In Yoga this week we’re exploring Dṛṣṭi—the way we look. Not simply what we see, but how* we see. If we get curious enough, could the ‘same old’ surprise you?

In Pilates: STRONG PA, we’re heading into a New Movement Block—H. Over the next 4 weeks we’ll be progressing new movement patterns across our loaded and strength sessions. Week 1, we set the groundwork!

I heard something recently that made me reflect on Winter differently. A tree grows in two directions at once. Its roots follow gravity into the earth: positive gravitropism—while its shoots grow away from gravity and towards light: negative gravitropism and phototropism. One movement anchors, the other reaches. The roots provide stability and access to water and nutrients; the branches reach for light, allowing the tree to grow. Neither exists without the other. 🌳

Maybe we’re not so different. There are seasons for reaching out, and seasons for turning in. And sometimes, like the tree, we grow down first before reaching for light. ✨

The upcoming New Moon (Aug. 13) arrives in Leo—turning us towards the heart, towards courage, creativity, vitality, and the parts of us that want to be expressed. In Vedic Astrology, it falls in Ashlesha Nakshatra: the serpent—instinctive, perceptive, shedding what it has outgrown.

There’s something fitting in these two meeting here. We’re invited to express outwardly, but first loosening what has held us too tightly. Because we can’t move freely into what’s next while still carrying what we’ve outgrown. 🏋️‍♀️

This week in Yoga, we’ll move through this process together—unwinding what’s tightened and releasing what we no longer need. Let’s make a little more room for what comes next. In Pilates, we’re in our last week of Movement Block G for my STRONG humans, and working a new set of exercises across Mat classes.

This week's full moon (30 July) is held in Mūla Nakshatra, symbolised by a bundle of roots. 🌕

Roots don't rush toward the light. They move quietly through the unseen, weaving around stone and soil, finding what will nourish and sustain them. 🌱

Perhaps our practice can meet us there.

Rather than reaching for change, we might simply become curious about what lies beneath the surface. The habits that steady us. The stories we've inherited. The patterns we've quietly outgrown. Not to judge them, nor to uproot them before they're ready, but to know the ground from which we are growing.

The full moon has long been a symbol of illumination. This week, may it offer just enough light to see a little more clearly—not further ahead, but a little deeper within.

Finding clarity at the root.

This week’s New Moon (July 14) falls in Punarvasu Nakshatra: its name translated to “becoming good again" or “the return of the light." It offers a quiet but radical perspective: wholeness isn't something we earn — it is something we recover.

In our Yoga practice this week, we’ll gather our attention, breath, and energy with intention. We’ll tap back into the clarity that comes when we return to what has remained steady beneath the surface.

Across Pilates, we’re working a new training block (G) and classes rotate on the timetable at STRONG PA. 💥

everyone says, “find yourself.” i'm more interested in helping people lose the version of themselves that ends at their skin. your lungs kiss forests with every breath. your heart reaches farther than your hands. your bones were built from exploded stars. tell me again where you think "you" end. i'll wait. | words by christopher sexton

As we move through the final week of our Pilates block and into another week of Yoga—I'm thinking about integration rather than accumulation. Winter invites us to slow down, refine, and trust what's already been cultivated. Whether we're expressing the strength we've built over the past four weeks or finding softness within effort on the mat; there’s an invitation to move with greater awareness. Loosening what isn't needed and recognising that growth isn't always about becoming more, but about uncovering or appreciating what has been there all along. Join me for a class:

🌕 There’s a Full Moon this week (June 29–30) and as it rises she’s a quiet turning point.

In Western astrology it sits in Capricorn—a cold, clear light that presses on structure, responsibility, and the parts of life that must hold weight over time. It’s the question of what is solid enough to build your future on, and what is quietly failing under its own effort.

In Vedic astrology, this Moon is in Sagittarius: Purva Ashadha nakshatra—the ‘unbeatable waters’. Here the symbolism shifts inward: not escape, but cleansing—where hesitation and distortion are gradually stripped away, until only what you truly stand for remains.

Capricorn shows the mountain and Purva Ashadha highlights the tide that keeps carving it true.
