Nicola, A Space to Be Retreat, July 2025

Thank you for this Yoga, so much more than exercise. Yours is such a gentle compassionate practice and teaching. This combined with skill and the power of balance, movement and stillness, is very effective. I am benefiting greatly especially as movement is not usually a delight for me. I have found this term’s yoga to be settling, spacious and healing. I look forward to the next session.
