Details Spring Energy Reset series:
Step into spring feeling lighter, stronger and more energised. This April Spring Energy Reset Yogalates series guides you to tune in physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually to regain a sense of calm, balance and true strength from the inside out.
The classes blend yoga and Pilates to build strength, improve mobility and ease tension. You will move with more freedom while deepening your awareness of energy, supporting nervous system regulation and restoring inner balance.
You will be guided to feel more in tune with your body, gently support healing or navigate hormonal shifts, while regaining a natural sense of flow and ease. Thoughtfully designed to support real life, this is your space to reset, reconnect and move forward with clarity, courage and confidence.
FAQ:
Could the classes help me with Pain, stress, peri / menopause, Fatigue, strength or a chronic diagnosis?
Whilst the classes alone are not intended to diagnose or treat specific conditions, they can be very helpful if you’re feeling exhausted, stiff, tense or stressed, living with pain such as headaches or back pain, recovering from injury or prone to niggles.
They can also support those with ongoing chronic inflammation, old injuries or scar tissue, digestive or hormonal challenges or anyone wanting a sustainable performance boost in sport or work. Or you simply wish to invest in your longevity and health span.
The approach is simple: we work with the body rather than against it, restoring flexibility, balance, strength and resilience in a way that feels steady and supportive. Which in turn often allows or supports the body to heal itself.
For diagnosis or specific treatment you are advised to reach out for a private physiotherapy or holistic coaching assessment. After which the classes can often compliment your treatment plan.

Methods used
Yogalates is a unique blend of yoga and pilates which I’ve developed and taught over the last 25 years to offer the benefits of both disciplines. Yoga more for the flexibility, pilates more for the stability. There is actually a huge overlap between the 2 methods which both aim to integrate the body, mind and soul. Yet there are some fundamental differences in the philosophies too. Together they compliment one another beautifully, hence why I love to combine them to offer a practical, functional, efficient yet spiritual practice. If you’re looking to balance and strengthen the body, settle stress / anxiety or an overactive mind as well as replenish the soul, it’s well worth a try!
The classes also include breath work, meditation, functional exercise and other science based wellbeing and performance tips to keep you fit, healthy, injury free and happy. Some techniques also help regulate the nervous system which is immensely important in our fast paced world, as well as to restore the body after trauma.
Vinyasa Yoga is a type of yoga where postures link and flow. My classes are highly modified as required for each individual, including those with pain. Great for flexibility, clearing the mind and getting to know oneself at a deeper level.
Pilates matwork is excellent for core stability, enhancing sports performance (especially running), pelvic floor strength, posture, back pain, post natal and injury rehabilitation. The APPI method is used, a method developed by physical therapists hence is adapted and wonderful for rehabilitation of all injuries and most chronic pain - especially back and neck pain.
Functional exercise is much underrated and often missed in exercise programmes. As creatures of habit most adults tend to favour one gym class, yoga method or a specific sport like cycling or jogging, which is great because most movement is. However, it isn’t necessarily optimal. Maintaining a wide range of functional movement IS optimal, just like children do. This might include crouching, skipping, bursts of higher intensity (HIT) or weighted exercise - all as appropriate for your level.
Coaching in areas such as maintaining a healthy mindset and managing emotions or anxiety, deep healing, understanding hormones and nutrition foundations are touched upon in the classes to help educate and empower you to get the most out of your amazing body, mind and life.
Yoga Nidra is a gentle method designed to calm stress in the body, mind and soul. It involves gentle movement, breathwork and meditation. It can involve props such as pillows and can be adapted for most levels.
Physiotherapy: the classes include certain physiotherapy exercises / tips which cross over with the stretching found in yoga and the stabilisation work found in pilates.
All experiences have the overall aim of helping optimise and fuel the body, mind and soul
Including the body’s flexibility, strength, stability and fitness, and are bespoke to those attending. They aim to help you be intentional about the sustainable habit shifts required to feel the way you want to feel. Some classes can be adapted to facilitate injury recovery and prevention, pre-natal and post natal care, weight loss, stress and anxiety reduction, sporting performance, dis-ease prevention and longevity.
Perhaps most importantly, all experiences are designed to deepen the connection with oneself
To facilitate the connection with our intuition and a deep sense of self, purpose, confidence and inner peace.
