Quiet. First thing in the morning. The time of day before anyone else is up. That time of stillness. The time to re-establish a spacious perspective that allows us to truly see our lives & understand where we are. To see with clarity. Taking just a few minutes each day to sit in quiet contemplation, it sets me up for the day.

Join me live online Monday 10th for a meditation practice. Time to create space for meditation, create space for movement, create space to come back to the core of you. This is a free offering, simply sign up here to receive the class link.

Our January offering is a mixture of online and in person classes. An offering of yoga, meditation, nidra. We will begin each Monday morning of January with a 20 minute meditation. Start each week with a beginner’s mindset. Understand how to embrace meditation as a tool that becomes less novelty or a nice thing to try but rather an anchor that holds you to what’s essential.

Āsana (movement) with the mantra of beginning, renewing, resetting, recalibrating, regroup for 2022. This is the start to a new year, it is a fresh start or even a restart. Set aside time & space to come back to yourself & draw back to your inner life. Our movement practices in January will be all about action setting. Embrace poses you know so well but with a new mindset, see where this takes you. Āsana classes will begin Tuesday 04th at 10am.

I can already feel the spark of joy the spark of excitement about getting back to you all x

Thank you so much for the year that we shared together in yoga. We gathered online for yoga, education, music events, Nidra events. We gathered in the park and at the beach where we practiced yoga under the rising sun. We gathered in the evening at Seapoint to watch miraculous sunsets. We gathered at Lisnavagh and at Airfield. Thank you so much.

If you are in Dublin on Sunday 19th and fancy meeting me at The Forty Foot to light a candle and set an intention for this coming year I would love to see you at 7.45am.

Here’s a playlist I curated for this darker winter season, perhaps you will have it on during class. I will be playing it but feel free to tune into it when you feel the call. We moved through this music while practicing at Lenehan’s, it’s joyful and will allow you to move gently.
