Hello! I'm Hely, a Wiltshire based yoga teacher, student & explorer!

  Yoga is & has been a wonderful teacher & ally in this funny old world we live in & I feel both lucky & excited to share & grow my learnings with others. From an injury-stricken & slightly reluctant newbie 12 years ago, to having the opportunity teach now, yoga has & will continue to be an ever-evolving journey of discovery, acceptance & connection. The beauty of that journey is how deeply personal it is - in creating the space for curious & humble self-enquiry we open the dialogue between body & mind, cultivating awareness & learning to really inhabit ourselves; to feel, explore & connect. 

  I first trained out in India with Trimurti Yoga in 2013, focusing on vinyasa flow & hatha, & traditional philosophies; a brilliant foundation. As my personal practise softened & I became more interested in exploring more organic movement patterns I sought new learnings. This year I completed a 50 hour Yin Myofascial Release 5 elements & Qi Gong with Beta Lisboa & Sai Calder, which was both fascinating & timely, I'm excited to learn more with them in the future. I then embarked on a further 200 hours with Gemma Mallol & her wonderful team at Still Flowing Yoga. Somatic & Scaravelli inspired, with a strong focus on embodied mindfulness & trauma release, the course was beyond brilliant & has nourished my own personal journey in ways I could not have even imagined.

  I'm excited by freedom of movement & self-learning; in letting our bodies be our very best teachers & in yoga being a ever-generous gateway to play, explore, learn & grow; to breathe deep full breaths & ground ourselves to the earth with compassion & respect. Now (very luckily!) living on the border of the Savernake Forest, I invite nature into my classes more & more, using it as both inspiration & guidance as we all strive to surrender to our own personal flows.
