Welcome to Oakwood Yoga

Namaste and wishing you are very warm welcome to these pages.  I really hope you find something of interest, do have a good browse, if you need any help, please get in touch.  

My website is undergoing some changes…it has taken me a long time to get round to doing this!  Massive thanks to Sarah of Banks Business Solutions for doing all the hard work behind the scenes…as I don’t have a clue.  But I hope it is even more user friendly and helpful.

 

What a beautiful sunrise this morning as I quickly update…time for a quick walk before class.  Our theme this month is around resiliency and for me, apart from yoga, I find being outside either walking or gardening so helps keep me grounded and gives me the energy to do what is needed.  Along side this, which I discovered years ago when I was training, is that a regular meditation practice is also so so helpful.  This month our meditation practice is Ajapa Japa.  If this is new to you please consider joining us…it is a wonderful practice.

Key Dates

1st April…no classes this week

Our next Walk for Nepal is on 27th April … let me know if you would like to join in so that I can keep you informed of start place and time.

My next workshop is 28th April – Working with Element of Fire.  For this workshop I will be joined by my wonderful friend Kathy Field…we are working through all the elements.  Kathy is a Dru Yoga teacher but we complement one another really well.

Holiday in Nepal 2024…I have two trips planned for Nepal again this autumn if anyone would like to join me.  We will do a historical tour for two weeks with a mini trek, and there will be a three week trek to Makalu Base Camp with Nick and I.  Let me know if you are interested and I will send all the details.

If you have never been to one of my classes before, please complete the Oakwood Yoga Health Form and EMAIL it to me prior to joining a class.  When I receive it I will send you the payment methods…please pay prior to class.  If you are a new student we also need to arrange a 15 min call.  

‘Not causing harm requires staying awake. Part of being awake is slowing down enough to notice what we say and do. The more we witness our emotional chain reactions and understand how they work, the easier it is to refrain. It becomes a way of life to stay awake, slow down, and notice.’
~ Pema Chodron

Nepal Update

Not exactly the tree you would see in Nepal but I love coastal redwoods as much as I love Nepal.  One day I will get to see the real big ones…hopefully.
I will be bringing an update soon…as I am off to the village.  So excited to be seeing everyone again!

Huge thanks for your continued support.  It makes such a massive difference.

Classes

Teaching yoga is a huge priviledge, and I strongly believe in the benefits to our overall well being. What I love as well is that yoga does not discriminate.  No matter what level your experience, how well or poorly you are, yoga is available to us all.

I offer group classes and 121 sessions. 

Resources

This section is all about sharing things we do in class or on retreat or through our masterclass work. There will be recordings from time to time as well. Feel free to share…just let people know where it came from!
