Testimonials
It was the final cure to my long-term allergy problems, by showing me how to balance out my acid/alkaline levels. After 17 years of Hatha yoga and multiple injuries it has shown me how to work gently with myself, yet reach deep into my inner substance to challenge my hatha yoga practices. The 7-day chakra retreat totally energised me and put me in place, a great foundation for a deeper personal home practice of meditation and asana. Natalie's approach of teaching incorporates and harnesses the disciplines and energies of yoga whilst also accommodating the practicalities of our busy 21st century lifestyles. Andrew
Thanks Nat, great workshop as always, you hold a really inspired space, your so easy to drop down into relaxation with or into some invigorating, challenging yoga. You also make everything fun, intuitive and intelligent as we all learn greater ways to evolve and live in better health. Dean Bennett
