Kinda chic, that's all 💅🏻

Inspired by Spider-Man and Yoga Jo in a Van for this fun little Spider-Man challenge!!

A lot more difficult than I anticipated but will always jump at the chance to pretend being Spider-Man!!

Who else is gonna give wall crawling a go?!

Patience and Time

When we hurt, nothing happens quickly and so we need both to move forwards. Anxieties and emotions will rise up, Be patient with yourself, give yourself the time to do what is necessary for you and before long you'll realise how strong you are.

I think this may be the first non yoga related post on the grid but it absolutely deserves a space because I've just closed one of the best chapters of my life after 6 months

Britney Spears you unhinged fierce little boho. What a week it's been. I've fallen in love with the craziest and most hilarious character I've ever had the absolute joy playing!

Thank you to everyone that made We Will Rock You the phenomenon it was. Ambitious from the get go and genuinely create core memories this week. The audience joining in with I Want It All is a personal highlight - I truly felt like a rockstar!

Thank you to everyone that came to support the show you cheers, whistles and standing ovations mean the world to me and everyone at

"They did it, for a Crazy Little Thing Called Love"

‼️‼️ Announcement ‼️‼️

I'm not quite sure where to start with this, and it may be a long post so bare with.

Just under 5 years ago lockdown ended, I was a brand new teacher and had put things in place to hit the ground running and start teaching.

The Men's Yoga Group was my first open class on my website and it was such a moment for me to have created a space for men to come and practice in a non judgemental and safe space because let's face it, yoga is predominantly practiced by women.

I am incredibly proud to have held that space since May of 2021 and it's been an absolute privilege to create that space for all of the guys that have stepped onto their mat with me.

So it is with a profound sadness (and without getting too emotional) that the Thursday night Men's Yoga Group will end on 30th April.

The class is simply no longer self sustaining and I cannot continue to fight to balance the books at the end of each month and keep things out of the red.

It's a decision that I have not made lightly or quickly, I've been wrestling with it for months because this space is so close to my heart and it is something I will struggle to let go of but it simply is the time to do so.

Thanks to everyone that has helped keep the session going for as long as it has, I appreciate you all. Thursday 7th May I'll be in the Purple Dog for a cold one to reflect on the class coming to an end, I invite any of you that have supported the class at any point to join me then!

I've shared slides about the Yamas and Niyamas recently but what are the differences and what do they help us practice?

The Niyamas are a set of personal observances that help promote awareness, growth and holistic health.

There are inner workings, self disciplined that if followed will teach us that everything starts from within us.

How do you practice the Niyamas?
