say:

“Always come out of your sessions so refreshed, calm and ready to tackle anything yet very relaxed. Love how you demonstrate, discreetly keep an eye on us all and offer variations so nicely.”

Practicalities

What to wear. Anything comfortable that you can move in: leggings, joggers, pyjama bottoms. Layers are useful to keep you at the right temperature.

What to bring. A yoga mat if you have one. I have spares if you don’t, plus blocks and straps to make the poses more accessible. You’re welcome to bring a blanket or cushion for comfort, especially for Yin/Restorative classes, and in winter, as some venues can be chilly.

Arriving. Especially for your first class, it’s a good idea to arrive about 10 minutes before the start time if you can. If you’re running late, just let me know and I’ll set up a mat for you. Arriving early gives you time to use the loo, settle in, and ask any questions.

Before you come. Please tell me about any medical conditions (physical or mental), injuries. This is also needed for insurance. I’m not a qualified pregnancy yoga teacher, so I can’t adapt classes specifically for pregnancy. If you’re pregnant and would like to come to a class, please let me know beforehand and check with your midwife or GP that a general class is suitable for you. I’ll offer options, and you’re always welcome to rest or choose a variation that feels right.

Cancellations: Term blocks are non-refundable. Other bookings may be cancelled or rescheduled in line with the terms and conditions laid out on on my Bookings and Policies page, and my scheduling page.

Scroll through the gallery to see moments from my own practice and teaching – yoga in real life:
  • Cerian is lying on the floor in a pose of rest, with a cushion under her head and a bolster under her knees
    Savasana, the resting pose, is arguably the most important pose of any practice.
  • Meditation and pranayama (breathwork and more) are important parts of my yoga practice. We use the poses to allow us to sit comfortably to meditate.
  • Cerian sits on a chair with her feet on blocks and uses a strap to access this forward fold
    A variation of Paschimotanasana/ seated forward fold. Using props to make the pose work for different bodies.
  • Cerian stands on one foot in a variation of Tree pose, with one hand on a chair back to help with balance
    Tree pose/ Vrkasana, using a chair to help with balance.
  • Warrior 2 pose/ Virabhadrasana 2. A strong standing pose.
  • Playing with tripod headstand at the gym. I enjoy a strong physical practice, but poses like Headstand don’t tend to appear in my group classes because they’re not accessible to most people. I do explore this type of pose in workshops, and in my monthly Ashtanga-inspired class.
  • Summer yoga in the park
  • Yoga in the park
  • Having a go at SUP yoga- as a student not a teacher- a whole different level of challenge!
  • Warrior 1/ Virabhadrasana 1 in the wild
  • Trikonasana in the wild!
  • Practising Crow pose, having a pile of cushions can remove the element of fear that you’ll faceplant!
  • One-legged Downward Facing Dog/Eka Pada Adho Mukha Svanasana. Taking any opportunity to play with different asana!
  • I still like to have a wall nearby for my headstand!
  • Crow pose/bakasana practised in the wild 😉 A stronger pose which takes some practice (I’m still working on holding mine)!
  • Working with Gloucestershire Libraries to offer community yoga for all ages in libraries around the county
  • Working towards Astavakrasana/8-angle pose
