An online yoga and meditation course including full length vinyasa flow yoga classes, short lectures, guided meditations and bonus material that you can work through in your own time and revisit as often as you like.
Cost: £39
This online course explores the five basic elements from an experiential internal perspective. We’ll look at physical as well as mental expressions of the elements – from the more obvious to the more subtle. This can be a powerful way to experiment with movement, deepen our understanding of the mind, and help body, heart and mind to feel balanced.
The course consists of 5 modules, plus additional resources and bonus material – about 8 hours of material. Each module builds on the last. You can explore each module for a few days before moving on to the next, or you can move back and forth between modules at your own self-guided pace.
We’ll explore the qualities of the elements:
Earth – solidity
hardness, roughness, heaviness, softness, smoothness, lightness
Water – fluidity
cohesion, flowing
Fire – temperature
heat, cold
Air – movement
supporting, pushing
Space – emptiness

Please read this additional information before purchasing the course
I’m delighted if you can benefit from these practices. And I also acknowledge that different things work for different people.
The vinyasa flow classes require a general level of fitness. I offer modifications both to increase accessibility, as well as create more challenges (that are not suitable for everyone). Please keep yourself (and your furniture) safe and always work within a pain-free range!
You have the privilege and the responsibility to look after your own health and wellbeing. Rest whenever you need to.
Please listen to my voice – more than looking at the screen – to keep your neck happy. You may prefer to position your screen towards the top left corner of the mat – which might give you the easiest view most often :).
If you are at all unsure whether these practices are suitable for you, please don’t participate. Just as a little disclaimer: please note that by participating in these sessions you agree that you do so at your own risk, and assume all risk of injury to yourself. You agree to release me of any claims or causes of action known or unknown arising out of these sessions.
Meditation is a beneficial tool for self-development for many, but doesn’t work for everyone. If you have any concerns, please speak to a health care professional before signing up to the course.
Cost: £39
Including unlimited course access, around 3.5hrs of video and audio material, and email support for questions – just get in touch with me.

My practice and teaching
I started my teaching journey in 2009 and now teach yoga, mindfulness and meditation at a senior level. I teach online worldwide, and at studios in London. I also train new yoga and meditation teachers.
My flowing vinyasa yoga classes interweave yoga philosophy and thoughts on the psychology of the mind with intelligent and imaginative sequences. Connection to the breath, attention to alignment, exploration of functional movement, and encouragement to develop clarity and awareness off the mat are integral to my teaching.
My mindfulness and meditation practice and teaching draws from my background in Vipassana (Insight) – a Buddhist approach to meditation based on the Theravada lineage, but universally valid independent of any religious believes. Developing mindful awareness and a calm abiding in the present moment are central to the practice.
My classes, courses, workshops and retreats cover a range of subjects including mindfulness, self-compassion, resilience, eastern philosophy, modern psychology, neuroscience and more.
