Friday Flourish evening retreat: Joy
What are these?
These are stand alone classes/events based around a certain theme.
I appreciate you might not want a regular class on a Friday evening so these are roughly once a month and are designed to give you time to flourish - physically, emotionally, spiritually.
Maybe you can’t commit to a weekly class but would like to come to a one-off; maybe you want to come with your friend; your mum; your sister; your daughter.
Maybe the last time you saw me was at a pregnancy or postnatal class but you would like to occasionally dip into an evening just for you.
Maybe you are intrigued about my style of teaching and this is a good way to see if my weekly classes will be a good fit.
Maybe you already come to my women’s classes and want more.
These are just for women (my specialism).
Please don't worry about your level of experience; your age; fitness; flexibility; or any other self-imposed doubts which might be creeping in. Everyone is welcome with open arms, and if you are a seasoned yogi, there are lots for you too.
Just 90 mins of time for yourself 20.30-22.00 at our usual venue, Halton Village Hall.

After our October Friday Flourish, we have one remaining evening retreat in 2023 for November, based around the theme of 'A gift to yourself'.
The October Friday Flourish
Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognise how good things really are.
In our 90 mins together, we will explore joy: how to celebrate the small things; enjoying the journey; choosing joy; following your bliss; and pursuing passion. We will begin with a guided
meditation calling in more joy; practice the breath of joy; and then spend time exploring activities we find joyful through meditation or by journaling (in the kit provided) ideas with many examples to draw upon. Our mantra for the evening will be “I follow my bliss.”
Our physical practice mainly opens the hips, works the knees, and lower back. Our time will predominantly be split between standing and kneeling positions, with an overall focus on stretching and forward bends. Finally we will finish with a finding hope relaxation.
Everyone goes home with a goodie bag which includes a notebook, pen, cotton bag and Neal’s Yard Remedies Night Time Remedies to Roll, RRP £10.
The cost of the evening is £22 each and is limited to 10 attendees.
How do I book a space?
Please complete the booking form; full payment will be taken at the same time.
What do I need to bring?
I will provide all yoga equipment (mats, blankets, pillows, straps and eye masks) to use at your discretion. It is your choice if you would like to bring your own mat in addition to place on top.
I would advise that you bring a bottle of water and wear some loose comfortable clothes for your yoga practice, including layers so you can easily adjust depending on whether you are lying still in relaxation or being more physical.
