Relaxation therapy
Are you someone who finds it difficult to relax? If you think this is just you, or that you've always been like this, I can help you to find a better way.
As we come across stressful situations in our lives, perhaps before we are ready to deal with them, we can put them aside and move on. But we remain subtly primed for similar situations, and this conditioning builds our stress levels to the point where it can suppress the immune system.
If you have ever scheduled time off work or gone away on holiday, just to come down with a cold or feel too tired to do anything, ...

Overwhelm? 5 steps towards re-balance.
Are you overwhelmed? Are you interested in a FREE ten minute meditation you can listen to, to help you re-connect and gain perpective? Read on... Sometimes we all have 'off' days. Sometimes it lasts longer than that. Something just doesn't feel quite right and we reach a state of overwhelm... our mind doesn't want to stop thinking, and ironically it stops our thoughts from being clear. Energy levels drop and lethargy and procrastination win us over.
But we must keep going! It's not as simple as retreating into our shell until we recover... There is work to do, maybe ...
Doing yoga
So, you might ask what does 'doing yoga' consist of? What do we actually do within a class? As a beginner, will I be able to 'do it' at all? Perhaps you have been to many yoga classes, or done many home videos. Why is dynamic yoga any different?
In dynamic yoga we use repetitive actions to awaken the deep sensitivity within the body; to be open to sensation as it happens and to lengthen and broaden the body, creating space and openness within the bodymind. There shouldn't be any expectations, although flexibility and strength often occur as a natural by-product of this ...
Daytime yoga classes
We are currently looking for a venue in Allestree. If you know of a large warm room to hire please contact me

Dynamic yoga is a deeply sensitising practise which brings awareness to the relationship between the body parts as you move gently between postures. All postures are easily adaptable, and the focus is on what you can feel rather than what you can do (or what the mind thinks you can do).
These classes are suitable for any age and any body. Variations are always provided. Anyone ...
