Hi I’m Catherine and I teach yoga, meditation and intuitive workshops. As a yoga teacher and intuitive/clairvoyant I truly believe we all possess the gift of intuition, that we all have the ability to still, to come into our hearts and to connect with the divine on a deep level. We, as humans, are all the bridge between Heaven and Earth, here to walk between the worlds, to fully embrace both our humanity and our divinity, and I am here to help you reclaim that. To peel back the layers, the conditioning, the stories, the forgetting so that you can be who you came here to be. Through my classes my vision is to bring you back into communication with your soul and be able to take grounded action to align with the nudges that it is calling you towards. Everything I do is here to put you back in touch with your own magic and your joy and to help you fully embody your connection to the divine.

I feel so lucky to have trained with some incredible teachers across an array of styles in the 16 years of my yoga journey. My passion is to seed intuitive, authentic movement in every body through sharing a practice that is accessible & enjoyable whilst honouring & celebrating our deep interconnection to the incredible living web we all form part of. I hope to explore with you soon :) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/patternsofnature

Flo has spent many years studying and practicing yoga and meditation, creating more space in her life for balance, peace, autonomy and freedom. She is a daughter, a sister, a mother, a wife. She is a producer, a yoga teacher, a doula, a photographer and an avid student of the human experience. She dreams of creating a full time retreat space someday somewhere warm. The body's astonishing capacity to heal itself and the intrinsic wisdom it holds plays a key role in her personal practice and teaching. She is passionate about reconnecting people to tune into their own interoceptive wisdom to discover and empower the teacher within each and every one of us. Flo discovered the wonder of yoga in 2006 and originally trained ten years later in Baron Baptiste's Power Yoga. Power Yoga is a great fitness practice with emphasis on alignment. She has since diversified after discovering Embodied Flow yoga, a school of somatic movement which is explored within the container of yoga. Embodied Flow combines deep philosophy (rooted in the school of tantra) and somatic freedom, with a very functional understanding of biomechanics and anatomy. She uses both schools to guide and inspire the practices she shares today. Using meditation, asana, somatic movement and awareness of breath, she encourages you to explore your physicality in a way that grounds and enlivens, deepening the connection you have with yourself. Flo will also share workshops which will include exploring full somatic movement and expression, nervous system regulation, support for families through her work as a doula and a more in depth workshop series, called Feel Your Flow, which will explore the ways in which yoga (and more) can support women during their menstrual cycle.

I have been a practitioner of yoga for 30 years and recently went deeper into my studies with the Daoist Flow Teacher Training at Triyoga in London. I love to explore a wide variety of practices that create feelings of ease, strength and vitality in the body and mind, borrowing liberally from asana, qigong and somatics. I particularly value the teachings which connect our individual selves into deeper relationship with nature and with our communities - our friends, partners, children and family. I am currently studying Ayurveda as a broader context to all of this work and look forward to sharing these practices with you.
