EXPLORE - TRANSFORM - BREATH - MOVE
During this transformational retreat, we will focus on releasing negative energy that gets stuck in our bodies and reconnect with our true authentic selves.
Our intension will be to open ourselves up to release blocked negative energies, so we can get to see who we truly are and what we really want in our lives, which can enrich them and make our lives just that little bit easier. Releasing stress, tension, anxiety and depression. Helping to restore sleeping patterns and giving us a more balanced way to live our lives.
We will be shifting learnt repetitive behaviour through yoga, meditation, mindful breathing (Pranayama) ready for you to open up to go through life in a much more balanced and authentic natural way.
In this beautiful setting in The Hope Valley, you will have the chance to take that well earned break from your busy life, to focus on what feels good for you, to then be able to take it back home to your everyday lives and live in a balanced calmer way.
Did you know that your thoughts are not facts and it is liberating to be able to see that your thoughts are just thoughts and that they are not 'you' or 'reality'
This weekend will also help you to recognise the minds mental chatter and show you different techniques of how to slow it down and find spaces in between, so that you can live in the present without constantly living in the past or worrying about what has not even happened yet in the future, giving you a much more balanced calmer approach to life, which in turn, takes away anxiety and restores balance. Giving you a quieter clearer mind, helping you to make better choices for yourself and in time becoming a happier, healthier person.
It is within you to choose new thoughts and experiences that will make a difference to your lives.
This retreat is available to all levels and capabilities. All you need is to bring yourself with an open heart and mind. You will connect with other members in the group, where you will find it comfortable to open up in the same yoga journey and find support where you will be able to grow and expand in a safe, happy, loving environment.
We guarantee that it will be a weekend full of love, life, laughter and hugs a plenty, if you want them! All taking place in the beautiful Hope Valley, surrounded by nature.

About the Yoga
Our yoga for the retreat in Derbyshire will be held in an indoor studio.
​
Each class is designed to the energetic needs of the group and this is reflected in the overall pace and rhythm of your yoga. The level and dynamics are in harmony with the participants and modifications will be given for all levels and abilities, the time of day and the activities enjoyed that day.
​
I am a strong believer in all levels taking there practice together as this enables us all to enjoy the same practice but to shape it to suit your personal needs an requirements. Whether you want your practice to be bold and powerful or maybe more flowing and calm, depending on how each of us is feeling at that time on our mats.
​
We are all unique in so many different ways and this should be reflected on how we turn up for ourselves on our mats each time.
​
​
About the Food

and allergies.
