A Space to Be

A Space to Be is a yoga studio, therapy space and place of retreat in Shilbottle Northumberland. Escape the busy-ness of every day life and step into our quiet corner of calm.

Lucy Maresh uses movement, relaxation, massage, and meditation to help people learn about themselves and make life easier. Her classes are grounded in traditional yoga philosophy and include a holistic balance of practices for body, breath, mind, heart and soul.

I had arrived feeling depleted, weary in body and mind but in less than 24 hours I was leaving feeling my equilibrium had been restored – I felt nurtured, replenished and more energised than I had been in a long while and I know I shall continue to reap the rewards of my stay.

“A quick note to say how we enjoyed our visit. It was a real breathing space and we loved the personalisation and attention to detail.

We felt very much cared for and held.

I am doing my exercises!”
