Interested in Thai yoga massage training?

Traditional Thai Massage, or Thai Yoga Massage, is a unique and powerful healing art that has been an integral part of traditional Thai medicine for thousands of years.

Thai massage blends elements of acupressure, yoga, reflexology, physiotherapy, meditation, energy healing and Ayurveda.

The course that I run is a fully recognised professional course that is run over several months in Olney, Bucks. Working in small groups of 4 - 8 people.

I work on the basis that when I have 4 people interested I arrange the course dates to suit then, and then advertise out a few more spots.

Looking to run an Autumn course if there is enough interest for this.

Comment below or PM me 🙏

For the past few months Tuesday afternoons for me are spent in the gym of the physio department at Wellingborough hospital.

This is the ACL recovery class. I am usually 20 (if not 30) years older than anyone else there (although I am pleased to report I can out-plank all of them!)

They really put me through my paces and I leave very red-faced, sweaty and achy.

This week - to my horror - we were doing football skills!!!!!!!

Needless to say, the Lionesses will not be calling anytime soon......

**9 night Thailand Retreat January 2025**

Due to a cancellation I have 1 room left for my retreat in Thailand in January 2025 (this could be a single or twin/double room)

Away from the hustle and bustle and set on an organic farm and wellness retreat centre in the lush north of Thailand, we will have 9 amazing nights here.

As well as our 2 long daily yoga sessions there is the meditation platform over the lake, swimming pool, spa with treatment rooms, steam room and thermal plunge pool, even a gym if you are feeling energetic! (You even get 2 massages included in the price).

The food here is just amazing, with 3 meals a day, much of which is grown on site (you can tour the farm).

In addition we have trips out to local temples and markets, or you can hop on a bike and explore locally.

Optional add on for 3 day trek at the end of the retreat.

Are you coming?

It was so special to host a yoga, wild swimming and walking retreat day today, with such a lovely bunch.

I have no pictures of us doing any of these things as I was too busy connecting, sharing and being in the moment.

Instead I have some food pictures and how insane my hair looks after a swim!

Due to a couple of cancellations I have some space left for a lovely yoga and wild swimming day this Sunday (14th July).

This is a full morning of yoga, lunch, rural walk and swim and ending with homemade cakes and tea 🍰

Yoga and Wild Swimming Retreat Day - Sunday 14th July.

Just a couple of spaces left for this full day of yoga and swimming.

Our day starts at 9.45am with an extra long yoga session - a smorgasbord of meditation, slow flow, pranayama, yin and relaxation. (We will have a tea break!)

We will then have a delicious and healthy lunch from 12.45 - 1.30pm. After lunch we will stroll through the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside (and gently digest) before arriving at our beautiful swimming venue.

After our swimming we will meander back to the hall, possibly stopping at the local deli for a mooch and enjoy tea and cake before heading home (home made Victoria Sponge will definitely be on the menu!)

Our day will finish around 5.15pm with you feeling relaxed, refreshed and revitalised.

I've just got home today after nearly 3 weeks in France 🥰

As soon as I walk through the door here (and set eyes on the lake), I feel at home.

And when my lovely students arrive we feel like a family as we share a week of yoga, playing at the lake, exploring local French delights - and of course sampling lovely local food.

So many wonderful moments and memories with 2 fantastic groups over the last couple of weeks - I miss you all already!

And....I am already planning for 2025. If you want to be on the first to know list let me know!

Yoga and Wild Swimming day - last few places

One last swim before I head home as I wait for the dishwasher to finish 🏊‍♀️🥰

The end of an era.......

Last night I shared a joyous and slightly rowdy Graduation with this lovely bunch! 🥳

We celebrated, laughed, shared food and memories and had an impromptu kirtan session lead by Meena (thank you).
I am so proud and honoured to have shared the journey of Teacher Training with them, they have been amazing.

This Graduation was particularly poignant as after 12 years and 14 cohorts of 200 hour Teacher Training at Whitespace, it was my last.

I will miss spending so much of my time in the lovely Studio 2 at Whitespace!

New adventures, opportunities and ideas are calling me.

There have been so many amazing trainees (now teachers) over the years - every group different but all special. I am grateful to you all

Watch this space.........I hope to have some exciting news very soon!
(if you know, you know 😉)

Had the most wonderful day today supporting other yoga teachers in their self care, and sharing in a likeminded community.

A reminder that the givers, carers and healers of this world need to take time out for themselves as well.

Heartfelt thanks to those that came ❤️🙏
