Katie A

Katie first discovered yoga 8 years ago when she was studying at university. In 2016 she became more fascinated with the practice, going to classes almost every day in and around Manchester, Bikram hot yoga and Ashtanga were her go to. Her personal practice has evolved over the years, she’s learned to listen more to her body and what she needs. “What I love about yoga, is that it’s not about what it looks like, but more about how it feels.” “The practice is your own personally journey inward, as a practitioner I am there to guide you to find out what feels good for you.” In 2018 I packed up my corporate life in Manchester and headed to India for 8 months of travel, seeking as much yoga as possible - it was here that I completed my 200 hour YTT. Since then I have completed a 50 hour Yin teacher training and spent 3 months in Bali delving deeper into my own personal practice. Off the mat Katie is a bit of a travel addict, she loves seeing the world and experiencing all types of cultures and of course yoga. In the last year Katie as been building her brand “Calm with Katie” where she combines all of her knowledge in mindset, movement and meditation to approach the world of coaching. Her go to mantra for life is “feel the fear and do it anyway” - encouraging herself and others to step into their power whether that’s on or off the mat. Katie’s classes are open for all levels, she offers variations throughout encouraging you to listen to your body and reminding you that this is a personal practice. Somedays may be slow and intuitive whilst others may feel a little more powerful, she encourages students to approach their practice with an open mind and an open heart. ❤️ She cannot wait to meet you all and share pockets of knowledge on this wonderful ancient practice.

Lucy Baby Massage

Before discovering baby massage & baby yoga 2 years ago, Lucy was a nursery practitioner and a part of the nursery management team. She worked with babies and young children for 8 years, mainly working with babies ages 6 weeks - 12 months. She loved everything about my job as a nursery practitioner, but chose to leave after having her son, so she could spend some time at home with him. She wanted something new to get stuck into and I knew she still wanted to have base a career around working with children, and with a bit of research she discovered baby massage and knew it would be something she would enjoy learning about. She loves that she can pass the skills onto other parents & babies! Due to her last job, she has a good understanding of babies development and has lots of experience in working alongside parents. She understands being a parent, though it’s the greatest gift of all, can be challenging. She welcomes and encourages all parents to be completely themselves during classes, with no fear of judgment. In her spare time, Lucy’s favourite way to spend her time is with her family, having day trips and time outdoors. She also enjoys dog walks in the sunshine ☀️ and craft activities such as diamond art!

My classes and workshops are mixture of fun, hard work and ultimate relaxation. I just LOVE teaching our Sunshine and Soul community! I’m passionate in my role as a trauma-informed practitioner and believe that practicing yoga & fitness massively helps with both mental and physical health. As an ex-dancer, my classes combine creative sequencing, a spirit of playfulness and banging playlists; focusing on the breath as the bridge between the mind, body and soul. I want to help you get strong, subtle and FEEL GOOD! I’m a mama to my amazing little girl and would love to share my passion for yoga and all of its benefits with other mums - hence the creation of ‘NOT JUST A MUM CLUB.’ Becoming a mama is life changing and tough and magical all rolled into one, so trust me when I say...I GET IT! Yoga is one of the tools that helps me come back home to myself and find a place of calm and connection; plus practising with my little angel really helps strengthen our bond...I cannot WAIT to share that with you too!

Hey I'm Mel - I’ve been practicing yoga for almost eight years and guiding others in to it for the last four. Like many, I first came to yoga from a physical perspective but it quickly became my sanctuary and has brought me home to myself more times than I care to admit. For me yoga is a lifestyle, a headspace and a great way to find balance both on and off the mat, and provides me with the tools to build not only physical but mental stamina as well as creating healthy habits for life. My classes are friendly and welcoming with a relaxed vibe and a sprinkle of challenge. Every *body* is invited and individual differences celebrated. Whether you are new to yoga or have a regular practice, you will be encouraged to go at your own pace and listen to your own body's wants and needs in the moment. We use the pose to get in to the body rather than the body to get in to the pose - the outcome is not the true goal, but the challenge itself. Come and join me on the mats for a delicious dose of YOU time.

Description

An all rounder of a class combining elements of traditional Hatha and flowing vinyasa yoga for a full body stretch and strengthening practice. The perfect weekend combo, infused with a healthy dose of mindful relaxation, breath awareness and connection, and a gentle yet energising flow ~ your mind and body will thank you.

This class is mixed ability, suitable for beginners and appropriate for anyone of any age, shape or size. No previous experience required - come as you are.
