People that attend our retreats are friendly bunch and we just found out that someone from our last yoga holiday in Japan is coming along again.

Everyone’s welcome as Naomi is used to teaching all levels of students including beginners and experienced students. In her last retreat, there were yoga teachers as well as people who never done yoga before. Also wide range of ages from people in their teens to 70’s, which makes her retreats wonderfully varied and fun.

It's absolutely stunning in Chamonix, so come along if you can :)

Gentle Yoga and Meditation for Peace Event

“In a world troubled by war, civil unrest, political tension, and personal conflict, yoga’s ability to relieve stress and foster inner calm offers a potent tool for promoting peace,” Diana O’Reilly, BWY Chair.

We've just joined Yoga for Peace Movement with the British Wheel of Yoga. This event is intended to harness yoga's power to release tension and cultivate calm, creating personal and communal healing. 

We have chosen a gentle and inclusive form of yoga and meditation practice to foster a welcoming environment where everyone can unite in the shared intention of peace and hope.  You can read more about this event on our blog.

This session is taking place on Saturday 13th July from 11-12pm and it’s available to attend online or in-person. All levels of students including complete beginners welcome. Please book in advance through our website.
